Sunday: Aeges - Fault

     The instrumental well has run dry, but that doesn't mean I'm out of cool stuff to show you. Far from it, this evening I've got something slick and catchy for your earholes.

     In some contexts either "slick" or "catchy" could be a four-letter word, but when talking about today's song from Aeges both are positives that translate into a sound reminiscent of Queens of the Stone Age, if Queens were a little less out there and a little more conventionally heavy. I know it's a bit of a cop-out to label anything post-anything these days, but I don't think post-Queens of the Stone Age would be an unreasonable way of describing the rocking riffage that Aeges look set to bring to the table.

     Have a listen to lead single "Fault" from the band's sophomore LP Above & Down Below for a taste of the slick, catchy goodness that is Aeges.
