Vanderbuyst is a Dutch Hard Rock band formed in 2008 by guitarist Willem Verbuyst (ex-Powervice). As a power trio they advocate a mix of 70’s/80’s Hard Rock, Classic Rock and early NWoBHM. Inspired by bands like Rainbow, Van Halen, Thin Lizzy, UFO, Deep Purple and ZZtop, Vanderbuyst is not for the ones looking for the latest Nu-Metal and Gothic stuff. However, if you like your Hard Rock old school, Vanderbuyst is your band. In the last two years this 'Dutch Hard Rock Assault' has earned a very good live reputation. On stage, with riffs, solo’s, tight jeans, leather jackets and banging heads, Vanderbuyst has all you need to imagine yourself back in the 80’s again. The lead vocals and Guild-bass are Jochem Jonkman’s job, whose voice might remember one of Phil Lynott. Barry van Esbroek hits the drums including the inevitable Roto-toms and occasionally treats the audience to the not-done though nostalgic drum solo. While guitarist Willem Verbuyst is jumping around on stage like a madman, he keeps on riffing and soloing just the same. All in all, Vanderbuyst is a very energetic live band, even if they play two shows on one day, as they quite often do. Some say that Vanderbuyst is above all a live band. But with this record that opinion might change. Though Vanderbuyst is still a must see band this record can’t be ignored and will please the genuine Hard Rock and Heavy Metal maniac. For those into old school heavy rocking, get yourself a copy of this great album. So next time Vanderbuyst is around you can raise your fist and yell along with these true rockers.
