Scions of pioneering music-makers rarely outdo their parents – Ziggy Marley, Natalie Cole, Inhaler’s Elijah Hewson – but Trevor Church might have his old man beat. Alongside Ronnie Montrose, Sammy Hagar, (uncle) Denny Carmassi, and Bill “The Electric” Church, Seventies rockers Montrose set the template for Van Halen: superstar guitarist, producer Ted Templeman, Warner Bros. Records. Trevor’s Cali valley quartet Haunt rides galloping NWOBHM (New Wave of British Heavy Metal) on March’s Dreamers, which joins 18 releases since 2018: singles, EPs, splits, full-lengths. Covering Real Life’s “Send Me an Angel,” its nervy metallurgy opens the accompanying tour in Austin with decade-plus Louisville, Ky., occultists Savage Master, led by dark mistress Stacey Savage. – Raoul Hernandez
