Quireboys: Wardour Street [Vinyl LP]

Inmazes is the title of the debut album by Danish experimental rock band VOLA. The album tries to capture this feeling of being trapped in mental mazes and not being able to fully experience happiness. Asger: &ldquo;How it is achieved? I think we&rsquo;ve all tried being so caught up in a joyful moment, that we have a little voice inside our head saying: &ldquo;right now is so wonderful!&rdquo; It&rsquo;s an incredibly pure experience that can only exist if we are so present in this very situation, that negative things are pushed back in our head, to the point where they don&rsquo;t reach your consciousness. If the negative thoughts are sticking to the very front of your mind, it suddenly becomes a very tiresome and complex struggle to make this moment of happiness occur. This re-issue will be released on November 1 via Mascot Records in conjunction with the new VOLA album Friend Of A Phantom.

Skillet: Revolution [Vinyl LP]

Hailed as "the reigning heavyweight champions of Southern rock" (No Depression), Atlantabased quintet Blackberry Smoke is back with their 8th studio album, Be Right Here, produced by Dave Cobb. Be Right Here follows 2021&#039;s You Hear Georgia, which was the best-selling Country and Americana/Folk album in the country, entered at #7 on the Billboard Rock Albums chart and #4 on the Billboard Top Albums chart. Released to Critical acclaim, No Depression praised the band for being &ldquo;as much students of singer-songwriterfolk and outlaw country as they are of jam-based, chest-pumping rock,&rdquo; &rdquo; while Guitar World declared "Many try to reproduce that holy grail, golden-era-of-classic-rock sound through their six-string escapades, yet only a handful ultimately succeed. One such band who succeeds in spades is Blackberry Smoke, whose most recent album You Hear Georgia serves up 10 tracks of pure rock &lsquo;n&rsquo; roll bliss.&rdquo;
