The New Breed
Earlier this year I did an interview with Tom McKay, one of The New Breed’s guitar players, about their upcoming self titled, debut EP called ”The New Breed”.
Now, the EP is released and the result is five rocking tracks.

This music is made to be heard live. Think of a dark, smoke filled rock club in the mid seventies, with high volume and packed with rockers in the crowd. You would expect to see Ritchie Blackmore pass you by on his way to the stage or the bar... The New Breed’s music is probably at it’s best heard live like this. It’s typical 70s rock and what first comes to mind is Deep Purple with tempo mixes going thru the songs, that was typical for that era. This is what The New Breed play, classic 70s rock, just like they did back then, for example take the cowbell and gritty guitars in ”Heartbreaker”. Nice touch!
I like the intro in ”Black Seas, High Tides” and how the song pick up speed at the end. Its a good song to sum up The New Breed’s self titled, debut EP with.
I’m looking forward to hear their next album and would love to see them go on tour. My favorite songs on this EP is ”Lie To Me” and ”Soul Train”, give this EP a listen.
Songs on ”The New Breed” EP:
