SINGLE REVIEW: Somewhere Stranger - King of the Gods

‘King of the Gods’ marks a powerful return for Somewhere Stranger, who formed along the Oregon coast in 2007 and are now unveiling tracks from their new album, *Delta Minor*. This hard rock and metal anthem is nothing short of relentless, delivering an unpredictable and refreshing sound that grips from the very first note.

The track is unapologetically groove-driven, characterised by blistering energy and thrilling dynamics. Raw and authentic vocals soar over epic riffs, punctuated by a punchy bassline and captivating drums that keep the momentum alive. The exhilarating atmosphere is only heightened by a killer guitar solo that showcases the band’s technical prowess and adds a layer of excitement to the mix.

While the overall sound is dynamic and confident, one critique lies in the mix, as the vocals sometimes feel slightly swamped by the music. A touch more clarity would elevate the listening experience even further, allowing the powerful lyrics to shine through more distinctly. Despite this minor quibble, ‘King of the Gods’ remains an addictive track that showcases Somewhere Stranger’s relentless drive and undeniable talent, leaving listeners eager for more from *Delta Minor*.
