Ferocious Macclesfield Rock trio Queen Cult have been one of our favourite, high octane newcomers for a while now, having impressed us with their debut EP and playing a killer headline set at our live showcase last year. Since that show they have continued their sonic trajectory, going from strength to strength and becoming increasingly menacing and uncompromising along the way!
This development has culminated in the anthemic new single ‘Be Better’ which sees them at their most viscous to date. The moment the pounding drums kick in you know that this track is going to have a HUGE impact and it does not disappoint. The riff has a dirty edge to it, providing a gritty tone and gravelly texture to the track.
The intro is bursting full of tension and when the rising background scream of kiss ass front woman Maisie Johnson begins to hit this tension reaches boiling point before exploding into a frantic Rock cacophony.
The intensity and devilish tones hint of Frank Carter & The Rattlesnakes while the beautifully warm vocal style that is dark yet melodic rings of The Mysterines, Crawlers and fellow newcomers VENUS GRRRLS.
A trio that have always packed a punch, Queen Cult have stepped it up a level and are taking no prisoners on this visceral Rock stomper!
