Thunder reveal video for new single ‘Black Water’

‘Black Water’
The new single – out now
Taken from the Top 10 album ‘Wonder Days’
Triumphant set at this year’s Download Festival
Supporting ZZ Top at Wembley Arena – June 24th

The sensational return of UK rock legends Thunder continues with the release of their new single ‘Black Water’, accompanied by a video that showcases the band at their very best, both live and in the studio.

Having stormed the UK charts in February with their Top 10 album ‘Wonder Days’, performed live on BBC Radio 2 and completed a headline tour of arenas around the country, the London five-piece have just delivered an exceptional set at this year’s Download Festival, widely regarded as one of the biggest highlights of the entire weekend, and now look forward to a support slot at Wembley Arena with the legendary ZZ Top.

‘Black Water’ is another shining example of Thunder at their best with vocalist Danny Bowes showing his bluesy and soulful side and guitarist Luke Morley’s sharp stabs and neat licks accompanying a solid and straight up rhythm section. It also sees Ben Matthews’ shift from guitar to piano.

Thunder are unstoppable as they continue to stake their claim as one of the UK’s biggest and most important rock bands.

About Louise Swift

I first went to a gig in 1981, Gillan at Leeds University. I've been a regular gig goer ever since. I haven't kept count of how many gigs I've been to over the intervening years, but it's a lot! My favourite bands are AC/DC then, in no particular order, Anti-Nowhere League, Slaughter and the Dogs, Towers of London and Dirt Box Disco. I tend to like Glam/Punk and rude offensive lyrics, not sure what that says about me but as Animal would say 'So What!' The question was recently put to me - did I write for any online publications? My reply - No, but I'd like to! Planetmosh was suggested and I found myself offering to review Aces High Festival. Easy peasy I thought! Well not quite, if a jobs worth doing it's worth doing well! I had sixteen bands to research. I found I actually enjoyed that and it kept me too busy to be making lunatic comments on Facebook! ;) Then I felt a bit inadequately qualified. I mean, who am I to comment on others, when my musical expertise extends to being able to play a mean Greensleeves on the recorder and a passable Annie's song on the flute! Haven't picked up either instrument for years! What I do have, however, is over 30 years of experience as a gig goer, so I can comment on what I like and what I don't! It's only my opinion and, if I don't like a band it doesn't mean they are bad, just not to my own liking. I admire anyone who has the guts to get up on that stage and have a go!
