Red Fang aus Portland gehören zu den heißesten Hardrock-Bands. Nach ihrer zweijährigen Tour durch die ganze Welt, bringen sie nun endlich ihr neues Studioalbum heraus. Auf dem neuen Album findet man neben dem brillanten und ausgereiften Songwriting und Arrangements auch ganz viel Humor. Mit Hilfe der beiden Ausnahmegastmusiker Mike Scheidt (Yob) und Pall Jenkins (The Black Heart Procession) beschleunigt "Whales And Leeches" Red Fang in die obere Stratosphäre des Hardrock und der Metal-Elite. Red Fang waren schon immer wahre Meister des klassischen Hardrock-Hooks, und mit dem neuen Album liefern sie elf Killersongs, die sofort zu klassischen Hymnen werden. Eine Empfehlung für alle Fans von Baroness, Mastodon, Graveyard, Black Sabbath, The Sword, Clutch und Kylesa.

"On the night of November 6th, 1979 Black Sabbath was at their most drug addled and explosive standing. They were on tour supporting their newly released „Never Say Die“ album and had a night off in LA. After knocking back a few drinks at the infamous Rainbow Bar, they decided to check out the local rock scene at the Whiskey A-Go-Go. Arriving late, they caught the tail end of a set by The Circle Jerks. Feeling intimidated yet inspired, they rented a rehearsal space and spent the rest of the night jamming. For an unknown reason they exclusively played Thin Lizzy material and Keith Moon was sitting in… These events never took place. But if they did, the results may have sounded similar to Los Angeles’s The Shrine. Formed in 2008, The Shrine play a houserocking breed of heavy, psychedelic, riff based Rock‘n‘Roll. Their debut, recorded on vintage reel-to-reel tape, by local hero Dave O. Jones and under the auspices of the notorious Chuck Dukowski (Black Flag), is the perfect soundtrack to any debaucherous gathering of longhairs. If you and your rag-tag group of riff-raff friends are planning a road trip to Humboldt County to “Score”, this is the album you need to be listening to on the way. If instead you seek to drain and skate your neighbors swimming pool, „Primitive Blast“, the sophmore album on perfect-fit label Tee Pee Records is what you will require. After infamous jaunts across the USA and Europe with the likes of Fu Manchu and Graveyard, The Shrine have world domination in their cross-hairs and the grinds to back it up."-Harley Rother
