History
UK rock band playing a 70's hard rock sound. Having one of the most original / unusual names in Heavy Metal is one way of getting people to notice you I suppose. There aren’t too many bands whose name is synonymous with an 18th Century Admiral of the Fleet that is for sure, so it’s with interest that I listened to the new 7” for the Sussex trio, “Return To Zero”.
Being signed to Rise Above Records is usually a safe indication as to the style and overall sound you’re about to experience, and true to form I wasn’t disappointed. Billed as no “classic rock' revivalist's”, Admiral Sir Cloudesley Shovell certainly do hark back to the days of early Sabbath, Rainbow and Deep Purple. The production quality has that aged feel to it which just enhances both songs impact.
