STONEBIRDS

stonebirds announcing new album….

ps. maybe i was too harsh for this, just wait to hear the full album.

MONARCH – never forever

how dark and black can drone doom get? this is the answer, there should be “explicit drones” sticker on the album cover.

PROFOUND LORE

WARRIOR POPE – anchorite

my dl speed was awful again so based on couple of streamed tracks: interestingly adventurous progressive ambient/drone metal. CAMP

finally had time to listen this more, description above is quite good, progressive instrumentals with heavier and ambient parts, you never know what comes next.

GRANT NATIONAL – double black

like mixture of melvins/newer metallica and i stopped listening metallica after …and justice for all, so if youre fan of new school metallica you might like this.

 

VOID CRUISER – wayfarer

laidback stoner space metal, arctic bastard child of kyuss and hawkwind,
groovy relaxing cruise thru the heavyness and void of the andromeda galaxy,
put your damn space helmet on and get ready to fly high again.

OAK ISLAND RECORDS

RESIN – breathing frequencies

rarely someone sends me albumful of stoner doom nowadays, at least this kinda progressive old schoolish with dirty production values, and dirty means good, again my 1st thought (tells more than 100 pics) was somewhere between slowed down hendrix jam and earth, so relaxing jams for relaxing yoga moments, singer sounds quite disturbing but its the name of the game, as you can see from the coverart.

CAMP

DEADSMOKE – mountain legacy

monolithic, crushing, heavy like a hangover banging your skull without mercy, better just quote the promo sheet: “Slow, hypnotic, dissonant cadences recall the eternal need for isolation and the atavistic fear of nothingness. Sub-frequencies corrode the one last trace of human cognition, apprehension and judgment. Your soul is already burned, smoke is what remains.”
