Bloodhorse - ‘Horizoner’

Rating: 7

Including members of Shelter, The Red Chord and American Nightmare, Bloodhorse have crafted nine tracks of sludgy, groove-filled rock that owes a great deal to old and new. The vocals cross Brent Hinds with Ozzy; the guitars too are reminiscent of Mastodon (‘The Old Man’) although the majority is focussed on driving grooves rather than technical intricacies. The band tease with long escalating intros (‘A Good Son’) but still take the time to belt out classic rock-infused hardcore as good as anything before (‘Paranoiac’). Given the calibre of its members, it’s no surprise such range is a pleasure to absorb.
