Eclectic Music Discoveries: Wall of Voodoo, Fabulous Thunderbirds, Laura Chavez, and more
ut still bearing another uniqueness within his writing delivery. The title track is a pure mid-tempo primal blues/rock opener, emphasized with swooping blues licks and pulsating blues progressions that would perfectly flaunt Wojick’s low, almost southern-style vocal prowess, upholstered with his intense guitar playing and fitting drum accompaniment. You can sense the raw blueprint of early post-modern blues legends seeping through the seams, as Wojick lets his roots speak for themselves.
“Free” — Rounding out our album selection is this heavy and dirty almost seven-minute excursion. The slow paced, chugging rhythm firmly brings back the prime early 70’s progressive blues rock that would have made bands like Cactus, Iron Butterfly or Mountain turn their collective heads and take notice. The structure of the song is simple yet effective, presenting a serious dedication to the blues rock progression. It contains a remarkably long extreme blues articulated and delivered in three main periods, which are separated by some serious heavy bluesy jamming. It’s a solid ending to a strong blues rock album.
In summation, The Hard Way by Bruce Wojick and The Struggle is a strong outing for the no-frills blues-based rocker, who showcases his mature proficiency in all related musical and artistic categories. The artist essentially wears his musical roots on his sleeves with an air of resolute confidence, revealing his timeline of experience in the rock and blues music industry clearly annotated throughout his musical career.
