![]() Over the last few albums the Zeppelin influences have become less apparent though still appearing at times. Mike Miley is a drummer very much in the John Bonham tradition playing with the requisite power and groove but having the subtlety for the light and shade parts when needed. Apparently they allowed themselves only 30 days to write and record the album but it doesn’t show as it’s very mature sounding and song quality doesn’t suffer. I’d read somewhere that the band were diversifying their sound for this one but to be honest whilst it’s a very good album it seems pretty much business as usual.Īnyone familiar with Rival Sons will know what to expect – retro bluesy hard rock, immediately recognisable by Jay Buchanan’s soulful vocals very much in the tradition of the great seventies vocalists like Robert Plant and Steve Marriott. Rival Sons return with their fifth album Hollow Bones after a mere 2 years, quite fast by today’s standards as long gone are the days (70’s) when you could rely on a band releasing a new album every year.
