Bio:
Loaded Billy are an Adelaide based hard rock band.The band signed a worldwide record deal with Wormholedeath Records December 23.The music is an amalgam of great melodies, awesome vocals, big riff driving guitars and a pounding kick-arse rhythm section with songs that explore a variety of topics about people and the world.You know it’s Loaded Billy as soon as you hear that first riff, high powered rock that’s alive and well in the 21st century. Its toe tappin head bangin riff driven pleasure.Described by audiences and fellow musicians as ‘insanely talented’ – ‘stadium rock’ – ‘unique’ – ‘world class’ ‘an emotional experience’ – ‘perfection’.Their songs are entrenched in a rich musical background: their stage presence imbues an energy that consumes the audience … its toe tappin, head banging, riff driven pleasure.
Album:
Legend could be conceived as a semi-conceptual story; much is based around the tale of a boy and a girl who both left their country upbringing for the promise of a better life in the big city. Better life…well, that’s not necessarily what happens. They are two different people who don’t know each other yet their stories are connected in both tragedy and love.There are also songs that have strong storylines with how the world is today. Songs about exploitation, disenfranchised youth, addiction and mental health, the dangers of modern technology, tragedy, hard choices, and ‘one’ paying their dues.The stories are relatable and will appeal to anyone either young or old.Musically: it’s all about classic heavy guitar riffs, thoughtful melodic solo’s, thunder drums and bass, tight arrangements and vocals that are strong and clear as they tell the stories.‘Legend’ is a true album listening experience. The album takes you on a journey that’s reminiscent of those classic albums from the 70’s and 80’s.The entire album is a playlist in itself. 7 of the 11 songs exceed the 6minute mark but you’d never know. The album has a cover of Budgie’s ‘I Turn to Stone’.A tribute to Burke Shelly who passed in Jan 2022. Loaded Billy’s recording of the song has been given the seal of approval from Budgie’s founding member Ray Phillips and current drummer Steve Williams. The album was recorded and mixed entirely at Loudtoys Studio. Produced by Willi Gutwein, engineered by Sam Gutwein and mixed by both Willi & Sam. Mastered by the legendary Rick O’Neil at Turtlerock Mastering.As stated by Brendan Franz (former weekly writer and reviews editor – ‘Rip It Up Magazine’) in his review “Legend” is indeed an impressive effort which should stand up on its own. The production is as flawless as the performances themselves”
