Sven Gali - Spellbound

[Dead Planet]

 

[Doggy]

If this be going be on new album.

The album would be great, better than horrible second album.

[KarpetRydOFunk]

As Doggy implied, if they can maintain this quality for an entire album, that would be great. Real cool cover.

[KarpetRydOFunk]

The twelve string with the candle overlayed made me laugh. ;}

[Geoff]

Had to google it - apparently a Triumph song. Not sure I ever heard it, but yes, it's a cool cover indeed. More of this quality would be appreciated. 

How many of these dudes played on the debut, out of curiosity?

Gil Moore walking into the studio at the start was all I needed to know that it was a Triumph cover.

I'm jealous of your ability to recognise that. I wish I was alive when these guys were in their prime. 

What I'm saying is, you're old.

Good cover of a great song

There is new drummer and a guitarist as original line up had past away.

They have had a lot of drummers over years .

This song will definitely be on the new album.  New album drops in May and will be heavier and more like the debut with some modern elements. If you are Sven Gali fans, you'll be happy. We will have another single and video hitting before the album is released and will be getting more press out with details.

Ive been a Triumph fan since 76. Favorite Canadian band then BTO & Rush. Ive never heard Sven Gali before, but this is a pretty awesome cover.

First album was very Sleazy. Second album was Grunge. The recent EP was Modern. 

[lettard]

Its another sound of the debut that we would crave most...if they add a tad of modern ok...but please not to much...hopefully lesson learned from going grunge on the Inwire disc?

Just sounds like nothing that would interest me. If the rest of the CD sounded like this video Id probably check them out though.

New video for "Monster" released a coupla weeks back:

 

According to the write up on YouTube, this is from an upcoming 2023 album titled "Bombs and Battlescars"

[KarpetRydOFunk]

That's not bad, but it's not what I want from Sven Gali. 

[auslander]

I dig that. A lot to be honest. Another really different sound for the band. Modern Rock. But really well done. 

[Geoff]

Yeah heard that 'Monster' song a few weeks ago and I really liked it too. Very keen to hear an album full of this quality.

Agreed...guess we'll have to stick to the self titled

Too fucking right.

 

[Geoff]

Yeah, that's a very poor song.

Is the album out yet, or has sometime in August turned to sometime after August? 

[Geoff]

Was spinning their debut on Friday and just going through their videos now for a kick and thought I'd post them for fun in case someone shares my curiosity;

 

 

 

 

And for what it's worth - I can't even remember this song, long, but I assume it's off 'Inwire';

 

I never realised they had so many singles (deserved) from that debut album. All the killer cuts too. I notice on wikipedia there is allegedly a video of 'Whisper in the rain' from 1990. I actually think that's a bit of a bland tune, but I'd be curious to see the video, mostly because it's from 1990. But I couldn't find that one on the Tubes.
