BLUES CREATION “DEMON & THE ELEVEN CHILDREN” (Japanese Blow Up)) W OBI

BLUES CREATION “DEMON & THE ELEVEN CHILDREN” (JAPANESE BLOW UP) W OBI 197? Nic copy of psych classic. Jacket: VG + (It is very beautiful except for the tape peeling marks on the jacket RIGHT SIDE in the photo.) disc VG++ couple scuffs, small hairlines. this is a real triumph of early hard stuff. The riffs and execution are tough, energetic and pretty forward thinking (meaning it sounds more like the future of heavy rock than the past). Not as eccentric as Flower Travellin’ Band, but also way more confident than many other heavy/psych Japanese bands, this makes me really want to grab the rest of their stuff. Even the longer, more involved tracks pack a real punch of fuzzed out guitars, Sabbath-like arrangements and general great stuff. Excellent production and good vocals help as well. Very recommended. “Demon & Eleven Children” is a gritty, smoky slice of bluesy jammy rock with a strong backbone. One thing is for damn sure, these guys can riff; the guitar playing throughout is damn impressive, with some solos that really rip. I can feel the energy coming through on moments like the colossal “Just I Was Born” which perfectly exemplify everything I need from a group like this – heavy riffs and interesting progressions that will keep my head slamming furiously throughout.
