Forget phoenixes, Bastion Rose is the real comeback king. After battling back from a voice-threatening surgery, frontman Austin Frink has emerged even stronger, belting out anthems with a band that bleeds rock 'n' roll like nobody's business. Their debut EP, "Fade To Blue", is a sonic middle finger to adversity, a testament to the power of perseverance and killer riffs.
Imagine Tool and Foo Fighters having a lovechild under the watchful eye of Black Sabbath and Pink Floyd. That's Bastion Rose's sound: a potent blend of ethereal soundscapes, face-melting guitar work, and soulful vocals that'll leave you breathless. It's not just Austin's pipes that impress, though. The whole band – John Donlon on drums, Steve Pierce on bass, Barrett Abraham on keys, and Austin Mudd on guitar – is a tight-knit unit firing on all cylinders.
Produced by the legendary David Bottrill (Tool, Rush) and mastered by the wizardry of Maor Appelbaum (Faith No More), "Fade To Blue" is four tracks of pure, unadulterated rock goodness. "Coming For You", the official lyric video, is a prime example: soaring melody, driving rhythm, and lyrics that punch you in the gut.
This ain't your grandpa's rock. It's music for the modern metalhead, the one who craves emotion alongside aggression, melody alongside muscle. Whether you're a die-hard rocker or just dipping your toes into the genre, Bastion Rose is a band to keep an eye – and ear – on.
This EP is fire. It's got heart, it's got grit, and it's got hooks that'll stay stuck in your head for days. If you're looking for a new band to obsess over, Bastion Rose is your answer. Just be warned, after listening to them, you might accidentally headbang your way through your next grocery run. Don't blame me if you get strange looks.
