Search - Red Giant :: Devil Child Blues

Just pretend for a moment you haven?t heard this story a hundred times before. Four outcast kids meet in high school. They discover that they all love Sabbath, Kiss, Zeppelin, Hendrix, Slayer and Soundgarden. Much to their surprise, they also discover that two of them play guitar, one plays drums and other plays bass. So they form a band, freak out in their parents? basements and fall madly in love with ROCK! This is usually the point where you?d turn the page, throw the disc in the trash, or politely excuse yourself and make a beeline for the bar?and usually you?d be right, but not with Red Giant. Somehow these misfit kids managed to avoid the usual local band pitfalls and forge a sound as menacing as it is spacey, anthemic and crushing. Red Giant is the true result of musical hero worship gone wrong, but it just feels right. Their Small Stone debut is in the can and set for the masses, with straightforward heavy rock, passionate and bluesy. Epic lead guitars and whiskey-drenched vocals fly above a hard-pounding rhythm section that drives the march of the mighty riff. Not bad for a couple of kids from the Midwest who started like any other accident waiting to happen.
