Green fairy- Wasted Land (distributed by Irascible)


Wasted Land is the second full length album of the Swiss rock/folk band, Green Fairy. The record combines strong rock guitar vibes with great drums and bass riffs creating an interesting retro rock album with rhythms that will stick to your mind. The album opens with "Wasted Lands" starting with catchy acapella vocals by Manu Tarabay and Julien Waraux and adding groovy drums and guitar riffs that have a very strong 70's vibe. "On Bright Days We Fall" follows it up with the addition of acoustic guitars and amazing lead vocals being one of the best tracks of the whole record!  "Lady in Black" with classic rock riffs, "Rock and Roll Suicide" with its groovy vocals, "Red Blue Eyes" with its slow-paced rock elements and "Locked Inside" are also great additions to the album. "Tears of the Sun" is a more interesting and mature song followed by "The Waves" and the "Lost Time Seeker" that wrap up the album with an almost genuine 70's timber. If you fancy retro folk rock, this is one of the best records of 2013 in that genre!
