LUCIFER Debut Features Former CATHEDRAL Guitarist Garry Jennings
April 23, 2015, 9 years ago
Following the premature demise of The Oath, Johanna Sadonis formed Lucifer. Whilst The Oath was a much-celebrated band, she wasted no time in creating a new beast to go beyond previous limitations. That beast is Lucifer and this is their debut album titled Lucifer I, featuring their debut single, "Anubis”, which was released earlier in 2015.
With the addition of Garry Jennings (Cathedral, Death Penalty) as co-songwriter and studio guitarist, Lucifer have moved forward into a realm of rock music which is very rare and very special in this time. Genuine, classic, heavy, studied and passionate are just a few words that instantly spring to mind upon first listen, according to a press release. Lucifer's instinctive take on the very soul of early heavy metal is the electrified essence of rock n’ roll at its nascent purest. This is Magic Rock - heartfelt and holistic.
Eschewing the now well-worn clichés of the 'occult-rock explosion' in favour of a truthful and tempestuous re-imagining of classic '70s proto-metal and turbocharged blues, the eight songs on this band's debut album crackle and fizz with burgeoning energy and the compelling conviction of music made for all the right reasons.
Lucifer I tracklisting:
“Purple Pyramid”
“Izrael”
“Sabbath”
“White Mountain”
“Morning Star”
“Total Eclipse”
“A Grave For Each One Of Us”
