Hateful Agony - Home Sweet Hell - COMPACT DISCS [CD]

Vinyl LP pressing. Howlin' Wolf was one of the most charismatic and exciting performers in the history of blues music. Standing six feet three inches he was a mountain of a man whose menacing vocal and low down 'n' dirty delivery greatly influenced a whole generation of rockers who followed. Born Chester Burnett, Wolf was one of the most important and influential figures in Chicago Blues through the 1950s. Rougher-edged than Muddy Waters, the intensity of Wolf's performance prompted Sun Records impresario, Sam Phillips, to observe When I heard Howlin' Wolf, I said 'This is for me. This is where the soul of man never dies'. This 16-track LP features the bluesman's best-loved songs from the first decade or more of his recording career, comprising songs from his 1951 debut recording for Phillips in Memphis, through to 1962 by which time commercial blues had become focused on the middle-class, white student market as much as it's traditional black roots. A fitting tribute to one of the true greats of the blues.

2023 . The Cold Light Of Day is the debut album from The Cold Blooded Hearts. Formed in 2015, The Cold Blooded Hearts are fronted by QPR's former player and current manager Gareth Ainsworth (formerly of Wimbledon and Wycombe Wanderers) along with guitarist and songwriter Lee-Van Sergeant, drummer Luke 'Chalky' Sergeant and bass guitarist Ron Campbell. Gareth Ainsworth has been into music since he was a boy and recently released a storming cover of Dion's hit classic 'The Wanderer'. The single was dedicated to the success of Wycombe Wanderers and became an unofficial anthem for the club. Lee and Gareth have been in bands together for twenty years. They formed Dog Chewed The Handle back in 2004, after which Luke then joined as the drummer. Now known as The Cold Blooded Hearts, they have released their first ever album, summarizing their many years of writing together. This album was produced by Yes keyboardist, Geoff Downes -now that's rock 'n' roll football!

Razor-sharp riffs, some wicked melodic solos, a groovy-thick rhythm section and a truly hysteric and menacing vocal delivery (courtesy of new frontman Mathias Uldall) - not to forget the subtle, brilliant songwriting variety surfacing here and there. Lyrically, 'Hatred Reborn' revolves around the subject of man's fascination with evil. Every single human being is drawn to some kind of darkness be it through factual events or fictional scenarios, Hatesphere know how to deal with the seasons in the abyss.
