“Resistance,” with it’s “six feet underground” refrain and mad-as-hell riffery is as certain to imprison your ear as the first time you ever heard “Paradise City.” Read the entire review here. And you should, it starts off with “F**k Axl Rose. Go ahead, read it here.
Tim Louie, The Aquarian October, 2010
“I’ve seen this band grow, and they truly are a force to be reckoned with…”
Starr Tucker, NY Waste Sept 2010
“…powerful songs that go the distance – if you like it heavy this one’s all you.”
Aaron Sagers, The Bellingham Herald Review of our Highline Ballroom show on 7/29/10
“Diablo Royale, a gritty heavy metal act with real musicianship, played loud but didn’t rely on volume. Without any gimmicks, they stole the night by channeling Soundgarden and Rage Against The Machine with a classic ’90s sound made modern that would play well to larger arenas.”
NEW REVIEW!
Ted Reyes of PopTimes Magazine has written the most in depth review of Greedy Dogs yet. Check it out here.
Ted Reyes, PopTimes Magazine July 2010
“The message of the songs in this EP is truly as important as the breath-taking music, unlike some hard-rock releases that only cater to the animal in people with the music and never the rational part in the lyrics.”
Eldritch Stuff, January 10, 2010
“This is not an album for the morning shower, or the commute, or break time on the job, or a steamy one-night stand — this is an album for all of those situations.”
GearsOfRock.com, January 8, 2010
“Containing a striking balance of timeless commercial appeal and balls to the wall attitude, Diablo Royale’s blazing twin guitar assault, uncompromising crunch and down and dirty hard rock swagger captures the grittiness of their hometown with a bevy of hooks ready to rock the masses.”
Sleazegrinder, Classic Rock Magazine, October 15, 2009
“Greedy Dogs is a slavering beast of an album, as aggro as Pantera, as slick and sleazy as their neighbours’ sex slaves, and as heavy as at least two tons of bricks.”
Shawn Donohue, Glide Magazine, September 02, 2009
“..they are continuing the hard rock tradition which in today’s music market is noticeably refreshing. If you are tired of wave after wave of hipster synth-pop and are jonesing for some balls out rock give Greedy Dogs a whirl.”
Revolver Magazine, March & April 2009
“…a sonic punch in the face.”
Domonic Rini, Co-Host Maximum Threshold Radio Show, October 2008
“Diablo Royale is like eye candy for a metal diabetic”
