New wave of what? British heavy metal? Not exactly… Solenoid
emerge straight from the Belgian foundations of metal and rock.
Heavy Metal? Not quite… Solenoid carry more in their navigating
thick soup of – let’s face it – music than the metal of their peers
who are still stuck into the simple steel driven alternative for the
heavy genre. This new wave of Belgian heavy rock ‘n roll could
do the trick. These five scruffy rock addicts had been playing in
almost every guitar based band in and around their hometown
Genk. Fucking up the best elements of whatever they were into
at that time, Solenoid’s engine got oiled with the best of what was
yet to come: a break necking view on the past decades of rock ‘n
metal. How furiously are Solenoid that they make Lemmy seem
ironic and leave him ‘Out In The Cold’? They exhume the ‘Angelspray’
of the old dark clouded Sabbath. Even some blistering
punkabilly swing or old school riffing taught by the iron lady of
Dickinson and his gang. Tours with Gwar, Anvil and Valis already
showed a great deal of Solenoid’s open mindedness, going from
metal over rock to stoner. And if Chris Tsangarides doesn’t ring a
bell, here you go… Judas Priest, Exodus, Thin Lizzy, Black Sabbath
and… Solenoid have Chris’ name somewhere mentioned in
their liner notes. With references like these you can’t go wrong.
No nonsense bullshit or over the top shredding posers but straight
to the bone in you face heavy rock music as it was supposed to
sound like when the foundations were laid.
