PlanetMosh Keeping it Metal
‘The wake of man’ is the self titled debut EP from Melodic rock band ‘The wake of man’. Having said that, listening to the EP I wouldnt describe them as “melodic rock” – that conjures up images of a much softer music, more like Foreigner, whereas The wake of man are heavier than your typical melodic rock band, and really fall into the straightforward ‘Rock’ category.
The twin guitar sound gives the music a good heavy basis, and the drums and bass reinforce that. The vocals are fairly high pitched – a style I’m not really a fan of, but that’s just personal taste. The songs are well written and this seven track EP sounds very good.
The EP is available now, and is also available to download free of charge from the band’s website – http://www.thewakeofman.com/music.cfm
It’s definitely worth downloading for a listen, and if you like what you hear then you can always buy a CD of it to support the band
