Accolades for Self Titled
Grand Magus, hailing out of Sweden, hits you down home and hard with their raw blues based soul rock...Great heavy riffs rounded out by great vocals. Knowing that they are Swedish didn't really surprise me. The music is classic rooted rock and reminded me right off the bat of other great Swedish bands like Mammoth Volume and Terra Firma. I must say that Grand Magus is a tad bit more on the doom side of life than the rest.. If you are into Terra Firma, Roachpowder, Mammoth Volume- this is right up your alley...it shares similar interests with those bands musically but still- Grand Magus has their own fish to fry.
Mix a little Mammoth Volume and Spiritual Beggars with a little Spirit Caravan and Place of Skulls and you'll have something similar to Grand Magus. It's one hell of a mix!! Highly recommended!
