Re: Stoner/Doom I thought MBRecords generally did US releases for RARecords. Would much prefer a new release, but at least they could offer colored LPs. Unfortunately it just appears to be CDs. What's the point?
Re: Stoner/Doom I can see it being just for those who don't know who Uncle Acid is but know Metal Blade and may just buy it because of that? When I worked at a record shop (that sucked and only carried CDs) we had tons of customers like that. "Oh I never heard of these dudes, but they're on this lable, I'll try it out." I bet it has a big ass sticker "FOR FANS OF BLACK SABBATH/ RAINBOW/ ELECTRIC WIZARD" or some shit.
Re: Stoner/Doom Does obscure heavy 70s fit in this thread? Been hooked on Stray Dog lately, especially this tune. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AWO9yE6AyHU It's got a ZZ Top vibe to it, maybe cause they're a 3 piece heavy blues band from Texas. The double bass in the middle reminds me of Doctor Vine by the Big F. Speaking of heavy 70s though less obscure since they're part of the Deep Purple family tree....I never knew Greg Mishka sang for Warhorse. Not to be confused with the Doom band Warhorse from Mass. http://www.youtube.com/watch?&v=t0u3SARuIPI
Re: Stoner/Doom sunswitch http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dJly55dnO70&feature=player_embedded\ alittle strange watching a guy doing some heavy nodding with a tuba in his hands but this band has a really rad sound.
Re: Stoner/Doom Metal can use more low brass as far as I'm concerned! That was amazing, Brent - thanks for the link.
Re: Stoner/Doom OM played a sold out show last night in Philly with Daniel Higgs and I had to work. Grumble.
Re: Stoner/Doom Yeah I didn't know that they played Boston until Mr. Scott from Hobo's posted pics from the show. That hurt a bit. Haha.
Re: Stoner/Doom Advatic songs would have been great to hear live, depending on how much of if they played. I use it as preshow music at my theater.
Re: Stoner/Doom Just saw the newest High on Fire tour Lo-Pan Primate Goat Whore High on Fire What a fucking great show! Lo-Pan: amazing lead Kyuss style vocals, nice and heavy stoner riffs and a thundering Rickenbacker bass Primate: great old school hardcore grind mix. Kevin Sharp is a monster on the mic. They played a coupled black flag songs for good meassure. Goat Whore: powerful black thrash perfection. These guys are a live band for sure. High on Fire: first tour back from rehab and you could tell. This show made the 12th HOF show for me and was least animated and most sloppy I've seen Matt. They played 10,000 years the third song in. They should have blow up the building after that monster, first time I've ever heard that live, one of best tracks in the history of heavy music All in all amazing tour, I'm not sure how many dates are left of it, but if you can catch it do so. Also picked up the greatest beer coozie of all-time
Re: Stoner/Doom Stoner / Doom isn't usually my thing, but I'm addicted to Pinkish Black. Check out their bandcamp: http://pinkishblack.bandcamp.com/
Re: Stoner/Doom Hell III, eh? I will check that out. By the time I found out about them (from you!) II was already released and I was no longer available on vinyl. I liked I a bit more than II, but am definitely interested to hear III. Looks like I know what I'm searching for at work tomorrow! Thanks for the heads-up! And I listened to Pinkish Black at work today - definitely liked some of it. Will probably listen to it again tomorrow.
Re: Stoner/Doom holy smokes.. bell witch http://bellwitch.bandcamp.com/ two piece bass and drum but the bass is tuned to sound like a guitar.
Re: Stoner/Doom i was waiting for the vinyl release and almost missed the cassette. Hell III shot to the top of my year end list for sure. 11 copies left if anyone is interested and Hell II lps if still looking for it http://loweryourhead.bandcamp.com/
Re: Stoner/Doom ^^ha I was listening to HELLIII when you made that post. Grabbed the cassette/patch/poster bundle. good price for that. And I actually had no idea they had a bandcamp so now I can finally hear the song from the thou split. so major thanks for the link!
