Elegant Weapons - 'Blind Leading The Blind' (official music video)

If you keep a bad dog with you
The good ones they won’t bite
A necessary evil it doesn’t matter if it’s right
Oh it’s great to be the king just
Keep your head in the game
Dropping like flies around you
Their loss is your gain

You’re throwing pearls before
The swine hope they don’t flinch
You know there’s no defense
Just pay the piper or you get found in a ditch

Chorus

It’s just the blind leading the blind
The truth got left behind
The blind leading the blind
It’s stop now or never mind

You think that you can whip them
With one arm behind your back
It’s not over till it’s over
Then everything goes black

Stop listening to all the voices in your head
The Devil’s Advocate is never far behind
You’re better off dead

It’s just the blind leading the blind
The truth got left behind
The blind leading the blind
Throw pearls before the swine
The blind leading the blind
It’s stop now or never mind

Got no axe to grind
Just see through the lies

Dropping like flies around you,
Their loss is your gain
Oh it’s great to be the king just
Keep your head in the game
You’re throwing pearls before
The swine hope they don’t flinch
You know there’s no defense
Just pay the piper or you get found in a ditch

It’s just the blind leading the blind
The truth got left behind
The blind leading the blind
Throw pearls before the swine
The blind leading the blind
It’s stop now or never mind

Chorus


Elegant Weapons - 'Horns For A Halo'
Πριν από μερικούς μήνες ο κιθαρίστας των Judas Priest, Richie Faulkner, δημιούργησε τους Elegant Weapons. Μαζί τους μία πλειάδα έμπειρων μουσικών όπως ο τραγουδιστής Ronnie Romero (Rainbow, Michael Schenker Group, Lords of Black, The Ferrymen, Sunstorm, CoreLeoni κλπ), ο μπασίστας Rex Brown (Pantera, Down) και ο drummer (των Judas Priest) Scott Travis. Ως προς το μουσικό τους ύφος:

«The over-arching mandate with Elegant Weapons is to perpetuate the rich legacy of the traditional proto-power metal invented by the heavy metal titans of the‘70s and ‘80s, most pertinently Richie’s own band, Judas Priest.»

Αυτή η τετράδα ηχογράφησε δίσκο, ο οποίος τιτλοφορείται "Horns For A Halo" κι έχει προγραμματισθεί να κυκλοφορήσει στα τελειώματα του επόμενου μήνα από την Nuclear Blast Records (σε cd και διπλό βινύλιο), με τον Richie Faulkner να μας λέει σχετικά:

«All four of us have got that original DNA in us, as does the new breed of traditional heavy metal fans. And so maybe a band like Elegant Weapons, hopefully we’ve got the credibility to make those original bands proud, because we were accepted by the members of those bands and by their fans. That’s really the idea behind Elegant Weapons- to keep flying the flag for this style of timeless heavy metal.»

Μετά την ηχογράφηση του δίσκου προέκυψαν αλλάγές στο line-up της μπάντας, με τον Dave Rimmer (των Uriah Heep) να αναλαμβάνει το μπάσο και τον Christopher Williams (των Accept) τα τύμπανα...

Δελτίο τύπου: «Judging from its band members’ resumes, the newly-launched Elegant Weapons will rock ferociously - which includes singer Ronnie Romero (Rainbow, MSG), guitarist Richie Faulkner (Judas Priest), bassist Rex Brown (Pantera, Down), and drummer Scott Travis (Judas Priest).

The band will be issuing their full-length debut, Horns for a Halo, in spring 2023, which was produced by Andy Sneap and issued via Nuclear Blast Records.

The over-arching mandate with Elegant Weapons is to perpetuate the rich legacy of the traditional proto-power metal invented by the heavy metal titans of the ‘70s and ‘80s, most pertinently Richie's own band, Judas Priest.

And in 2023, fans will finally get to hear what this promising new band sounds like - with the arrival of Horns for a Halo.»
