The Sun sets, vainly fighting to the last illuminating ray of light to dominate the landscape. However, the age old battle ends the same way as always... The Night takes over and sweet darkness covers the land. Once again the creatures of the night emerge from thier lairs and roam the land during these precious hours given to them by the victorious night. And as every night that has come before... each soul that lives for and thrives in the shadows and the darkness, prays in it’s own way that perhaps, some time in the future... the dawn will never come. Between the light from the failing sun and the setting of the moon, this is when you must expect the unexpected. A time when anything is possible...somethings are just more likely.
This is the time of Gothic Blues.
Gothic Blues is music from the heart and soul ... Corporate produced cd’s will traditionally have songs that will include all instruments. One can easily expect to hear 2 guitars, a bass, drums and vocals on each and every song ... but, Gothic Blues is not a traditional band, what each song needs determines what is used ... one song maybe just 2 guitars, another may have 3 guitars, a bass, drums, vocals and keyboards. Not every song will have lyrics, over half are instrumentals and the songs that do have lyrics are not always sung. Not all songs have the "manditory" solo, some however have several solos
The music of GOTHIC BLUES isn’t for everyone... Those who enjoy only "formula rock" and "standard pop music" will be confused and feel left out, but, I will not lower the bar so that they will be able to "get it" ...I am not worried about those who don’t, won’t or can’t understand what I am doing...That is always the way, they can stay in the safety zone provided by local radio stations, continue to be mindless pawns of the record companies and be lead by thier friends who tell them what to watch, what to wear, who to associate with and what is cool.

My Interests

Music:

Member Since: 1/29/2006
Band Website: gothicblues.com
Band Members: D.W. Smith, and Spooky
Influences: Stevie Ray Vaughan, Black Sabbath,W.A.S.P., Slash, Randy Rhoads, Ozzy Osbourne, Rob Zombie / White Zombie, Metallica, The Alan Parsons Project, Pink Floyd
Sounds Like: Spooky and I like to think of it as a mixture of Blues and the Macabre with a Metal Edge. Or perhaps, It's what you would expect if you ripped someone from the Medieval Age... turned them onto the Blues and had them play through Heavy Metal gear.

It has also been described as a blending of Tony Iommi (Black Sabbath) and Stevie Ray Vaughan.

Well, It's what you get when you take a whole lot of Delta and Electric Blues, throw in some Heavy Metal and give it all a Medieval / Gothic vibe, Stir all of this in a mind infected with a touch of Insanity and let it ferment in a soul that is Dark and Hungers for Knowledge-Forbidden.

Party music for... the Undead
Record Label: Sanitarium Studio
Type of Label: Indie
