Roaming Son - Blood On My Hands EP

Blood On My Hands sees Sheffield’s Roaming Son shuffle sideways from the Southern rock undercurrent of debut EP, 2013’s History Of Violence, as well as turning the crunch up a few shades.

With singer and chief songwriter Tim Lee Cavanagh’s vocals sounding like he eats his morning bacon & eggs on barbed wire toast, the overall feel of this EP is more heavy trucker rock than southern grits.

Opening with the snarling menace of the title track – a slab of fine groove rock that stomps heads and is guaranteed to make your average boy band shit their pants – Blood On My Hands showcases plenty of diversity.

Passing Through features an anthemic chorus straight out of the AC/DC playbook, One Day is a hard rockin’ slice of rock and the closest sounding track to their debut.

Terminal Kiss resonates with a surf guitar twang and the tale of a bad, bad girl, before Devil in Me closes the EP with a nod towards rockabilly and a really swinging groove.

Roaming Son’s recent heavy gigging schedule has included some high profile supports and it shows in their evolution since 2013, producing another kick-ass slab of REAL rawk n’ roll.
