Mosh away to Voodoo Bloo’s exhilarating single “MMA”.
Alternative punk-rockers Voodoo Bloo are back with a follow up single “MMA”, hot on the heels of their widely praised debut “Her Name Was Human”. Led by singer/songwriter Rory McDonald – the former frontman of Lucifer Gunne – the band is dripping with attitude and pure punk madness. Their upcoming debut album, ‘Jacobus’, will present their more conceptual and personal side, paying tribute to McDonald’s late friend and drawing attention to the issue of teen suicide.
Originally intended to be titled ‘moshpit martial arts’, “MMA” is rife with maddening energy and danceable distortion. From the very first, brutal guitar riff, this track takes you in its grip and doesn’t let go – bringing in wave after wave of strong, driving guitars and explosive drums. McDonald’s unhinged, emotive vocals grow progressively into a roaring howl, evoking moments of inebriation and moral dubiousness that haunt one after nights of debauchery. As the track comes to a screeching halt with the final chords of echoing, sombre piano, we awake from this intoxicating explosion of sound, bewildered but craving more.
Electrifying, sweaty and carefree, “MMA” is a call for surrender to the whirlwind of volcanic sound.
