The success of the record earned them coveted opening slots for giants like Judas Priest, AC/DC, and eventually, the entire final tour of Black Sabbath.

Boasting a bouncy, infectious rhythm, "Young Love" highlights the incredible chemistry between drummer Michael Miley and bassist Robin Everhart. The track captures the reckless, naive euphoria of youth, wrapped in a classic garage-rock aesthetic. 3. Pressure and Time
When Pressure & Time dropped in 2011, it was a critical darling. It earned Rival Sons a nomination for "Best New Band" at the Classic Rock Roll of Honour Awards and caught the attention of rock royalty. Soon after its release, legends like Black Sabbath, Led Zeppelin's Jimmy Page, and Deep Purple were publicly praising the band, leading to high-profile stadium tour support slots.
Let me know!
This "strike while the iron is hot" approach gave Pressure & Time its signature raw, visceral, and spontaneous edge. There was no room for over-thinking, over-dubbing, or sanitizing the tracks with Pro Tools wizardry. What you hear on the record is the sound of four men sweating it out in a room together.
