Tuesday, September 23: Primal Rock Rebellion, "Search for Bliss"

“Search for Bliss” flowed a bit smoother and was therefore much more in Adrian Smith’s comfort zone than the harsher textures that defined Awoken Broken.  To be sure, the whole point of the Primal Rock Rebellion concept was for the guitarist to stretch and create something heavier and more aggressive, and their one album was certainly that.  Smith deserved credit for trying something unexpected, and he showed just malleable his writing and playing could be as he locked in fairly seamlessly with Mikee Goodman’s dissonant bellow.  That said, “Search for Bliss” worked in large part because it felt more in line with Smith’s day job, and Goodman likewise modulated his occasionally monotonous barking to something slightly more melodic.

Wednesday, May 10: Primal Rock Rebellion, “Savage World”

Primal Rock Rebellion’s sole album was a genuine departure for Adrian Smith: as a writer and guitarist in Iron Maiden as well as with his previous side projects, Smith’s tastes tended to be direct, hook-driven and even radio-friendly in his way, but Awoken Broken was drenched in down-tuned guitars, pummeling drums and Mikee Goodman’s harsh vocals.  Indeed, it said something that “Savage World” was arguably the lightest tune on the album but still out-heavied anything Smith ever did with Maiden, certainly since he rejoined the band in 1999.  Goodman was perhaps the bigger star here, as he didn’t significantly change up his vocals from his time with djent pioneers Sikth, but at the same time, Smith couldn’t help but inject his trademark fluidity, even if his playing was as aggressive as it’s ever been.  In all honesty, even though “Savage World” did have its pleasures, this wasn’t the sort of sound that could sustain itself, and it made perfect sense that both Smith and Goodman would quickly return to their day jobs.
