Spidergawd - Spidergawd VI (2021)

The sixth album from this band from Norway.

The band was a quintet with a lineup of drums, bass, guitars and vocals.

Two guests added saxophone and vocals.

This band's first five albums were pretty varied. Pretty varied takes on the theme "hard rock", that is. From blues influenced hard rock to more psych and Motorpsycho influenced hard rock.

Their music has always been hard, though. So what would Spidergawd VI bring to the table ?

The band has gotten a second guitarist. The result is twin guitars in the vein of Judas Priest and Iron Maiden. The vocals is decent although they are the weakest point of the band.

The music is indeed heavy metal influenced. Nevertheless, the music is not heavy metal although the music is at times a bit heavy. 

This is still a take on the good old 1970s genre "hard rock".

These forty minutes is still catchy and has a lot of groove.

The result is a reminder how good hard rock can sound and a good album in itself. 

I like this band.
