Sonny Vincent - The End Of Light

  


  A whirlwind of soulful punk with a badass vibe for you today from the legendary Sonny Vincent.

  Born in New York City, Sonny formed Testors in 1975 and the band were a regular fixture on the CBGB and Max's Kansas City scenes. They were one of the US' most incendiary acts during the late 70's. Since they split, Sonny's just carried on releasing top notch punk and roll music. 



  The 17th September will see the release of a new album titled Snake Pit Therapy and he's enlisted an impressive cast of musicians to support him : 

Paul Blaccard- Corpse Grinders - Drums (Corpse Grinders were a NYC 70s band with Arthur Kane from The New York Dolls), 
Jimmy Recca- Stooges- Bass,
João Pedro Ventura- Dawnrider- Drums,
Alex Schwers-Slime- Drums ( Alex is from a primo German Punk band 'Slime '), 
Bobby Bretton- Drums,
Jamie Garner- Leatherwoods- Bass and Guitar,
Tim Shapland- Bass and Guitar, 
Paulo Viera- Guitar solo,
Jack De Angelo- Bass  Jack is a CBGB, Max's alumni

  The album will feature "15 tracks of electrifying shock-treatment, with catchy, primal screams and searing melody" and is available to pre order on vinyl now from Finland's Svart Records  https://svartrecords.com/product/sonny-vincent-snake-pit-therapy-album/

  A teaser single has just been released, it's a timeless sounding modern day classic and it's titled The End Of Light...
