THE QUILL are a Swedish rick band that plays in the Stoner Rock, & Hard Rock playground for a long time. Thee band has been on a hiatus for many year and decided to re-isssue all of their releases. This one is one of them.
"Voodoo Caravan" was and is still excellent and actual Rock, even if it sounds a lot of the time …the nineties. We have twelve songs here. I try to be impartial but its hard for me since I really dig their music. I discovered them while reviewing them and i don’t know why I’ve never heard of them before but it’s about time! They play great inspired Rock, with very entertaining and catchy songs.
For example, the title is quire a killer one with its groove and riffing.
"Sell no Soul" is a riff driven master and it rocks the place hard.You can’t remain passive while listening to their music.
"Shapes of Afterlife" is very dynamic and quite a nice trip for bass lovers. Always energetic, always powerfully rendered, always the quill.
"Wade Across the Mighty River" is a song that's surely being inspired by
Robert Plant. It has his soul and feel all the way through this. It's a beautifully smooth, acoustic song.
"Overlord" also reminds me of the mighty
LED ZEPPELIN, but it’s nicely done without doing the copycat thing. "Hole in my Head starts up with a little electronics in the bass to pursue, and then ascension to massive peak levels of Mt Rock n Roll.
This album is pure rock and entertainment.I highly recommend it. Do yourself a favor…listen to it!
