Blues möter hårdrock – så vill jag beskriva albumet Trans035 Transubstans med The Chair. På ett pressutskick beskriver bandet sin musik som ”70’s hard rock with an attitude.”
Jag gillar det jag hör, oavsett om det ska kallas blues/hårdrock eller 70-tals hårdrock. Det är fullt ös, det är skön bas och det är attityd. Som de själva hävdar.
The Chair består av en sångare från amerikanska singer-songwriter-traditionen och fyra svenskar på gitarr, bas och trummor.
Jag tycker de har rätt skön beskrivning av skivan på pressutskicket:
This is 70’s Hard Rock, sometime between then and into the future.
A tag on the back, a reminder of what Hard Rock sounded like in the beginning, and why it sounded at all. Takeningen listeners back to an era of masteras, and at the same time tuned in and turned on, wiht a vibe in the now.
This and that, brings us our own sond.
Och blues var en av inspirationskällorna som hårdrocken föddes ur. Så räkna med skön bluesig hårdrock här du lyssnar på The Chair.
Du kan provlyssna på spår från albumet på skivbolagets MySpacesida och på The Chairs egen MySpace-sida, förstås.

The Chair rules!!!!!!!!
About THE CHAIR
Friends, Fans, Family. Please allow me to introduce myself, We are THE CHAIR. When one American Singer-songwriter, four Swedish instrumentalists, and a massive array of heavy grooves met up, melted down, and gave the sounds and songs their textures, The time for the new lifestyle had arrived…at last. This is 70’s Hard Rock, sometime between then and into the future. A tap on the back, a reminder of what Hard Rock sounded like in the beginning and why it sounded at all. Takeing listeners back to an era of masters, and at the same time tuned in and turned on, with a vibe in the now. This and that, brings us our own sound. Stir it up, push play and let the melodies unfold memories old and new. A warm breeze into the common conscience of where the many are currently musicaly desensitized. It Fills the void. A ripple in time, rideing the wave, disrupting the daily grind. With full complement the platform awaits THE CHAIR. New passage for trailblazers, expedition unknown. Space Nomads at the helm for those swarming, an echo for those not listening.
