BlackDiamond

Think Australian rock ‘n’ roll band. Conjures up quite the image doesn’t it? There is, after all, something of a heritage. If you’re thinking little fella in a school uniform, big riffs, belting grooves and breathtaking live shows, BlackDiamond are going to be right up your street.
Hailing from Newcastle in New South Wales, BlackDiamond aren’t just a splash of AC/DC attitude, they are equal parts a sprinkle of Queen glamour and a pinch of Guns N Roses pomp with more than a little 80s ceremony tucked in their back pocket.
Their self titled debut album is quite the treat for anyone who appreciates honest, no frills, head shaking, rump rocking, straight down the middle rock ‘n’ roll purveyed by 80s legends such as Def Leppard, Jovi, Mötley Crüe and the like. You can call it Dirty Glam if you like.
And if you like the sound of it, just wait until you actually hear it. ‘Devil Woman’, from the opening screech, is a total heads down belter. Big chugging riffs, huge voice, totally infectious, or you might prefer ‘Takin’ Tracks’ with a rip roaring melody that’ll face you down like an express train.
The album was recorded at Melbourne’s One Music studio during July and August 2012. ‘TITLE HERE’ not only serves up unabashed tunage, but it comes fully fitted with the undisputable skills of production duo of Mark Opitz and Colin Wynne at the controls - the Opitz half of which needs no introduction having worked with too many Oz bands worth their salt including the likes of AC/DC, INXS and Hoodoo Gurus.
