“You don’t care” by Velvet Razor (C) 2013 All rights reserved. Taken from the Velvet Razor EP “Razor’s Edge – The Garden Studio Sessions”
About::
Released in July 2006, this song is in the classic rock style (with a twist of mod), it is music with an incessant driving and hypnotic rhythm, music that conjures overtones of “The Doors”. Breathy, deep vocals that mourn for lost love.Ray Manzarek of The Doors style keyboards, a persistent blues guitar riff that subtly works its way deep into your brain. Tension-building drumming that releases in the climactic choruses. “You don’t care” wears it’s 60’s/70’s badge with pride.
Influences::
The Doors, The manic street preachers

Reviews::
Lemonrock had this to say about the songs influences...
Red Hot Chili Peppers, Hothouse_Flowers, Del Amitri, with
perhaps a nod to 60s psychedelia à la Small faces and the
menace of Manic Street Preachers, his is irresistible
listening. Great to hear original quality material from a
live gigging band." Editor @ Lemonrock .co .uk

"The shimmering sun" by Velvet Razor (C)
2013 All rights reserved.
Taken from the Velvet Razor EP
"The Wyvern - The WSC (Wessex) Studio Sessions"
Released in February 2008
About::
This song contains Electric Guitar & Acoustic guitars, (both 6
string and 12 string variety). The music is infused with war siren
keyboards, as well as arpeggio piano runs. It is in the style of
an arabesque rock. The song is driven by insistent throbbing bass
guitar riffs and all transported by dynamic drums by a rhythmic,
tasteful and powerful drummer. This song evokes far away lands,
ancient as well as modern times. It speaks of forbidden mystical
love, the multitude of obstacles for its hero; it echoes the
futility of wars and its location is in the deep desert among the
sand dunes. It talks of the human condition and the ephemeral
nature of human existence. It hints at current wars, previous wars,
and of battles yet to come. It talks of the cosmic evil that infects
mans psyche and leads him in droves to his ultimate destruction.
This song should definitely appeal to Indie rock music fans
everywhere. Though this has mainstream appeal this song is
unusual with its middle east rhythms and tones merged with
western rock and pop music.
Influences::
This is a song that has touches of the music of Robert Plant,
The Cult, Led Zeppelin, Peter Gabriel and Eric Serra.

"All for the love of a fool" by Velvet Razor (C) 2013
All rights reserved.
Taken from the Velvet Razor Debut Album
"The day the Earth Rocked" Released in July 2004
About::This is a medieval acoustic rock rock piece with alternate tuning
guitars, mandolins, medieval style drumming and harmony vocals.
Complete with Zepplinesque overtones I wrote this song while
working in the USA for six months. It's strange that I should go
that far away to write a traditional English style Medieval Folk
song. Maybe there was a subliminal yearning for the country of my
birth. Something about the medieval, celtic and norse times
resonate with me stories by the camp fire, legends and verse
captured in song about great heroes, quests, fair lady, dark
evil enemies dragons and other mythological creatures.
Influences::
This is a song that has touches of the music of Steeleye Span,
REM, and Led Zeppelin.
Here is the sample (1-minute) MP3 of "All for the love of a fool".
