New Band To Burn One To: Human Nature




Holy shit this is heavy!

Playing a brand of feedback induced doom accompanied with cavalcades of noise rock explosions for good measure, is best presented in its purest and rawest form, scraping the layers off your eardrums with each scorching dragging riff. This is the bit where Human Nature are revealed, a four piece London band that have the potential to seriously fuck up your day.

Through their suffocatingly heavy fuzzed doom riffs to their choke-holding drumming, Human Nature have created a demo which many long-stays in the game wouldn’t find enough passion to nurture. The vocals are sparse throughout the self-titled home recorded EP, echoing in through the metal infused ‘Bound’, sandwiched between the instrumental stoner metal of ‘Interlude’ and the psychedelic tendencies of ‘VOID’, Human Nature are a band with seemingly endless ideas of where to take their music, it’s going to be exciting to hear what noise these guys spew out next. Grab a hold of their demo now as a free download from Bandcamp.

LP Review 'Chapter 1: A Long Time Coming' by Profane And The Sacred


While there's a lot to be said - in terms of Google search rankings at least - for naming your band a reversal of a Smashing Pumpkins song, 'The Sacred and the Profane' - it's equally pleasing, that all musical similarities end there.
London-based Profane And The Sacred are remorseless in their occupation of music's deep-south, whisky-swigging, stoner rock; from their unnerving passion, eight minute opener 'Bench' warps and mutates into something reminiscent of Phil Anselmo's finest moments crossed with lighter shades of 'Rooster' based Alice In Chains.

Both dissonant and rich, their sound blazes proudly at its bluesy core with guitarists Luke Alleeson and Rick Spooner masterful in their guitar playing craft.
The mid-paced riffage soon gives way to the precise and scabrous vocals of Luke Alleeson, offset by Robb Taylor on bass and the malicious missives of Kieran Smith on drums.

This is a great album that lands its blows track to track.
