As you hopefully know, I run a second music site called
We Own This Town that strives to highlight music from the Nashville area that exists outside the perceived stereotype of the city and, ideally, is flying under the radar for most folks.
One recent accidental discovery is the full-length debut from
Woodsplitter, a mesmerizing blend of big metal riffs, alto sax solos and mellotron interludes. I don't know how he manages to make it work but it does.
After a little more research, it turns out this is the brainchild of Ben McLeod (not
that one), from the band
All Them Witches - another Nashville band well worth your time.
On the whole, Woodsplitter is a bit of anomaly and, thus, the reason for sharing.
