Here is an appropriately thunderous song from Canadian rockers Zeus [Twitter/Facebook]. If you’ve heard of them before, it’ll probably be because they are signed to the rather excellent Arts & Crafts in North America, but have just recently been picked up by So Recordings over here. It is in that label that they are due to release their second album Busting Visions on August 13th, the artwork for which is above. The first single will be Are You Gonna Waste My Time, which gets launched here later in the month. It’s a wonderfully old-fashioned sounding rock song that simultaneously manages to sound contemporary. It also features some cowbell. Who doesn’t like that? There’s also some muscular drumming, some wonderful guitar shredding towards the end of the song, and some rather excellent vocals. You would expect a band named after the mythological Greek King of the Gods to be suitably impressive, right? Well, in this case, what you see is what you get. It has to be said that this song is pretty godly. Get it in your ears, either via a Soundcloud stream, or via the absolutely fantastic promo clip:
