Directions to See a Ghost with Haunted Leather - An Interview


Psicodelia pesada, cinzenta, nada de flower power, aqui o buraco literalmente é mais embaixo, Red Road é o penúltimo album do Haunted Leather o último é In Her Golden Room, combo de Michigan, que simplesmente pega na veia mesmo, da mesma linhagem de Warlocks, Black Angels e similares, o negócio dos caras é riffs barulhentos hipnóticos e vocais evocando o monstro sagrado Roky Eriksson.

Os caras prometem coisa nova pra esse ano, mas se você desconhece o Haunted Leather e o viciante Red Road, sugiro que tome vergonha imediatamente e não comete mais essa falha.

Os deuses agradecem.

We did six, because there are six of us.

Q. How do you fell playing alive?
It feels good, but it’s better if there are drugs and something to drink.

It’s hard to answer this objectively, we just play what we like.
