FOR THOSE ABOOT TO ROCK: Riffs of Canada with Cellos (Windsor, Ontario)

By: Mark Tremblay


Album Type: Full Length
Date Released:5/8/2017
Label: No List Records |
Harbour House Records



The best way to describe this band would be “Torche meets KEN Mode” in the most harmonious way possible. The album is a plethora of serpentine riffs from “Demagogue” and “Bury me on Highway 3”, to the outright sludgy plod of “Out of Phase” and “White Lines.  This record is for anyone searching for something slightly different in the myriad of heavy music releases this year


“The Great Leap Backward” CS//DD//LP track listing:

1). White Lines
2). Demagogue
3). Delirium Tremens
4). Ghosts in the Sky
5). Snake Charmer
6). Out of Phase
7). Bury Me on Highway 3
8). Shooting Star
9). Stranger at the Door


The Review:

Cellos continue the legacy of great Canadian Noise Rock under the No List Records Label (LP via Harbour House Records). The best way to describe this band would be Torche meets KEN Modein the most harmonious way possible. The album is a plethora of serpentine riffs from “Demagogue” and “Bury me on Highway 3”, to the outright sludgy plod of “Out of Phase” and “White Lines”. “The Great Leap Backward” is an emotional rollercoaster that could be best encapsulated by the song “Snake Charmer”; a track that lulls you with a hypnotic opening riff, only to change course with the noise rock twist of Kittens.

Cellos “The Great Leap Backward” has so much crossover appeal that putting it into a sub genre would only cheapen its potential to a wider audience. This record is for anyone searching for something slightly different in the myriad of heavy music releases this year.

“The Great Leap Backward” is available here
