STRAYS: Ritual

Back to Back Home Runs

Strays' "Smoker" and "Ritual" albums set a new standard for a band's first two releases.

Can't help but think of Ufomammut and Belzebong when I hear this, and think this is just as good.  

Listen to the closing track, "Witch":

Now the relentless "1312":

Strays are:

Ben Scott
Spencer Jones
Ben Copeland

From their Facebook page:

Download "Ritual" here, and don't miss 2017's "Smoker" here.  Both are 'Name Your Price.'

Can't believe how much truly great music has already come out this year.

Until next weekend
