Thrash band Godslave has released some rather o.k. albums and now decided to record an EP with Status Quo covers. I hoped that the band would play some faster thrash versions of the songs, but they didn’t. The songs are a bit heavier, but that’s about it. The simple 3-chord songs are still rather boring. Status Quo songs are all a bit the same and I never found them very exiting. With this versions of Godslave that hasn’t changed. I have no idea what the band wants to achieve with such a release. Only if you are a die-hard Quo fan, you perhaps like this EP. For fans of their regular music, I doubt if this is a welcome release. I prefer a new album with own music.

Status quo was an inspiration for NWOVHM and thousands of posterior rock bands. Lars Ulrich is a Quo and its drummer John Coughlan fan.
