Cool hard rock with balls…and a vocalist whose voice immediately reminded us of John Kay. The Bias is the trio comprised of Ville Vilpponen (guitars, vocals, keys),Jaakko Vilpponen (drums, percussion), and Mina Eliott (bass). Recorded at San Francisco’s Tiny Telephone recording studio, Break The Light is one big solid blast of pure rock energy. These folks have a sound that seems particularly influenced by classic hard rockers from the 1970s. The rhythms are thick and ballsy…the guitars fuzzy and funky…and the vocals have that great gravelly sound that made Steppenwolf such a success. The band formed in 2010 in the Bay Area but they have now relocated to Finland. This is easily one of the the best hard rock albums we’ve heard in months. Gripping loud cuts include “In Time,” “Nine Lives,” “Patience Please,” “Embers,” and “Little Girl.” Highly recommended…WE LOVE IT. Top pick.
