Okay, I know it isn’t metal. It is, however hard blues rock, and I think that it’s close enough that maybe users here would still listen to this kind of thing alongside metal.

In any case, it’s fucking brilliant.

    For sure. Robert Johnson is a heck of a good starting point! Now that you mention it, I need to listen to some more pre-electric blues. There were some real giants in those days.

    Oddly enough, I came into classic rock (Led Zeppelin et. al.) from blues. The new wave / pop synth tunes I listened to in my teen years were pretty far removed from the roots of rock so the 60s and 70s rockers sounded like “icky old stuff” to kid me but I came around eventually lol.
