VICTORY - LOURDS LANE
Lourds Lane inadvertently wrote a new sports anthem when “Victory” scored some prime exposure. The track caught the ear of ESPN, and the sports conglomerate has licensed it. A thick, heavily distorted bassline leads “Victory,” while the remaining instruments are covered with a scratchy, industrial coat. Rousing hand claps and chants of “Get up now and fight” make the song a primal chant for domination, and it’s a catchy anthem that will fit any sports stadium. Lane adds to the kick-ass quotient by sawing off an electric violin solo that whines as nastily as a guitar. Whether it’s played in a concert or being used to cheer a team on the defense, “Victory” will get fists pumping and feet stomping. Billboard
