"In For The Kill" BUDGIE album turned a lot of heads - earning the group a loyal following ...melodic yet brutal! Blending beautiful melodies with blazing rockers.
Budgie's fourth album sees the band continuing to be at the forefront of the early heavy rock scene. The power trio seem more confident than in previous outings, which makes the diverse range of styles they play an engaging listen. Running From My Soul is heavy rock, very reminiscent of Zeppelin's "Dazed and Confused". While thunderous album closer Living On Your Own is a slower, doomier, Sabbath-inspired number. `In For the Kill' was a great follow-up to what many rock fans and critics consider to be Budgie's best album. Next to "Breadfan", "Zoom Club", which was `Kill's piece de résistance, could be the Welsh power trio's best song and is definitely captures the listeners attention with it's pulverizing catchiness. The song, built around a monster, plodding Tony Bourge guitar rift just builds and cascades to a thunderous conclusion! "Hammer and Tongs" is a longish blues number, definitely Sabbathesque and may have given Budgie the boost to the top of the Sabbath's popularity if only they had toured the USA before 1976 !
The album also includes an updated version of Crash Course in Brain Surgery, a track the group had previously released as a single - a pounding piece of proto-speed metal which particularly showcases the skills of Burke Shelley, the group's bassist and vocalist. Shelley's bass style for this album is harder and heavier than ever, at points reaching hypnotic intensities comparable to the sort of performances Lemmy was dishing out in Hawkwind at the time. On the whole, the album is further proof that Budgie do not deserve the comparative obscurity they've faded away into, but ought to join Sabbath in the early HEAVY ROCK pantheon.
