Venice, CA rock revolutionaries The Shrine (Josh Landau on guitar/vocals, Courtland Murphy on bass and Jeff Murray on drums) has signed to Tee Pee Records for the release of the band's hotly anticipated sophomore album Primitive Blast, the follow-up to the band's 2010 self-titled debut which was produced by Black Flag's Chuck Dukowski.
Recorded on vintage gear and reel-to-reel tape through mountainous Marshall stacks, Primitive Blast is the perfect soundtrack to cracking your skull skating your neighbor's empty pool, delivering nine blasts of searing guitar, spazzed-out drums and shook up bass lines that seriously signal the arrival of The Shrine as a ticking time bomb that's about ready to explode!
Boasting a big sound the trio has dubbed "psychedelic violence," The Shrine who Thrasher has called "a hard-hitting three-piece, combining the hooks and tones of classic rock with the energy and stage presence of a thrash band," has been making waves in Los Angeles for the past few years, touring and sharing the stage with the likes of Kyuss Lives!, Pentagram, Graveyard, Fu Manchu, Howlin' Rain, Holy Grail and The Sword.
"If you haven't seen The Shrine, you should check them out now before they explode. Actually, you don't "see" The Shrine so much as you feel them, a bit like what thrash metal would be if it had evolved straight from Thin Lizzy and bypassed Judas Priest entirely." - LA Record
