Album Review: Black Spiders- Can’t Die, Won’t Die

Can’t Die Won’t Die is the fourth album from Sheffield based rock band Black Spiders. This album was an album a bit out of my usual listening comfort zone, if you have read my reviews regularly, you may have noticed my preference of grrrl rock, but when I received the promotion email, I was intrigued to hear more from this rock band I hadn’t really acquainted myself with. After all, I do also love a lot of classic rock bands and there was definitely this sort of vibe about them.

Being a little out of my usual comfort zone, I wasn’t sure about the album to begin with, but with a few more listens Can’t Die Won’t Die began to grow on me. The album is filled with punch in the air anthems such as track ‘Alright Alright Alright’ and ‘Destroyer’. I feel like the album would make the perfect soundtrack for a road trip with your friends. The music has a driven energy and enthusiasm about it that keeps you coming back for more. 

The band said of the album “It’s a party album from top to tail, everyone a banger! As usual there is something for everyone and maybe some surprises. We went all out, balls out on this record, each track is an ear worm…”
