Szabotage releases "Six-Pack"
Szabotage was born when long-time friends - located in Hawaii, Vancouver and Ottawa - came together online to have a crack at "recording a couple of songs" as a way to battle the lockdown demons created during the COVID pandemic.
While the creative process has always been therapeutic for all members of Szbotage, this experience introduced them to therapy at a new level. The chances taken in song structures, performances and production perhaps felt like they could be some of the last. This resulted in a sweet combination of desperation and the thrill of riding the edge that was somehow captured in the tracks. It blended perfectly and bred life into what is now the final product.
Inspired by multiple influences, including Black Sabbath, Faith No More, the Blizzard of Ozz, Anthrax, Tool, and Opeth (naming only a few), SZABOTAGE draws its roots from the masters and the giants of heavy. In a non-traditional manner, they add a healthy shot of creativity and their own flavour of musical mastery to bring forward a unique, brutal, tender, funny, and heartfelt debut offering, full of tasty ear candy and non-stop imagery.
