The Christpunchers - Psalms for a New Dark Age

so i ran across these guys on stonerobixxx and after listening to their latest release, pslams for a new dark age, i was pretty impressed. this stuff is a little more spacey than the usual stuff i post but its pretty heavy and awesome. no vox per say other than some sound fx. but definitely some great tunage to hot box something to :) i'll include several links below including their site, their bandcamp as well as a mediafire link so you can snag this 2011 release from these guys. hope you all enjoy!

grab your shovels and dig it!

bandcamp site (more releases available on their bandcamp page. haven't listened to them myself so check them out at your own risk)

official site

holy shit batman! killer show!

hell yes i'm going to this shit! boy sets fire are a rare thing to see these days and they fucking rock the casba! backwoods payback will also kick dicks inside out and all else failed, come on its all else failed, thats face punchin music and i'm all out of bubble gum because it gets stuck to my shoe and i hate it!

Karma Twin

so i was just doing some digging and came up with these guys outta belfast. i've only been able to scratch up their reverbnation page thus far but from what i've heard i think they're pretty jammin and i'd love to have a demo or an ep or something from these guys for stand alone listening so i'm going to work on that. for now check them out!

Temple of Smoke - ...Against Human Race

so i ran across these guys on doomantia, or rather saw their was an interview with them and then sought them out, i didn't read the interview but you can if you want. i found some tunage by them on soundcloud if you wanna check that out the link is below. i think they're pretty groovis. a little different, they're like the stoner equivalent of rush. anyway, check them out.

Mountains of Blow - Connoisseur II

so these guys have come around before and i wasn't super into their release 'connoiseur', and i'm not sure why, i'm actually listening to it now after listening to the album above and its just less polished i guess, but not even that, these guys have gone in a way better psych direction and have really refined their groove-craft with this latest installment.

Fu Manchu - King of the Road

because i've been listening to this one and in search of solid since i saw them, and have almost been convinced that the two albums are as good as the single from infinite power, i'll throw up king of the road because it is some awesome jams. also i was playing some tony hawk pro skater 2 and evil eye is on that game, although it isn't on this album i figured that was maybe a relevant thing to say. either way its my blog so i dont care if its pertinent or not.

enjoy!

A little somethin i found on youtube

so i found this little snippet from the fu manchu show i went to the other night at the note in west chester pa. apparently someone was filming from the balcony. so here it is. its fu playing boogie van. you can actually see me behind the guy in the white long sleeve shirt like almost in front of brad davis' monitor. enjoy.

you can also make out my buddy the rewster as well. although he's a bit shorter than me and kinda fades outta frame but you can see him if you look hard enough and know who to look for. i have a bunch of shows that are comin up that i really wanna hit up so expect more fun times being posted. next up could very well be clutch and coc on new years in new york. rewster and i already decided that was happening so yea. should be a blast!

Thorun - Chorus of Giants EP

so this polish instrumental riffage wreching shop have put out another album. their first was pretty good and i recall listening to it earlier this year. they're a little heavier and slower than your usual stoner rock but not as slow and drony as your standard sludge. i'm digging their new album. you can listen to it at bandcamp and i'll include links to both of their albums below. i definitely thank they have matured and evolved a little since their record reprise was released last year. either way have fun with it and have a good one!

Backwoods Payback/Fu Manchu Show 11-16-11 Photos

Backwoods Payback - Momantha 2011

so i need to post the photos from the show last night but these guys where so kick ass live! i can't wait until the january 8th show to see them at mojo on main (east end) in newark de! this album isn't like brand new but it is from this year and does kick some serious ass, like i explained their live show does. so definitely check them out and you'll too enjoy the awesomeness. oh also i did get a photo with their bass player! who is in my opinion one of the best looking ladies in stoner rock! so definitely check this album and out and their other offerings, and definitely catch their live show! they're local for me so i get to see them more often than others but definitely support all the bands posted here!

enjoy!

Major Kong - Orogenesis

i figured i'd throw these guys up here because i'm diggin instrumental stuff today. it goes great as background sound. instrumental stoner/psych that is. these guys from poland have a nice heavy sound. they're sort of a side project involving members of the band fifty foot woman, which i'll post the link to their latest album below as well if ya want, but this 'side project' is apparently trying to gain some legs and throw together a full length. polish version of karma to burn? maybe?

1000Mods - Liquid Sleep/Blank Reality

wow, so yet another great recommendation from across the pond. i packaged the two albums offered by 1000Mods. these guys are yet another greek outfit that have crafted some serious masterpieces of stoner-riffic-ness. below i've included the link for the tunage as well as their myspace so if you need to drop them a line and tell them they rock or see when they're playing your town you can do so.

NightStalker - Superfreak 2009

see, the greek connection's paid off already! so this awesomeness comes direct from a recommendation by my new buddy Cris of Dope Flood. he says these guys are 'the biggest stoner band in greece' and i can see why they'd grab that title. because they're awesome. they throw some great riffage your way and lyrics almost reminiscent of say dave windorf of monster magnet, as well as some great driving guitars. so check them out. i've included an album link below as well as the band's site.

grab you're shovels and dig it!

band site (check out the videos page on their site, pretty cool)

and as always, help any of these dudes whenever and wherever you can! i promise you they'll appreciate it!

Been Obscene - Night O'Mine

so i ran across these guys on another blog that i follow. its not exactly the usual bone crushing, teeth jarring riffage that i post on here but they are pretty diesel indeed! Been Obscene hail from germany and are a four piece. they have their own unique sound, but i had to liken it some another band i'd have to say they almost have the sometimes 'delicate' touch of Nebula but with some groovis riffage. but dont be mistaken by the 'delicate' comment. these guys know how to throw some awesome driving guitars out their and will get your toes tapping for sure. check them out at the links below and of course with all the bands i post please support them if you can, any way you can.
