Blind River – ‘Made of Dirt’ (Self-Released)

If ever there was a year for good times rock ‘n’ roll, 2020 would be it. While the world burns loudly outside, sometimes its good to just find a record that taps into a base desire for a good dance and sing – and if that’s the kind of thing you are seeking out, Blind River are your band. ‘Made of Dirt’ continues the journey the band first set out on their self-titled debut, drawing on a mixture of 70s and 80s hard rock greats to evoke the same sense of grease-and-grit that prevails over the pantheon of classic rock.

As the temperatures start to climb towards something resembling what is supposed to be summer, it’s hard to believe it’s been a fortnight since the Singles Club opened its virtual doors and we fired up the death decks with a selection of the finest single-track releases to have come our way in recent weeks. Yet, here we are again with another bumper pick of the crop – actually, for the second successive iteration it’s one of our biggest clubs in a long time, as once again we have just shy of two dozen tracks for your aural and visual delectation, whittled down from the 250+ submissions which have come our way over the past 14 days or so, and again hopefully containing something to tickle almost everyone’s musical taste buds as we traverse multiple subgenres of the glorious artform we like to refer to as rock ‘n’f’n’ roll…
