Freeze Footage

Shadow Kingdom Records is proud to present HAUNT's massively anticipated third album, Mind Freeze, on CD, vinyl LP, and cassette tape formats. Simply put, HAUNT is the new face of traditional heavy metal & hard rock. Masterful despite their young years as a band, HAUNT began as a solo project of Beastmaker frontman Trevor William Church and promptly self-released its debut EP, Luminous Eyes, during the summer of 2017. Not long after, the EP was picked up for physical release by SHADOW KINGDOM, and henceforth did HAUNT begin their ascent…

It’s been a while coming, but here we finally get Trikont’s third volume in their amazing Early Black Rock ‘N Roll series. As before, the intent is to present real American rock ‘n roll as it first emerged in the late 1940s-early 1950s, before the music’s black roots were de-emphasised and it was cleaned up for consumption by the middle class white America of Richie Cunningham, Ralph Malph and Potsie. These 26 knock-out tracks certainly deliver on this - or, in the words of Nik Cohn in the booklet’s notes, ‘compared to the sentimentalism of white music, (hearing the originals) was like a window being opened to let the stale air out’.

Music or Movie? The big picture in "Waitin' For Your Call" reminds you of a b/w Bogard movie, the lover waitin' at the phone, late at night, excuses, love, hate, drama. "Good Morning L.A." is just that: sunny, jazzy good and mellow. "Where are You" in both versions memorable, the vocals right on. "Syntasia" a hommage to the powerful sounds of Keith Emerson and to Eddie Jobson's brilliance.
