3 Wheeler Band Announce New Album In the Name of the Holy Riff
I mean, yeah, that’s a teaser. There’s not quite 30 seconds of music included and you just get a brief glimpse of what I’m going to assume is the Steven Yoyoda‘s cover art. And if you’re wondering what Monterrey, Mexico’s 3 Wheeler Band are doing it for, clearly they’re doing it In the Name of the Holy Riff.
One assumes that the ‘holy riff,’ like the holy grail, is a thing to be pursued into perpetuity — the search for the perfect expression of the thing. Hard to imagine that, if such a riff were to exist, Tony Iommi or Matt Pike didn’t already write it, to say nothing of Leif Edling, but hell’s bells, wading through the work of those three is the stuff of riff-archaeology adventures supreme, and I don’t know about you, but I would watch that movie regardless of who they got to put on the Indiana Jones hat or the Lara Croft shorty-shorts. Or, more likely, both. And in that case, it would probably be The Rock.
Wait. Did I just start a screenplay?
No word on an exact release date for In the Name of the Holy Riff — the album, not the film; that’ll be out by May with an even-grittier reboot penciled in for Thanksgiving — but the band’s thus-far-reveal-ready details and that teaser follow here:
3 Wheeler Band – New album teaser
3 Wheeler Band is working on final details of their third full album titled In the Name of the Holy Riff. It contains 10 new tracks full of heavy riffs and is being recorded at Madera Studios by our dear friend Abraham Madera in Monterrey, Mexico.
The artwork for the cover has been completed by the awesome stoner rock artist Steven Yoyada and our plan is to release the new album in 2022.
Attached you’ll find the teaser video for the album with a sound clip of the title track In the Name of the Holy Riff. This clip is a rough mix still and the sound is direct from the sound source of our instruments, no full mix, no master, no tweaks, just rock n roll straight to your skull.
