Savage - 'Thirty & Dirty' (official audio)

It's almost too nasty
to say hello ol' ma'am
hear you nightly moaning
as loud as you can

Fed up makin' lonely
always by yourself
I raise the funds for joy yeah
with personal guarantee

Like velvet breeze
you hide your cold sleaze
behind your lucent bra

There ain't no talk
let me do knock and walk
behind your door

Thirty and dirty
ooh that's what I need
I'm a bad child baby
undress and punish me

Thirty and dirty
ooh that's what you want
play with your prey
'til fourty

Call back to me
save your time for love
lift your stone cold pretty
stop the talk from now

Red hot blood is running
down from my head
a slap onto your bottom
is the language you understand

There ain't no cure
for a hotspur like me, do you?

Animals heat
sinking your teeth with screams
in my arteries

Υπάρχουν (ή υπήρξαν) τουλάχιστον εννέα συγκροτήματα με το όνομα Savage. (Πλέον γνωστοί οι Βρετανοί που δραστηριοποιήθηκαν την περίοδο του NWOBHM μουσικού ρεύματος και συνεχίζουν μέχρι τις ημέρες μας.) Τρία εξ αυτών έχουν ως βάση την Γερμανία.

Ετούτοι της σημερινής ανάρτησης δημιουργήθηκαν προ τετραετίας και μας συστήνονται κάπως έτσι: «Mean Heavy Metal from Bavaria, Germany». Πέρυσι κυκλοφόρησαν το πέντε τραγουδιών ομώνυμο ep και φέτος έφθασε η στιγμή για τον πρώτο "ολοκληρωμένο" τους δίσκο. Τιτλοφορείται "Glory Riders" και αναμένεται στην "καρδιά" του φθινοπώρου...

Δελτίο τύπου: «Dying Victims Productions is proud to present the highly anticipated debut album of Germany’s Savage, Glory Riders, on CD, vinyl LP, and cassette tape formats. Hailing from Bavaria, Savage formed in 2019 and promptly began solidifying their aesthetic.

Then a trio, Savage’s sound remained firmly within the 1980s, and specifically on the darker and more dangerous side of the Sunset Strip - namely W.A.S.P. and early Mötley Crüe. The first sinful fruit was borne with their self-titled debut EP, which was recorded at the end of 2021 and then self-released during the following summer.

Strictly DIY from mixing and mastering to promotion and distribution, Savage showed that Savage had the fire already raging: word of mouth spread worldwide, the record nearly sold out, and work had already begun on their debut full-length!

Now with the addition of rhythm guitarist Alex “Axel” Warrior, Savage have at least developed into the (fuck-like-a) beast they always aimed for, and are prepared to deliver a bound-to-be-classic debut album: Glory Riders.

Almost presciently titled, Glory Riders soon becomes a self-fulfilling prophecy of dirty and raw metal - or, as the band rightly liken it, Mean Heavy Metal. From sound and spirit on down to production and overall attitude, Savage have the sleaziest side of classic American metal down COLD... or, should that be “fiery”?

Indeed, even with the categorically cruising mid-tempo at which they move, Savage positively ooze energy every single second here; hooks and heaviness take equal weight, and there’s just the right amount of spaciousness here (ala W.A.S.P.’s nigh-untouchable opening trio of albums) to lend moodiness and mystery to the band’s stadium-ready bravura.

Neither flashy nor rudimentary, Glory Riders is simply stripped-down and muscular where it needs to be, keeping emphasis on the songwriting (and solos!) and letting Savage’s irresistible attitude take hold.

Without hyperbole, Savage have hereby thrown down the gauntlet for any band, ever, attempting to invoke the sound & spirit of the aforementioned glory years of W.A.S.P. and Mötley Crüe.

Further references include classic Twisted Sister, early Lizzy Borden, Halloween, Impaler, and even Coup d’état-era Plasmatics, but one listen to Glory Riders and you’ll be convinced that these still-young gods are the REAL fucking DEAL!»
