THE NEPTUNE POWER FEDERATION – Le Demon De L’Amour (2022)
The stylistic diaspora of heavy metal has transformed it into one of the most diverse genres prominent in the modern era; despite this resplendent variety, though, there remains a steadfast cult of followers utterly devoted to maintaining the original strain of metal, that unholy phenomenon birthed from psychedelia and heavy blues that reigned before the advent of metal’s multifarious subgenres.
One such band carrying this mantle deep into the future is Australian outfit THE NEPTUNE POWER FEDERATION. A squadron of leather-clad rock-‘n’-roll occultists, their project was created as an aesthetic and cultural tribute to that first era of heavy metal, paying homage specifically to the heaviest material created between 1968 and 1978.
However, the band claim that their new album “Le Demon De L’Amour” is a collection of ‘love songs’. Well, lyrical maybe, but musically these guys are all about classic rock, classic metal, groove and catchy melodies…
