Royal Thunder Get Even With 'No Good' -- Song Premiere

Our friends at Brooklyn Vegan once described Atlanta psychedelic hard rock troupe Royal Thunder's music as ""Johnette Napolitano of Concrete Blonde fronting Black Sabbath" and they nailed it. CVI, the group's upcoming debut album, sounds like it could have been released on a label like Harvest Records sometime in the mid-'70s. There's enough Iommi-kissed guitar riffs on the album to keep the metalheads satisfied, but its the psych flourishes that makes CVI such an interesting listen.

Noisecreep is proud to bring you the exclusive premiere of "No Good," a track off of Royal Thunder's CVI album.

"The song was written very specifically, for someone in my life," Royal Thunder vocalist Mlny Parsonz tells Noisecreep. "'No Good' can also be considered an anthem song. Do you know anyone that "sucks you off," to your face, and then stabs you in the back? People that only wanna know ya, if you have something to offer them? If you do, crank it up, because this song is for the no good!"

Check out "No Good," along with Royal Thunder's tour schedule, below.
