LORD BISHOP ROCKS - Tear Down The Empire (Vinyl) (LP)

First there was Howlin' Wolf, then Jimi Hendrix, now the world has Lord
Bishop!" - and with "Tear Down The Empire" he presents his best work to
date. For the production, Lord Bishop Rocks has brought two heavyweight
electric guitar experts on board: Together with the Godfather of Grunge
Jack Endino (Nirvana, Soundgarden and others) and the German producer
insider tip Andy Schmidt (Disillusion, among others), an album has been

created that translates the blues, punk and hard rock spirit of the American-
German band into a timeless, raw and energetic sound. in front of which

frontman Lord Bishop's sparkling charisma comes into its own better than
ever before. In nearly three decades of thousands of performances around
the globe, Lord Bishop Rocks has become an institution. In the veins of the
2 meter giant from the Bronx flows pure rock'n'roll. Just like his
appearance, Lord Bishop's appearance on stage is big, powerful,
inimitable, determined and simply unforgettable. "Wow, it was like watching
Jimi Hendrix on steroids. Great and powerful live show and a one of kind
performer" (Lemmy Kilmister / Mot rhead); "Blues is his soul, and I heard
the ghosts of Howlin Wolf when he sang. Lord Bishop is an authentic bloke"
(Eric Burdon / The Animals);" If James Brown and Jimi Hendrix had a love
child, he would be Lord Bishop. Truly outstanding, great songs, cool guitar
and funky riffs. It was a pleasure to have him support my tour" (Ian Paice /
drummer of Deep Purple). Lord Bishop began his career with a move to
wild post-reunification East Germany. Straight ahead from his American
homeland into the unknown, biting through against all adverse
circumstances was literally in his cradle anyway. It was in Dresden that he
began his musical mission to carry handmade rock around the world and
into the next millennium.
