Play 90 second soundbite of 'Make The Devil Mad' @ 'CD quality'
Gary 'Mudbone' Cooper calls on many musical influences and styles but stomps uncompromisingly across the gritty blues/rock minefield as he sets out, through fusion and experimentation, to change the way we perceive genre trapped music - result, a solid piece of "modern blues"!
It's not hard to pick out Mudbone's musical influences as the track unfolds; like an modern day alchemist he stirs together funk laced rhythms and soulful hip hop vibes, discordant, often pungent, rock riffs and true delta grit to produce a chunky ingot of 'gold' that could be hallmarked as being pure and original. As familiar as it is fresh, 'Make The Devil Mad' is a product for all seasons and all climates, such is its diverse but wholesome feel.
Not content with being simply 'Jack of all trades' Mudbone aims to be total 'master of all' and unashamedly sets his multi-skilled talents to work here - and to good effect. Commercially, Mudbone pushes enough buttons to gain ranking points in many musical quarters.
Solid and workmanlike 'Make The Devil Mad' mixes it up big style and leaves it to the individual to sample the wares with an open mind and free spirit - just like his music!
