Belgian
heavy rockers 23 Acez release their third album Embracing the Madness and I’ve duly obliged, playing it on repeat
for days. Contemporary riffs grab the
attention but they are balanced by convincing classic rock moments of both
melody and amazing lead guitar fretwork.
The band has diamonds in depth with outstanding vocals from founder and
guitarist Benny “Zors” Willaertand and the pounding drums of Louis Van der Linden impress. I was captivated by the variety of this
upbeat rock album and this band deserve more recognition for their melodies,
musicianship and power of their well-written songs. Contrary to Consequence of Sound’s recent
headline “Beyonce Reigns; Rock Dies: Coachella 2018”this album is ample
evidence rock music continues to defy its critics and continues to evolve
worldwide.
