The Devil's Blood
With a name like The Devil's Blood and an apparent penchant for all things
Satanic and occult, one could imagine a frosty black metal band or perhaps
Sabbath-inspired doom.
But this duo,
comprised of instrumentalist Selim Lemouchi and sister/vocalist Farida,
is anything but that, instead we've got
70's-influenced,
pyschedelic quirky hard rock, really quite a trip.
Imagine, maybe, mid-period
Blue Oyster Cult
with vocals by ...
someone else mentioned Grace Slick crossed with Ann Wilson, and that's
a fair comparison.
She's clearly not a typical metal
vocalist, but fitting for this atypical band who was only fleetingly
metal at best.
It's fair to say that this band was as responsible for any for the
occult rock mini-boom that took place during their tenure.
The band kept a rather low profile during its rather short run,
disbanding in 2013 just as people were starting to figure out what they
were all about.
Selim sadly committed suicide a year later.
