One of the problems being a music fan living in the far South West is that there are so few live music venues, so it was a pleasant surprise to see Kobra And The Lotus playing an independent pub venue not that far up the road, in the backwater town of Bridgwater, Somerset. It is such a shame more pub owners dont see the benefit of providing decent live music venues, with a powerful sound system and flexible lighting rig, but thank goodness the Cobblestones landlord has that foresight (and provides a damn good range of beer too!)

Proving how a local venue benefits the local music scene were first act (and judging by their relationship with the crowd, house band) Pretty Little Enemy. It’s almost impossible to not like a band with such a great name, but P.L.E. provide the image and music to turn that like to love. Vocalist Louise Body is the consummate rock chick. The bottle of tequila by the mic stand, the latex skirt, metal effect bra, and punk attitude, all catch your eye before the band kick into the first song. Ably backed by some shredding and riffing from the equally visually striking guitarist Georgia Bell, bear-like bassist Jason Coles, and drummer Ben Dean, their brief time on stage is a delight. Body puts the already enthusiastic crowd on “tit watch” as her stage attire does its best to leave her exposed, and there is even a small but enthusiastic mosh pit (a first for me for an opening band in this size venue!) To make a mark in this business you need a U.S.P. and Pretty Little Enemy have several. Check out their cleverly titled EP “Bitch PLEase”, and in particular “Vertebreak”, which shows their potential and vitality at its finest. 

Brutai take a more cerebral approach to their music. We were treated to depths of complex keyboards, twin guitars, and thought provoking song craft. The Londoners, nominated for ‘Best New Band’ at the Metal Hammer Golden Gods Awards, showed us why they are being talked about in some impressive circles. Vocalist Felix Lawrie switches impressively between a soft, tuneful style and a deep, growling metal roar. Lead guitarist Henry Ryan lays down layer after layer of complex guitar sounds and blends them with the works of keyboard player Alex Lorimer. The animation comes courtesy of dreadlocked bassist Christian Sturgess, and backing it all with some technically impressive drum patterns is Mathieu Bauer. This end of the spectrum isn’t usually my cup of tea to listen to, so it’s a real compliment to say I thoroughly enjoyed their set, and the range of songs they gave us. Set opener “Deep”, the soundstage of “Relapse” and the complex crescendo of “The Border” were my highlights of the set, and their 2016 album “Born” is definitely worth giving some ear time, if the idea of a young pretender to the prog/metal ranks appeals. 

Before the show, I was part of a conversation with Kobra And The Lotus bassist Brad Kennedy, where he was talking about how they have played venues from 30 to 30,000 and try to treat them all the same. A laudable aim, but can a band really do that? Well, in the case of Kobra and the Lotus, they sure can! The Cobblestones is tiny, basically a skittle alley with speakers and lights, but the band hit the stage with the attitude of a festival headliner, and earned huge respect from me in the process. “Hello, Bridgewater”may never carry the weight of “Good Evening, Budokan”, or “Scream for me, Knebworth” but for one night it really did! This is a band loving what they do, and making sure they send the crowd, however big, home having seen a show. 

Kobra Paige brings a more mature attitude to the business than her predecessor in P.L.E., with a kettle of hot water as refreshment and vocal support, rather than a bottle of tequila, and a stage costume that’s going nowhere she doesn’t want it to. She is just as energetic though, leaping, posing, preening, and leading the band with huge energy and commitment. The band behind her make the most of every inch of the tiny stage, and are as tight as any four musicians have a right to be. Opening with three songs from new album “Prevail I”; the massive, anthemic “Gotham”, pure head banger “TriggerPulse”, and “Specimen X”. Kobra’s voice is sublime, and Marcus Lee drives the sound from the back, with huge presence, my other half’s commenting that he looked like Khal Drogo! We leave the new album for some older material that shows just how underrated Kobra and her team are. Delights such as the almost Nightwishy “Soldier”, a snippet of Led Zep’s “Immigrant Song”, “You Don’t Know”, and “Prevail”, with its twin guitar attack, pepper the set, and the energy levels don’t drop for a second. 

As leaving the stage involves walking through the crowd and out of the venue via the smoking area, Kobra announces that rather than play the game of waiting to be called back for an encore they will just keep going, so the band don’t even get a break before hitting the encores. Final song “50 Shades of Evil”, with its frantic guitar from Jasio Kulakowski and insane drumming from Lee, raises the energy level even higher, and is probably the best showcase of Kobra’s soaring vocals in the entire set.  

I hope I get to see Kobra And The Lotus on a bigger stage sometime soon to see how their infectious energy and musical ability translate, but for a little pub in a sleepy backwater, known more for the Morrison’s delivery hub than heavy metal and flying hair, this was a cracking night out.

ALBUM REVIEW / KOBRA AND THE LOTUS

Prevail I (2017)

Available also in English

La banda oriunda de Calgary, Canadá, nos trae su cuarto disco de estudio, titulado «Prevail I». En él, nos encontramos con una evolución en el sonido de la banda, volcado un poco más al rock que en sus discos anteriores, pero manteniendo la impronta de metal que han sabido dar a su discografía.

The band from Calgary, Canada, brings us their fourth studio album, named ‘Prevail I’. We can find an evolution of the band’s sound in this record, there is a bit more of rock than in previous records, but keeping their metal essence and identity that comes all through their discography.

En esta nueva entrega, a la primera escucha, se destaca la guitarra ejecutada magistralmente por Jasio -apellido raro- Kulakowski, y también merece mención de honor la batería a cargo de Marcus Lee. Kobra Paige, por su parte, no se queda atrás y sigue dando muestras de la gran potencia y versatilidad de su voz.

In this new album, at the first listen, the part that stands out the most is the guitar played in a terrific way by Jasio ‘weird surname’ Kulakowski, and also, the drums played by Marcus Lee deserve an honorable mention. Kobra Paige isn’t left behind and she demonstrates one more time the great power and versatility in her voice.

El disco abre con “Gotham”; al igual que la mítica ciudad del hombre murciélago, es un lugar plagado de maldad y corrupción, una ciudad olvidada por Dios. El riff de guitarra de este tema es excelente y la potencia de la batería es lo que más me llega. La voz de Kobra se adapta a cada uno de los acordes y el solo de Jasio es magnífico; definitivamente, la mejor elección para abrir el álbum.

The opening track is “Gotham”, a city that, just like Batman’s mythical city, is a placed plagued by evil and corruption, a city that was forgotten by God. The main guitar riff on this track is excellent, but the most transcendental thing is the power within the drums. Kobra adapts her voice to every chord of the song and Jasio’s guitar solo is magnificent. Definitely this is the best choice for an opening track.

“TriggerPulse” le sigue, y aunque no es nueva -ya que se publicó como primer single adelanto del disco-, baja un poco la fuerza con la que había empezado el disco y resulta ser más ambiental que la canción anterior, pero nos muestra otra cara de lo que será la temática del disco. La guitarra y la voz se llevan todos los aplausos. 

“TriggerPulse” comes next, although it’s not a new song since this is the first preview single of the record, and lows down a bit the power of the beginning of the album, and it turns out to be more like a background song. However, we can hear a different side of what’s going to be the album's theme. The guitar and the voice take every applause.

En tercer lugar viene “You Don’t Know”, quizás la canción más radio friendly del disco, pero no por eso deja de ser un gran tema. Es más melódica que las anteriores, pero muy pegadiza y con un gran riff.

At the third place we have “You Don’t Know”, maybe the most radio friendly song on the album, but still a great song. It sounds more like a melodic song, but really catchy and with a great riff.

El disco continua con “The Specimen X (The Mortal Chamber)”. Aquí volvemos a tener un track enérgico y muy potente, donde lo que se destaca es la batería, aunque sobre la mitad de la canción la guitarra cobra protagonismo. La canción te sumerge en una atmósfera de impotencia y agotamiento, es una de las más movilizadoras del álbum.

The album continues with “The Specimen X (The Mortal Chamber)”. Here we have a powerful and full of energy track again, where the drums stand out, although around half way of the song the guitar takes starring. The song takes us into an exhausting and full of impotence atmosphere. This is one of the most touching songs at the album.

“Light Me Up” se encuentra en quinto lugar, y es, a mi entender, la canción más triste y apacible del disco, una gran balada. La voz potente y característica de Kobra aquí muestra una vena mucho más dulce. Es mi canción favorita del disco.

“Light Me Up” is at the fifth place and is, in my point of view, the most sad and peaceful song in the album. It’s a great ballad. The powerful and unique voice of Kobra shows a really sweeter side. This is my favourite song of the album.

Como sexta canción nos encontramos a “Manifest Your Destiny”, la que luego del bajón emotivo del tema anterior, nos devuelve la fuerza que vimos en el comienzo, pero no la velocidad. Posee un ritmo medio, con gran presencia de guitarras y la voz.

As a sixth song we find “Manifest Your Destiny”, a song that brings back the force from the beginning after the emotional valley of the previous song. However, we don’t get the speed back. It has a medium rhythm, with a big presence of guitars and the voice.

El disco continúa con “Victim”. Aquí nos encontramos con el mejor riff de todo el álbum; el resto de los instrumentos sigue la misma línea que la canción anterior. 

The album goes on with “Victim”. Here we find the best riff of the whole album, the rest of the instruments follow the same path of the previous song.

“Check The Phyrg” es la instrumental del disco, y nos muestra el virtuosismo de los integrantes de la banda. A mi entender, es una gran canción y da la sensación de una lucha interna. La guitarra es fantástica, al igual que la batería, pero el bajo es el que se merece los laureles.

“Check The Phyrg” is the instrumental track of the album, and we can really appreciate the virtuosity of the band members. On my point of view, this is a great song, and it feels like an internal struggle. The guitar is fantastic, as it also the drums, but the bass players takes gets the bays this time.

Luego llega “Hell On Earth”, la canción apropiada para desatar el infierno en la Tierra, con la que volvemos a presenciar un Kobra And The Lotus rápido y potente. La canción está perfectamente ajustada y se merece un lugar de privilegio.

After that we have “Hell On Earth”, the right song to unleash the hell on Earth, in which we experience again to Kobra And The Lotus being fast and furious. The song is perfectly adjusted, and it deserves a privilege place.

Para cerrar el álbum tenemos a “Prevail”, mi tema preferido para hacer headbang. La canción nos promete que vamos a lograr prevalecer a todos los desafíos que se nos presenten, y es difícil estar en desacuerdo con la letra y el gran despliegue musical. Cada vez que necesite levantar mi ánimo, este tema será una de mis canciones de cabecera.

To close the album, we have “Prevail”, my favourite song for headbanging. The song promises that we are going to stand against every challenge that we can find along the life, and it’s hard to disagree with those lyrics and that huge musical display. This song is going to be one of my top songs whenever I feel like I need some cheer up.

«Prevail I» cuenta con diez canciones que nos muestran diferentes matices de lucha contra lo externo y lo interno, y el lograr prevalecer frente a ello. Es un disco plagado de emociones, con mucha potencia, que cierra con una declaración de “aquí estoy y nada va a detenerme”. Con este álbum, KATL nos muestran que están viviendo un gran presente, y dejan sentadas las bases para un futuro aún mejor.

«Prevail I» consists of ten songs that show different views of struggles against the external and internal, and prevail against that. This is an album full of emotions, with a lot of power that is closed with a declaration, stating “Here I am, nothing’s going to stop me”. With this album, KATL makes it clear that they’re living a great present, and leave the base for an even better future.
