GLORY OR DEATH RECORDS Compilation Series 'Bow To Your Masters Vol. Two: DEEP PURPLE' Out May 7th!
Friday April 30 2021, 2:48 PM
The California underground heavy rock and metal specialists at Glory or Death Records present the second installment of its ' Bow To Your Masters ' compilation series paying tribute to some of the best in classic heavy rock. Early 2018 produced the first-round with Volume One: Thin Lizzy . In 2020, the label began to gather some of Planet Earth’s finest underground rock ‘n rollers to come together for a massive tribute to the legendary heavy rock pioneer act Deep Purple .
Kelley Juett (Mothership) recently announced his new project Topsy Kretts is covering “ Black Night ”:
"Buddy had a band drop off the Deep Purple comp and the first song that came to mind was Black Night when he asked if I wanted to throw down on a track. That song had been a song me, my brother Kyle and dad, Big J, used to work up to jam on when we would play 4 hour long blues/rock cover sets. I always dug the chug vibe on the verse riff.
Me and Dave were talking about doing it and recruited Mucho to rip the drums, David Kent on bass, then the Crobot boys - Brandon Yeagley to rip some vocals, and Chris Bishop to slap some stank on the guitar. I tried my best to pay homage to the man, Richie Blackmore with my guitar work... even busted out the ol’ strat, so expect tons of tremolo action and some cool stereo panning during the marathon solo! I recruited Jeff Owens to help me track my guitar and do the mixing on the song. Another Glory or Death release... another ripper of a comp!"
From legendary heavy bands such as YOB and Mos Generator to newer projects like Asphodel Wine and Big Scenic Nowhere , come wrap your mind around this list of fifteen bands and recording details that Glory or Death Records has involved in the upcoming ' Volume Two: Deep Purple' tribute...
