Need the Perfect Soundtrack for Bike Week? Modern Day Outlaw’s “Devilscorned” is it!

When I saw the album imagery for Modern Day Outlaw’s album Through the Gates of Hell, my first thought was this is going to be some raunchy motorcycle club kick ass rock n’ roll of the type that I would hear on the soundtracks for episodes of Sons of Anarchy or The Mayans, and I was totally correct! Right from the opening riff of “Devilscorned” into the wrenching scream, I could tell this would be a scorcher. There are aspects of it that remind me of Pantera’s Cowboy from Hell album, but I’d most closely relate it to Zakk Wylde’s band, Black Label Society, a band I could totally see these dudes opening for.

“Surrender” by the Power Trio of Stoner Doom Metal that is Craetor is an EP that Everyone Should Be Cranking Up!

From the intro filled with heavily distorted fuzzy guitar that any stoner metal fan would love to their final track, “Wither” with its sick leads layered on top of the fuzz, these dudes bring the rock. Their second track, “Riot”, is my favorite. The fuzzy guitar harkens back to The Melvins or Kyus or Clutch or to more recent bands like Weedeater. The vocals are nasty and gritty in all the ways that feel good to my metal loving ears. Drums and bass lock into a great groove especially during the wah heavy guitar solo that crescendos with a throaty wail. When the song ends, I find myself wishing there was more even though the punk rocker in me almost always prefers shorter songs.
