The Sword's guitar heavy new LP Apocryphon

Another year in music is about to come to close but not before another LP by The Sword.  These guys just know how to make that sludge metal rock straight from the 1970's.  Their sound reminds me of Black Sabbath and Motorhead.  If you're a fan of either of those, then go and grab all The Sword LPs.  They're from Austin, TX so you know they can rock. 

Their new LP is called Apocryphon and here's the title track.  Don't really need to talk about it because it just rocks. 


"The Veil of Isis" is not only a great title from Apocryphon but a damn rockin' song.  The guitar rifs these guys play are killer.  I don't know many bands that rock like these guys post 1980's.  I tend to talk about much milder bands but sometimes you just want music to kick your teeth in. 


"Tres Brujas" was from their LP Warp Riders.  Just thought to play one of their older songs.   I really dig this crazy journey through the desert with swords and guitars.  Oh yeah, and attractive women. What's not to like?
