Soshanna ♥ Well my fellow camper & Rock Revolutionist FDJ was right about this one...once again. ;-) Heavy rhythm section is the standout on this one for sure. Rattles the brain and wakes you up! Add in the superb shredding and angry vocals, this is a debut LP worthy of recognition as one of the best of 2013. Oh yeah...and this is one of those albums that NEEDS to be played LOUD!! :p Favorite track: Up In Smoke.

FDJ (Desert Psychlist) This is a contender for one of my favourite releases of 2013. Deep throbbing bass lines and solid drumming are the foundation for some titanic guitar riffing and solo's. Great vocals too.Mind blowing! Favorite track: Up In Smoke.

about

Heavy Sleeper is the first full-length release from Sydney four-piece Milkmaids.

Spearheaded by the sweltering lead single Garden, Heavy Sleeper provides 8 tracks of dark, angry and unrelenting guitar rock, underpinned by a precise, pummeling rhythm section and powered by colossal, distortion-laden riffs, searing guitar solos and howling, irascible vocals.

With most of the recording taking place in one day in a small studio in Marrickville, Heavy Sleeper attempts to capture the live power of the four-piece which earned them their loyal following, with 8 potent songs written over the past 6-8 months of gigging (with the exception of audience favourite and setlist mainstay Up In Smoke).

Mastered by Grammy-award winner William Bowden, the album will be available digitally and on a limited CD pressing via the Milkmaids Bandcamp and at upcoming shows in Sydney over the next few months.

NEXT SHOW - THE SQUARE, HAYMARKET - NOV 16
WITH THOMAS COVENANT, MILKK AND SHARK ARM
