"Maltross is an instrumental stoner metal trio from Peoria, IL. Mixing elements of ambiance as well as a strong punk influence, Maltross creates an atmosphere of crushing sound that emulates the groove of the early 1970’s. Following a strict DIY ethic, Maltross has self-released a demo on cd-r and an ep on cassette. Their most recent release is a split with Quad City, Illinois destroyers, Lord Green. Released on January 1st, 2010 by Rusty Axe Records. The split is limited to 100 green tapes and 300 white tapes. Maltross is currently working on a full length cd, to be released on Rusty Axe in July of 2010."
Review:
"The split begins with Lord Green pulverizing your very being with three morsels of their unique brand of Stoner Punk. The riffs are tasty and the punk is raunchy. The split continues with Maltross punching you in the face with a few grimey 70's influenced sludgy stoner rock gems.
Track Listing:
1. Higher Than God (Lord Green)
2. Dropping Out (Lord Green)
3. Hook, Line, and Sinker (Lord Green)

An odd split, but very interesting.
