thepirc For anyone who worships at the Altar of Riffs, this album's for you. Favorite track: Deep Empty.

doomcrew 1st release came right out of the Brant Bjork playbook. This release has a different more diverse approach that works for me.The new drummer changed the vibe but still a very cool vibe. Favorite track: The Wraith.

Steve Rodger Judging by how much I love the bands previous release Moon Queen I have no excuse why I’ve not bought this sooner.

Bucky On Glorious Babylon, the boys push the limits they set with Moon Queen almost a decade ago. While they’re not breaking new ground here they have a way of giving you the warm and fuzzies like when Molly Hatchet or Thin Lizzy first broke out in the 1970’s. The melodies are soaked in southern-charm and stamped with the finest fuzz. The songs are loaded with funky bass, catchy riffs, and ear-worm vocals. Favorite track: The Wraith.

about

Lord Fowl took shape in New Haven, CT, in the summer of 2007 with one goal: write songs like those they grew up hearing. Songs that drive you. Songs that come alive. Songs that rock.

With Glorious Babylon, their third LP and second on Small Stone Records, Lord Fowl refuse to compromise this high standard, bringing forth the energy of their dynamic stage presence and dual lead vocals, as the song-craft of singer/guitarists Vechel Jaynes and Mike Pellegrino reaches its next level of progression.

At the helm of BirdsEye Studios in West Haven, CT, as producer, bassist Jon Conine (assisted by Steve Hill) captures Lord Fowl’s vitality as only one part of the fray could hope to do, and though drummer Michael Petrucci has since left the band with Van Hartley stepping in to fill his significant percussive shoes, the drums provide the foundation of Glorious Babylon.

All across the record's 10-song/ 37-minute span, Lord Fowl raise their own bar. After 2008's Endless Dynamite and 2012's Moon Queen, Glorious Babylon arrives as an awaited third chapter in Lord Fowl's peculiar mythology, harnessing the spirit they've brought to stages up and down the East Coast, at SXSW, etc., and breathing life once more into classic, soulful, and psychedelic heavy rock and roll.

With a sound just as likely to nod to Thin Lizzy and a heavy Funkadelic as to early Queen or Paul Di’Anno-era Iron Maiden, it is still the vision and classic purpose of their songwriting that brings the band together. Songs that rock. Old heads, new heads, riff-worshippers and freaks: Lord Fowl have built a city just for you.

Honestly, I hated this band when I first heard their Metal Blade Records debut; I thought the riffs were cool, but the vocals weren't my thing. All that has changed upon hearing this fantastic album, and it's now in daily rotation. Everything about this album is above par, and the vocals are one of the best elements of the group now. If you don't add this to your collection, then you're crazier than I am 😂 Tom's Reviews
