With a profound love for the old heroes of the Blues walking hand in hand with rock, metal, country and last but not least punk, The Devil and the Almighty Blues is armed with vintage Gibson guitars and tube amplifiers. Their new take on blues-based rock is heavy without becoming metal, slow without being doom, bluesy without being straight up and boring. It's slow, heavy, melodic and raw. Far from being a possible hit on the radio, but on the other hand - who really cares??
When the 60's turned into the 70's there was a musical crossroads. The American blues had had it's run with teens on both sides of the Atlantic long enough so that the blues-offspring named rock'n'roll had to expand or die. It did not die, it expanded in all kinds of directions! And right there in the crossroads between blues-based rock and all the world's other sub-genres of rock, something happened to the blues. The format got experimented with, expanded and almost made unrecognizable. But at the same time the roots to the original 'real' blues was never lost. Where Peter Green left Fleetwood Mac in 1970 with the track »Green Manalishi«, where Johnny Winter stretched his musical legs, where ZZ Top bought Marshall full stacks and shot from the hip, and last but not least where the legend himself, Muddy Waters, stretched the limits of that was 'legal' with the album »Electric Mud«. And not to forget Hendrix, Free, Canned Heat and the rest of the gang from the Woodstock-era. The result was a highly electric musical revolution, where e.g. the newly born genre hard rock walked hand in hand with traditional delta blues.
It is out from this musical mud The Devil and the Almighty Blues have found their inspiration. Their music is slow, heavy, melodic and raw, all without losing the almighty blues out of sight.
Temple Fang
No longer the best kept secret in Dutch rock, Amsterdam's psych-rock band has steadily been
blowing minds across Europe since 2018 with their hard hitting yet elegant longform jams,
building up an enormous reputation as a live band that always delivers and never repeats itself.
Having debuted, appropriately, with a live album, 2019's »Live at Merleyn« on their own Right On
Mountain records, in 2021 the band put out the double album »Fang Temple« to considerable
acclaim. After the pandemic, the band hit the road hard and played every festival that would
have them, from Holland's own Roadburn to Germany's Freak Valley, Desertfest , Krach am
Bach and Rock im Wald and trekked across Europe supporting King Buffalo. The band put out
the »Jerusalem/The Bridge« EP and the »Live at Freak Valley« LP themselves resulting in them
being picked up by Stickman Records, home of their friends in Elder, Iron Jinn and King Buffalo.
After concluding their tour in the summer of 2023 with scorching performances at Portugal's
Sonic Blast and Switzerland's Palp Festival leaving heads spinning and hearts filled with guitars,
the band has been holed up in their Amsterdam bunker working on their Stickman debut.
Mind-bending riffs, triple vocal harmonies, dubbed out bass and jazzy yet hard hitting drums,
ecstatically rocking and truly psychedelic, Temple Fang delivers it all with love. Rock 'n Roll as a
means to attaining spiritual freedom, right on! Quelle: Veranstalter
