Strange Karma: Cold Blooded

Strange Karma are from the Antipodes and Cold Blooded is only available on vinyl although for reviewing purposes streaming was employed. In somewhat atypical move from a band geographically stranded there is a melting pot of influences at play on the album. Led Zeppelin are a clear one, I hear Ian Astbury from the Cult in some of the intonation – not something that I generally dig but it's tolerable here.

"Devil from the Moon" is the key tune here – in a different life there may have been some airplay. Not in 2017 alas. Strange Karma have a pleasing knack for fist-pumping, anthemic classic rock such as the title track which sits snuggly on side two and sews together a solid side before the closer "Dreams" where all the stops are pulled out and roundly trounced – it would certainly have me replacing the needle over and over on side two but I shall settle on pressing the back button on my music playing device.
