Bio:
Melodic hard rock band Scarlet Rebels were formed from the foundations of rock band V0iD.The band have released three official albums under the name of V0iD – Ballads For Beauties And Beasts (2009), Zer0 (2010) and Keep Fighting (2015).In 2018, singer-songwriter Wayne Doyle, energetic and powerhouse drummer Gary Doyle and harmonic, rhythmic bassist Wayne ‘Pricey’ Esmonde we’re joined by blistering lead guitarist Chris Jones and on second guitar/keyboards, Josh Townshend, who has rock royalty flowing through his veins, being the son of The Who guitarist Simon Townshend and the nephew of rock icon Pete Townshend.And with the re-energised and re-imagined line-up came a new name – SCARLET REBELS.‘Show Your Colours’ is the debut album by Scarlet Rebel, showcasing an array of songwriting talent, coupled with real sonic weight, making it a stunning record from start to finish, never losing the focus that the song is always served best.With the expert ears of Tim Hamill (Lemmy, Girlschool, George Michael) controlling the desk, the recording process started with drums and rhythm guitars before then handing over to the rest of the band to put their stamp on the songs.The outcome was 14 songs of soaring melodies, anthemic choruses, blistering guitars and heavy-duty drums.Taking inspiration from the political situations across the world. Songs like ‘No One Else To Blame’ starts with a punch to the guts, thanks to a roaring guitar intro from Chris Jones, and sets the tone for the whole album. ‘You Take My Breath Away’ hits you with chorus of huge proportions while the talkbox intro and rant of ‘Head’s In The Ground’ follows.Next up is southern influenced ‘Part Of Me’ followed by the beautiful and poignant ‘Heal’ which climaxes with a duel chorus of two separate voices conversing. ‘Let Your Love Go’, ‘Nothing To Say’ and ‘Save Me’ maintain the highest of songwriting prowess and are all huge choruses based around roaring guitars and skull-busting drums.’Blinded By The Pain’ follows with lyrical content based around mental health, which starts as a quiet introspective verse, that builds into a crescendo of layered vocals, guitars and pianos. ‘Shattered Dreams’ kicks the tempo back up with tribal drums, guitars and powerful vocals, before ‘Can I Open My Eyes’ sees an autobiographical lament from singer Wayne Doyle, who’s tendency to get lost in the moment on stage means he often forgets the details of each show! The album closes with the sublime ‘Returning Light’ a haunting ballad about bereavement and losing someone close to you.Scarlet Rebels prove on this album that songwriting, melodies, guitars, solos, bass and drums won’t ever go out of fashion.
Album:
Welsh hard rockers SCARLET REBELS have every right to be very pleased with themselves right now. The five-piece are set to grab the rock world by the balls with their debut album ‘Show Your Colours’, out 9th August 2019 via ROAR! Rock of Angels Records, and lead single, ‘No One Else To Blame’ is currently sitting pretty in the #1 spot on both the Amazon Rock and Hard Rock & Metal Charts.Originally a trio, Wayne Doyle (vocals/guitar), Wayne ‘Pricey’ Esmonde (bass) and Gary Doyle (drums) have risen from the ashes of their old moniker, V0iD, with the addition of Chris Jones on lead guitar and Josh Townshend on second guitar/keyboard last year, and since then the band have gone from strength to strength. Starting this year in fine form by winning a slot on next year’s Main Stage at Giants of Rock, SCARLET REBELS have since been touring relentlessly up and down the length and breadth of the country, gaining new fans at every stop.This first release since the band’s rebirth begins in blistering fashion with ‘No One Else To Blame’, the single that has ignited flames all around the rock world. The dancing riff that opens the song and continues throughout is one that won’t quit whirling round inside my head, along with the hooky chorus and slamming drum beats. The single is receiving extensive airplay on Planet Rock and Kerrang! and not without good reason. Simply put, it’s a finely calibrated track that wows.What follows is an album that clearly demonstrates what SCARLET REBELS have, and that is talent. Their ability to craft such fine rock songs is distinct throughout the fourteen tracks on offer (two are bonus streaming tracks only). Their versatility shines through on the Southern influenced ‘Part Of Me’. The guitars in this are fantastic, bracing licks and monster riffs galore, and awesome pounding drums too! I can almost picture it as a soundtrack to a ‘Young Guns’ type of film (yes, I grew up in the ’80s!).‘Heal’ is a real standout song for me. It’s such a slowly building song that explodes in the chorus with killer riffs, booming bass and thrashing drums and cymbals, plus backing vocals that are dynamite in my earphones. The way the instrumentation and vocals slowly build and the way they all sound so intense together is just so powerful! One of the best songs I have heard this year!With lyrics on the subject of mental health and with beautifully slow building verses and crashing choruses, ‘Blinded By The Pain’ is breathtaking. Wayne’s voice takes on a hypnotic quality that seems to transport me to another place. ‘Can I Open My Eyes’ is a hooky, riff-driven track with brooding lyrics delivered in an upbeat style. It’s the type of energetic, vivid song that will have you dancing round your living room like you simply don’t give a fuck! The beautiful ‘Returning Light’ is an emotive ballad on the subject of loss. The emotionally-rich tones of Wayne’s voice in this are magnificent, and the tones of the guitars are stunning.‘Show Your Colours’ is an album packed full of melodic, invigorating and emotive rock tunes that lift the senses, and illustrate the accomplished musicianship of the band. From the ballsy and political opener that punches you in the face, to the slowly building, powerful ‘Heal’, there is something for every rocker here. No wonder these guys are pulling crowds and building on their solid reputation as incredible songwriters and performers.
