Swami John Reis - Ride The Wild Night (2022) Hi-Res

It is now impossible to stop Swami John Reis. Whoever is responsible for the success of formations such as Hot Snake or Drive Like Jehu has not said his last word. The proof with his new solo album entitled Ride The Wild Night.

It will take ten pieces for a good half hour of music for Swami John Reis to continue to bewitch us. Halfway between garage-punk and incisive rock'n'roll, the American veteran lays the foundations with, among other things, the introductory title track before continuing with the visceral energy of titles such as "I Ain't Your Pawn » or even « When I Kicked Him In The Face » and « Days Of Auld Lang Syne ».

With Ride The Wild Night, the musician continues to impress us with very shattering hymns including "Vape In The Dark Alone" and "Rip From The Bone". Swami John Reis opens up to us without any difficulty and we manage to identify with him, especially on “We Broke The News” and the very biting conclusion named “Keeper Of The Plains”. For this new album, the thinking head of Hot Snakes demonstrates that he has not said his last word.
