Granit

Has anyone ever heard of the band GRANIT? Just checked out their new self-titled disc and it is pretty awesome. It's been getting constant spins in my cd player (along with High Noon).

 

I can't find much info on them though. I did find this page:

So has anybody else heard the new disc??

 

[T-BONE]

Yup.... It's one of the cd's in my rotation in my car right now. Great CD, but you can definately hear the guys accent in most of the tunes lol

[Doksdad]

I agree wiyth T.....the accent is the only thing holding this one back from being a regular in the rotation....

[melodicrockoz]

well if it's really like high noon then I'm gonna have to get it asap, thanks for the tip

[rob62972]

If anybody wants to hear this, shoot me a PM.

[heaven&hell]

If anybody wants to hear this, shoot me a PM.

 

Thanks Rob this is good stuff and the accent don't bother me at all.

Gotta give these guys credit. My main critisism of a lot of new bands is an overly safe and reserved approach to their CDs. Take those half a dozen bands starting with the letter 'H' over the past few years - Homerun, H.A.R.D etc. To me, they're just too average in every regard.

 

I do have to admit these guys are not bowling me over with overly memorable songs, but I have to give them credit for giving it a good ol' fashioned bash. The songs are high spirited, big riffs, great production job, balls and a good energetic effort. That's about all you can ask. Songs are mostly pretty decent. Looking forward to a killer follow-up to this. Nice effort. And the vocals aren't that bad.

[Stefan]

Not bad.
