Description
HEAVY WATER – RED BRICK CITY is the first project by Saxons Biff Byford and son Seb Byford of Naked Six. As their name suggests, Heavy Water aren’ t for the lighthearted. Soaked in gritty, riffbaked blues, yet rich with the sound and metre of classic hard rock, Red Brick City’ s ten songs refuses to let you go. From the taut, elastic swing of the ‘Solution’ riff to the rich, layered balladic strains of ‘Tree in the Wind’, Red Brick City moves with the class and cadence of a cracking journey uniting vintage rock ‘n’ roll sensibilities with the crackle and excitement of a fresh, youthful perspective.With Seb on guitar and Biff on bass duties and both providing their vocal talents the foundations for Heavy Water’ s sound are set in both that incredible fatherson chemistry and a lifetime of knowhow and experiences. Take the title track and first single ‘Red Brick City’, all steam and smoulder wrapped around a riff Soundgarden would’ ve been proud of, and then there’ s the sunsoaked smile of ‘Follow This Moment’ with harmonies evoking the Beach Boys relayed through Led Zeppelin, a gorgeous ‘70’ s trip right down to the fade out. Produced by Seb Byford and Biff Byford, with Jacky Lehmann mastering, Red Brick City is a rich, lustrous ride through profoundly rewarding rock waters.Track Listing1A. Solution2A. Turn to Black3A.
