Cortez on The Ripple Effect blog

Boston riff rockers CORTEZ unleash new song “Faulty Authors” off ‘Sell The Future’ album, out soon on Ripple Music and Salt Of The Earth!

Boston riff rock purveyors CORTEZ take no prisoner with their brand new single taken from their hot metal’n’roll album ‘Sell The Future’, coming out October 23rd on Ripple Music and Salt Of The Earth Records. Unleash the power of “Faulty Authors” exclusively via Riff Relevant!

“As a whole, the music of Cortez gathers the peak phrasing from the essential promises that several heavy music genres offer, and fuses them in such hauntingly distinctive ways that you can’t simply coin it as catchy melodies or memorable riffs. The compositions of each individual song are their own passionate union of ruthlessly shattering rhythms and crossfire guitar work that enhance rather than compete, with the vocals draped across the top of it all to sway with almost heartbreaking emotional range.” enthuse Riff Relevant.

Get metal’n’roll with new song “Faulty Authors” HERE

With the precision of heavy metal, the soul of classic rock, and the unbridled attitude of a band who care less about your expectations than they do about writing kick-ass, drive-fast, dynamic, hugely-grooved, hugely melodic and expansive tunes, CORTEZ arrive at their third album with a well-earned sense of freedom in their approach. It isn’t about what style they play or the genre niche you want to fit them in — it’s about the crawling sleek of the title-track “Sell The Future”, the crash of drums in “Sharpen the Spear” and the urgency of songs like opener “No Escape” and “Look at You”. The album was recorded and engineered by Benny Grotto at Mad Oak Studio.
