 | | Description: | They don't make them like this too often anymore. No. 6 Dance is American rock & roll from the heartland with Five Horse Johnson hopping a freight train and riding the rails from rootsy blues to acid rock to '70s guitar-band heaviness. The album takes Led Zeppelin's brand of psychedelic stoner tunes and puts them in a stars-and-stripes T-shirt. "Mississippi King" is a catchy jam that would have suited Skynyrd just fine. "Spillin' Fire" takes the old school harmonica blues and rocks out with them, and "It Ain't Easy" makes for a sweet, Southern, sun-drenched cover. "Gods of Demolition," the title that best befits Five Horse Johnson, showcases Brad Coffin's demon guitar and Eric Oblander's desert rocking, Kyuss-esque vocals. But the best song on the disc has got to be "Shine Around," a groovy, circular, Black Crowes-style jam with a singalong chorus - a tune worthy of the smokiest middle-American teen bedrooms circa 1973.Recorded at Rustbelt Studios, Royal Oak, MI, during the fall months of 2000.
Mastered at Solid Sound, Ann Arbor, MI.

Earliest release date April 2002"No.6 Dance" on CD is a hard-hitting blast of heavy rock and blues from Five Horse Johnson, a band renowned for its thick riffs, gritty groove and soulful swagger. On this album, the group digs deep into swampy, fuzz-laden guitar tones, driving rhythms and an earthy, blues-infused vocal style that feels both timeless and raw. The songs move confidently between mid-tempo stompers and more up-tempo, riff-based tracks, always anchored by an organic, live-band feel that will appeal to fans of classic rock, stoner rock and electric blues. Lyrically, "No.6 Dance" channels themes of struggle, attitude and road-worn experience, matching the muscular sound with an equally rugged narrative tone. The production keeps everything warm and punchy, letting the interplay of guitars, bass and drums shine without sounding over-polished, so the record captures the energy and sweat of a band in full command of its groove.
