“I’ll Cut You Down“ Uncle Acid & The Deadbeats | CME Full Band Fridays

Woodstock may have represented a pinnacle moment for the music of the 1960s; but, for some guitar-playing hippies, the “Summer of Love” was followed by a Fall of Doom, during which time music with an eerie sense of foreboding was borne out of the gloomy, ominous atmosphere—a feeling that bands like Black Sabbath expressed through their music, using heavily distorted guitars, extreme volume levels, sludgy tempos, minor key compositions, tri-tone scales, and a shift to darker visual and lyrical imagery—inspiring fans who’ve fallen for heavy music over more than 50 years, ever since! We’ve all gotten a little too much sun this summer season, already, here in Chicago—so, this Full Band Friday, the CME House Band plunged into the darkness of the CME video dungeon with a song by a band that carries on the legacy of Doom!
