Here on Stereofox we usually promote new and upcoming artists which is not the case with the next band. Mourning Tide are anything but new since they formed in 2000 and were active until..umm.. last year if I am to judge by their twitter and facebook page. Maybe I should not strike them off my list but it seems some of the members are having side projects and Mourning Tide have not had a concert in a while.

The guys from Gold Coast, Australia are playing an awesome mix of hard/classic rock and metal. I am particularly fond of the vocals - rough and hoarse. Besides that, the lead singer has a killer mustache which automatically elevates the band to another whole level.

"Viva Lamprey" is from their self-titled album from 2010. If you you end up enjoying the song I suggest you listen to more songs like "Viper Town", "Sink Ya Teeth in" and "24 Hour Zoo"from their first album Trash n Burn from 2006.
