Blessed be Sweden’s soil for exporting loads of bands like The Horsehead Reunion. In almost three years since their formation in 2009 they managed to draw the attention thanks to their dirty, ballsy rock’n’roll, a natural product that comes from the Great Scandinavian School of Rawk.
With their influences lost in the mist of the ‘70s and the ‘90s, and from the Rolling Stones, to Lynyrd Skynrd, and from Gluecifer to the Hellacopters, a few minutes of listening to the Horsehead Reunion will be enough to put them on your list of bands that is actually a privilege to know, and own one of their records. They are dirty, old-fashioned, full of energy, soul and swagger, and surely don’t pass unnoticed. Their songs might not be original, but the way they play, the ease with which their guitars throw up solos, the changes in the tempo and Seb Serio’s, who is singing like the end of the wolrd is near, lead vocals, leave no room for doubt.
If you like to listen to something so retro that souds fresh, something so honest and simple that will win you on the first spin, then the rather unknown Horsehead Union will give you loads of enjoyable times listening to their music.
