Voodoo Six – ‘Simulation Game’ (Explorer1 Music)

Posted by | Feb 24, 2020 | ,

Voodoo Six are set to release their latest album, ‘Simulation Game’, next Friday (6 March), via Explorer1. Mixed by founding member Tony Newton, the ten-track album was recorded at the Barnyard studio of Iron Maiden founder and bassist Steve Harris. Not for a long time have I so helplessly fallen in love with an album on first listen so trust me, it’s an absolute belter! They flesh out their melodies with orchestral arrangements, creating an album that is like no other and profoundly enjoyable.

There’s something remarkably satisfying about a well-executed hardcore album. When an upcoming band delivers a record chock full of fist-swinging, adrenaline pumping mosh songs, it feels as rewarding as the exact moment a long-blocked drain finally clears and ‘Power Through Terror’ is one such example. The third release from Boston’s Great American Ghost is an abrasive and antagonistic number that sets a high standard for all the other hardcore albums due in 2020. They’re not as well-known as the likes of Code Orange or Knocked Loose, but expect that to have changed by the time the year comes to a close.

Order, order… yes, folks, we’re taking orders at the bar (we’ll have two double JDs, thank you very much) as the latest edition of the Singles Club opens for business, with Judge Monk and the Dark Queen herself presiding over the latest batch of almost 300 submissions and delivering their verdict on the ones that have tickled their aural cortexes and wormed their way into their eardrums over the past couple of weeks…
