lyrics
Headlong into the storm.
Hammer down, I won't be long.
Valhalla bound at the speed of sound.
I'm in a pitch black Cadillac.
Gonna speed through Hel and back.
I am the prophecy -
so get behind me.
Gimme gimme more speed!
I got my Valkyrie and a flagon of mead.
I'm gonna shake the earth.
All you need is speed!
Full fledged berserker rage.
Pushing red on the fuckin' gauge.
I bring the thunder.
I tear asunder.
Teeth grindin'
got a lead boot.
The world stopped when the serpent shook.
I see the cities burn in the rear-view,
I'm just about to break through.
Gimme gimme more speed!
I got my Valkyrie and a righteous steed.
We're gonna shake the earth.
All you need is speed!

An absolute banger from our all time favourite Canadian band. Also, we got Vincent featuring on our new album, and we're pretty amped about it. Ruff Majik

How lucky of me to find this band, and what a shame it took them 8 albums for me to find them. In particular, I love the swagger/frivolity of their playing.
Also the delicacy of the guitarist on some tracks (reminds of Stone Rebel at times)

These ratbastards kept it simple and friendly, playing blues and boogie for folks who just wanted to down their likker and smoke their bongs to the sound of some good-time rock’n’roll. Unlike, say, Sweet, the guys in Gods and Punks needn’t look back at old photos of themselves in glittering silver crotch-high platform boots and say, “What was I thinking? I look like a total git! Old Man Doom
Combining crooned murder ballads with raw, angsty hard rock hooks, Melbourne's The Ugly Kings are a wrecking crew well worth watching. Bandcamp New & Notable Sep 15, 2021
