Review: Colossus’ single “Strike Up The Band”-Release date November 22, 2022

Rock At Night Says: UK band Colossus has released another new single, ‘Strike Up The Band’, an ode to the intense energy shared between a performer and their audience. Heavily punk influenced, ‘Strike Up The Band’ features crunchy distorted riffs, a powerful bass line, and angsty, raucous vocals. At just over 02:30.0, and around 170 BPM, ‘Strike Up The Band’ is an absolute banger worthy of a solid head bang.
