Freeways ‘Dark Sky Sanctuary’ (Dying Victims Productions)

,

Four years ago, Canadian hard rockers Freeways released their debut album ‘True Bearings’, a hugely impressive debut that fused the sound of classic hard rock from the second half of the ’70s with the verve of early NWoBHM with real authenticity. Four years later, following the sad demise of their previous record company, Freeways have now linked up with Dying Victims Productions for that long overdue follow up album ‘Dark Sky Sanctuary’.

With grassroots venues closing at a rate of knots and local promoters pulling out of the local music scene, it makes a great change to find one of each who are bucking the trend and we at Über Rock try to support both of these when we can, all across the Überverse.

The Über Rock Singles Club Daily Pick – The Chesterfield KIngs

, , ,

Monk’s latest hot pick sees us getting ‘Electrified’ by the Noo Yawk garage rockers named after their favourite brand of cigarettes… and both are definitely smokin’. Having come storming back after 15 years in “retirement”, the KIngs joined forces with the legend that is Stevie Van Zandt for this second single, which recalls the day Bob Dylan confounded and shocked the world by picking up an electric guitar for the first time…
