IDLEWAR - Rite (Sealed) (CD)

Southern California heavy blues hard rock trio Idlewar have upped their game with their second release. Singer/bass player James Blake solidifies why he is one of the best singers in rock today. With the record being produced by drummer Pete Pagonis, Rite maintain the inspiration and grit of their debut. Their singer, James, describes the record as "a Mad Max machine like convoy; a group of ferocious apocalyptic vehicles barreling through the wasteland full throttle...about to come apart at the hinges. Then every so often they slow or even stop to survey the landscape all the while contrasting their silhouette of destruction against a backdrop of serenity.
