Vigil Of War has returned, unveiling their second slab of hard rock and
metal entitled Reap What You Sow - and it's a raging gem that all types of
music fanatics will want to check out. Founded by the super charismatic
Alicia Vigil, Vigil Of War has made quite an impact above and beyond the
local Los Angeles music scene. And although Reap What You Sow is less
punky than their 2017 Bite The Bullet debut, there is a grand amount of
ambition and passion to be found within each and every song presented.
After a wickedly blazing Intro, Vigil Of War blasts into the intriguing
reveries of Spoon Fed, featuring absolutely mesmerizing vocals from Alicia,
a towering chorus, and superb performances from all musicians involved.
Vultures slams straight into the heart of the matter with it's vibrancy
and attitude, about "playing the part of the victim so well." Legacy
Remains is liberating and poignant, with Alicia and company delivering
impassioned performances throughout this standout cut. Then it's time for
another haunting Interlude, followed by the powerhouse title track, which
features the one and only Herman Li from Dragonforce making a mighty guest
appearance! No Surrender presents "chaos set in motion," exuding the
rollercoaster sounds of perseverance that are wondrous to behold. And then
after the final Outro, the Reap What You Sow experience has come to an end
way to soon, definitely leaving the listener craving a whole lot more!
Alicia Vigil has grown tremendously as an artist since Bite The Bullet, and
Reap What You Sow is destined to launch the band into the stratosphere at
last! In addition to Ms. Vigil's captivating vocals and pulsating bass
work, the other members from Vigil Of War exude a ton of star appeal as
well. Kiki Wongo is tremendous on guitar, a co-conspirator with Alicia in
the She Demons days, and now a stunning addition to the Vigil Of War
experience. Shane Taylor also delivers ripping guitar licks and sizzling
keys, while Kyle Abbott drives it all home with a vengeance on drums! The
amazing front and back cover art is presented courtesy of Brian M. Viveros.
Reap What You Sow is an inspiration to be sure, a recording that fans will
want to revisit time and again. All this, and Alicia is about to go on tour
with her other band, which is of course the colossal entity known worldwide
as Dragonforce! Be sure to catch Vigil Of War at The Whisky on February
24th and do what is needed to experience the stunning reprieves of Reap
What You Sow.
Ripper's Notes:
You know websites that give glowing reviews of pretty much every album that crosses their CD players, for fear of giving a bad review, and not getting any more free shit from bands and labels? Yeah, the above review reeks of that. But, it also isn't wrong.
Though this record is nowhere near as heavy as the debut, so much so, I'd really call it melodic hard rock, as opposed to heavy metal, it really is excellent. Maybe now it's because Alicia and Shane are now writing for a whole band's strengths, or maybe they are just five years older than when they wrote the first, I don't know, but, it does make me hope we don't have to wait another 4 years for the next record.
Mikey likey! (no, my name isn't Mikey, [It's Janet, Ms. Jackson if you're nasty] you'll get it after you listen)
