“Heavy Blues” is the feeling. The genre is a second order issue.
Heavy
1. of great weight; difficult to lift or move
2. of great density; thick or substantial
Burdensome
“Heavy Blues” is more despondent and apathetic. Yearning to feel something when you haven’t been able to feel at all.
This record attempts to honor the essence of the blues while embracing grit, chaos, and indifference to conventions like the heavy alternative scene. It was made because it had to be, “just because….” Tropes about “being born under the blood red moon” and other cliches won’t cut it. The words and feelings are for here and now.
Its heavy influenced blues.
The thought with “Heavy Blues” is blues influenced by heavy alternative rock. Emo blues…even if only by intention, not aesthetic. This blues is more overtly dark, lamenting, melancholy, insouciant, frustrated and affected.
