This week's unsigned discovery - Sons of Lioth

I love listening to new stuff on bandcamp, it's probably the hunter/gatherer instinct. It's so rewarding when you find a gem. And you don't often have to hunt very far to find an unsigned band playing music that competes with the week's best commercial releases.

Today's discovery is Belgian band Sons of Lioth. The music covers diverse topics from lighthearted sci-fi to more serious swords and dragons. The style is pretty consistent though. They cite Priest, AC/DC and Maiden as influences and that gives you the feel.

The next and more sad discovery is that the band have decided to call it a day.

All four of their releases are available online for reasonably small amounts of cash. I chose the cover of Large Hadron Spider for this post because I love the artwork and the pun.
