“To the City” is a raw, stripped-down rock assault built on a killer groove, swinging bass lines, super vocals, and some of the most electrifying guitar work the band has released so far. The Wizards are clearly progressing with each release, refining their sonic identity and carving out a sound that is growing stronger, more confident, and unmistakably their own. At the center of the new single stands the explosive guitar work of Sam Mårtensson, whose performance is nothing short of a show-stealer. His tone, phrasing, and technical flair drive the song forward with a confidence and attitude that would make Zakk Wylde and Nuno Bettencourt sweat. But the impact of “To the City” goes far beyond the guitars: Leo Mårtensson’s charismatic and dynamic vocals, Alvin Hilmersson’s swinging and tight bass lines, and John Danielsson’s powerful, precision-driven drumming lock together to form the band’s most cohesive and mature sound to date. Together, they reveal a group rapidly evolving while preserving all the freshness and fire of a young act on the rise. |
