Description
To deserve the term & "timelesS", an album really does have to transcend the era in which it wascreated. Equilibrium unequivocally achieves this. With roots in 60s psychedelia and classic rock,the fuzzy stoner riffs of the 70s, the grit of 90s grunge and the winning dirty rock 'n' roll that has inrecent years made a resurgence, Boston, MA's Gozu have been churning out killer records since 2009.
With 2016's Revival they took their sound in a somewhat new and more aggressive direction,and in doing so, dropped the most compulsive, exciting and downright badass release of their career- and Equilibrium has only raised the stakes. "We wanted these songs to hit a nerve, make peopleshake their ass and enjoy simply being alive," says vocalist/guitarist Marc "Gaff" Gaffney, whofounded the band with lead guitarist Doug Sherman. Much of the record's strength stems from theunit growing since Revival, the first full-length featuring drummer Mike Hubbard and bassistJoseph Grotto. "I would have to say that the band is sounding the best it ever has right now,"; Gaffney states plainly. "It takes a bit of time to feel everything out. When you are serious about it,you have to work as a team, and we are four guys that dig the same kind of music and love to play,but we all bring in different elements that give us our sound. It is not just one person channeling,its the four of us bringing in the ingredients and together making it a delicious meal."
