The Gentlemen Of Distorted Sound, that we will simply call GODS, is a new band from England. Between Stoner and Alternative Rock, this band could become one of the revelations of the year 2007. Their sound is cool, their music is good and "Black AM" their first album is a really nice piece of music so, if you want to listen to some nice Rock songs, you should quickly have a look on this release, I'm sure that you'll like it, even if you're more into Metal than Rock in general.

For a first album, "Black AM" is a nice surprise and it's cool to see that the band already have a really good musical maturity. Between Stoner and Alternative Rock, the music of GODS is pleasant and I clearly believe that it will be something for the ones who like Rock a la Red Hot like Stoner a la Spiritual Beggars or Monster Magnet. Because on a side yes, "Black AM" is a bit like a mix between classic heavy and loud Stoner Rock and Alternative Rock a la Red Hot Chili Pepper. As an example a song like "Beautiful Face Of Evil" with its funky rhythm clean guitars and really melodic vocals will remind you the music of the Californians. On the other hand, a song like "Electric" is heavier and has this crunchy guitar overdrive sound that you can find in general in the music of the Stoner combos. As you can see, it's varied and believe me, it's never boring.

With a cool cover designed by the fantastic British fantasy painter Roger Dean with a fine recording and finally with a cool Digipack this CD is a beautiful thing. Really, you don't have to be a prue fan of Rock or Stoner to enjoy this album, if you simply like good guitars and nice vocals with catchy rhythms and nice melodies, I'm ready to be that you'll like this release. Without being revolutionary, "Black Am" is a great first album and if the band found the way to do a good promotion of this release, we should hear a lot of good things about them soon.

Remember this name, The Gentlemen Of Distorted Sound, because you can be sure that you'll hear some words about them soon. Their first album is a good piece of music and this is a promising debut album so be sure that you'll try to listen to "Black AM". If you like Rock N Roll, that's for you!
