Black Star Riders Star Discusses New Album
. (Classic Rock) Black Star Riders guitarist Damon Johnson says the beauty of the band's new album lies in the simplicity of its riffs. The Thin Lizzy spin-off band release second album The Killer Instinct next month via Nuclear Blast. And Johnson says mainman Ricky Warwick's prolific writing made it a pleasure to work on. Johnson tells MetalTalk: "It's pretty special to be in a band with someone who writes as prolifically as Ricky does. The riffs on this album are very powerful and I think a lot of that is in the simplicity of them. "Sometimes it's better to have a guy that isn't necessarily so technically proficient. Anything that he plays comes from emotion and more times than not, well keep the simplicity of his riff and then take it to a different place." Warwick and Johnson discuss some of the tracks on the record, with Warwick explaining the story behind the song Soldierstown. Read that here.
