This band, DIABLO BLVD, named after a Corrosion Of Conformity song, lead by notorious stand-up comedian and above all music devotee Alex Agnew, quickly started to turn heads. With current members of bands like A Brand, Born From Pain and The Ditch, this eclectic five-piece started playing shows to appreciative crowds all over Belgium and the Netherlands. From the first note of their demo, a fresh take on heavy music was being developed, and the fans latched on in record time. Building on their groovy riffs, catchy choruses and a charismatic stage presence, DIABLO BLVD offers what made their heroes great and then some. With influences that pull from a wide range of staples in the heavy genre - from Danzig to The Cult, Guns 'N Roses to Black Label Society – and songwriting with classic rock'n roll and old blues only one step away, DIABLO BLVD's ability to absorb their musical surroundings and spit out something all their own is most impressive. After a sold-out demo, the band worked more than 2 years on their upcoming debut-album: 'The Greater God'. The new album which is scheduled for March 2009 on PIAS features even better song writing, catchier moments, a more distinct sound and above all Alex Agnew who's unafraid to sing and scream if called for, reminiscing of Glenn Danzig's and Ian Astbury's vocal style while making it totally his own. Produced by one of Belgium's most promising producers Ace Zec and mixed by Dutch veteran Oscar Holleman, this record will be one of the most powerful rock albums of 2009. DIABLO BLVD is breaking new ground within the Belgian music scene while nipping at the heels of even the most evolved independent bands out there today.
