Hello & happy #threetunetuesday to the wonderful Hive #music community!
As we speed our way into February and toward Spring I'm already feeling the need to recharge some of that energy that I've been lacking through the long winter months. With that said, here are my selections for this week. I hope it gives you the same boost that these songs will give me.
1. Nuclear Power Trio - A Clear and Present Rager
What happens when you cross Vladimir Putin, Donald Trump and Kim Jong-un I hear you ask? The answer is an obvious one...SHRED FUNK! 🙃🤔 A side project comprised of members from several respected Thrash/Death Metal outfits, this band is truly an exercise in creativity with no brakes!
2. Social Distortion - Don't Drag Me Down
Social Distortion are a band that were introduced to me by a friend at the age of 16 and for the last 20 years has remained one of my personal favourites. This is Punk Rock in all of it's rebellious glory! Something bothering you?...stick this in your eyes and give it the middle finger! 😝
3. Trivium - Anthem (We Are the Fire)
Taken from Trivium's album 'The Crusade', this is a track that bursts with energy and enthusiasm! Although this album is often seen as a stumble by hardcore fans of the band, I still very much enjoy blasting out the chorus and chanting sections of this track, even if it is cheesy as hell! (As long as there's nobody else is around!) 😜
That's it's for me this week, hope you all enjoy the tunes! All of the tracks above are available on Spotify as well as other streaming services so please support the artist if you enjoy what you hear. I'll be back next week for a special Valentine's Day edition so keep your eyes peeled for that. It should be a laugh at the very least!
