Single Review
Dreadzone - Beyond A RockDreadzone – Beyond A Rock

Dreadzone are back and with a new single called ‘Beyond A Rock’, now I was dreading listening to this song as to be honest I have never heard their music before even though the band have been together since 1993 and enjoyed their fair share of success on Virgin Records with their biggest hit being a single called ‘Little Britain’ which was released in 1996 and reached the top 20 of the UK chart.

Well the new Dreadzone single ‘Beyond A Rock’ starts with a spoken word introduction and then it moves on to a tasty guitar riff that sounds like something out of the 80’s rock scene similar to that on offer from bands such as Europe, Whitesnake and even Def Leppard back in the day, the song then moves on again with fast paced vocals that sound like they have been taken from the dad rock era, then suddenly the vocals take a Mike Skinner from The Streets style turn when MC Spee gets his good minute of lead vocal duties.

‘Beyond A Rock’ is a big mixed song and quite surprisingly it is actually pretty good, in fact I could listen to the song over and over again and I am sure it would grow on me a little more each and every time.

4/5
