I know that there are quite a few 80's hard-rock bands that had some BOC influences, but I'm wondering whether there are any new(er) bands who attest to "borrowing" some of that vibe.
The Swedish band "Ghost" seems to be the one that comes-up in conversation as sounding like BOC. Don't know if anyone in that band has ever mentioned BOC as an influence, but you don't have to dig very deeply into their catalog to find songs that would work as BOC tunes (stuff like "I am the one", or "Monstrance Clock"). I guess the difference there is that BOC was a band that explored many themes, whereas Ghost seems more to be a single theme exploring a band.
Anyway, I wondered if there were any bands that Buck maybe thought were carrying a similar torch...?
