Powertron by Bill Nelson
" 'Powertron' was recorded in 2016 but has languished in my archives, unreleased until now, some eight years later.
Its genesis came whilst recording tracks for 'The Jewel' album. Amongst these was a track titled 'Drive Shaft' which I considered too brash for The Jewel, but too good to abandon. I decided to create a suitable album to house 'Drive Shaft' and Powertron was the result. It's an album of left-field rock songs, mainly vocal but layered with loud and edgy guitars. It will appeal to those who enjoy the wilder side of my work."
