”Drums Of War” may very well be the heaviest and darkest song of the new BLINDSTONE album, “Scars To Remember”. It is obvious what the new single from the Danish blues rock power trio is about, and why it was written. Martin wrote the music for the song, right around the time the war in Ukraine broke out, and the lyrics were written, in collaboration with Peter Svensson (Gauntlet Rule, Assassin’s Blade) shortly after.
“It is a song about how ordinary people may experience the threat of war against their country, and the fears and insecurities that present themselves, when the war becomes reality”, Martin says.
Apart from Blindstone themselves, the song also features Xenius Jepsen Andersen, Martin’s youngest son, on additional drums.
Blindstone is proud to announce the new album ”Scars To Remember”. After being the best-kept secret within the heavy side of blues rock, as part of the “closed” blues scene for two decades, the band is now moving to Mighty Music and finally getting the recognition they deserve.
”Scars To Remember” is the tenth album from the Danish-based blues power trio, which has its stylistic roots in the late ’60s and ’70s, with inspiration from bands/artists such as Jimi Hendrix, Robin Trower, Frank Marino & Mahogany Rush, Deep Purple, Black Sabbath, and others.
