Band Submission: Sun Voyager-Heavy Psych From Brooklyn, New York

Band Name: Sun Voyager
Genre: Heavy Psych
Location: Brooklyn
Brief Bio/Description: Described by the Obelisk as “Laid back atmosphere of heavy psychedelia and rolling low end groove,” Sun Voyager is a heavy psych rock group consisting of members Carlos Francisco, Stefan Mersch, Kyle Beach, and Steve Friedman. They released a pair of 3-song demos in 2013 (Cosmic Tides and Mecca), both of which received acclaim from a number of heavy music publications such as The Obelisk, Heavy Planet (you guys!), and The Soda Shop, before signing on with King Pizza Records in 2014.

Sun Voyager recorded eight tracks at Ghostload Sound in 2014 which ultimately became Grease Voyage (split with Brooklyn’s Greasy Hearts) and 2015’s Lazy Daze EP which features some heavier tracks such as “God Is Dead” and “Gypsy Hill,” along with mellower psych grooves like “Be Here Now.” Mersch and Kyle relocated to Brooklyn somewhere along the way and lead guitarist Steven Friedman moved to Alabama, but the trio of continues to write, record, and play tons of shows all over the Northeastern United States.

The voyage has just begun. A debut LP is on the way in 2016 along with a split 7” with labelmates The Mad Doctors.

Band Submission: Slush-Stoner, Garage, Doom, Proto-Metal From Brooklyn, New York

Band Name: Slush
Genre: Stoner, Garage, Doom, Proto-Metal
Location: Brooklyn
Brief Bio/Description: We're a Brooklyn, NY based band that just released our first full length, "American Demons" on cassette. It has stoned grooves, fuzzed out solos and face melting riffs aplenty.

Following their EP 6XTY and split with Doubting Thomas Cruise Control, Brooklyn band Slush are set to announce their next release, American Demons. The group's expanded sound ranges from raw cowpunk stomp to slow '70s death-cult groove - half heavy metal, half aluminum siding.

The album shares of a series of tall tales centering around the bloody origins and dismal present of the United States, each focusing on a different character or creature. First single "Suzerain" imagines Judge Holden of Cormac McCarthy's Blood Meridian in the backwaters of modern-day Missouri, ruling over a coterie of lapsed priests, methheads, trailerpark prostitutes and gutterpunk slime. "Bathysphere," the second single, depicts the fall of Atlantis at the hands of a vengeful amphibious automaton.

The album is available digitally and on silver cassette with a custom 16-panel booklet replete with lyrics, stories and a full-panel image corresponding to each song.

Song of the Day-Matte Black-"Dust of This Planet"

"Dust of This Planet" is taken off of the latest full-length release of the same name. I'm in a bit of a chilled mood today and for that reason I have chosen this exquisite piece of work. This song from this Brooklyn 3-piece is a despondent dirge of deep and somber melody, slow and brooding rhythm and a heaviness that crushes your psyche.

New Band To Burn One To: Eternal Black

While the name Eternal Black may conjure up notions of the heaviest funeral doom, corpse paint, and trudging demonic doom that only the die-hard doom fans can conquer, these doomsters worship heavily at the altar of Scott 'Wino' Weinrich in all his Spirit Caravan, The Obsessed, and Saint Vitus mastering glory. The Brooklyn, New York, three piece (consisting of Joe Wood on drums, Hal Miller on bass, and Ken Wohlrob on guitar and vocals) are paving their musical journey full of doom blues that is as enticing as it is menacing.

Their gloriously groovy/doomy/bluesy/fuzzy self-titled EP has just been released on their own record label, Obsidian Sky Records, and it will soon be garnering praise from all corners of the music world as the riffs are thick, the vocals bluesy, and all the while the music resonates around the base ground of doom, the murky kind that will knife you in the guts at night.

While we’re under no doubt that Eternal Black have the potential to create an outstandingly heavy doom blues record in the future, the fact is they’ve already created one with their first EP, and while it is a Wino influenced sound, the band are proud to wear their influences on their sleeve and show how they have come to be, and now it’s their sound that we get to indulge ourselves in too!

EP Review: 'Antique' by Lighteater

Lighteater are a post-rock ensemble out of Brooklyn, NY who dabble in the dichotomy of delicate intricacy and devastating brutality.  Antique, their debut EP, is a four song affair that weaves the graceful tapestries and crushing riffs created by guitarists Dominic Bartolini and Nate Derr with the steadfast precision of bassist Chris Kunitz and drummer Ryan Luby.  Give a listen to tracks like "10oz" or "Quiver" as the band transitions from meditative hypnosis to jarring cacophony instantaneously.  Vocals aren't even a consideration as Lighteater are content to let the music do their talking.  Listening to Antique is the aural equivalent of floating along in a calming sea, only to be pummeled by an unexpected tidal wave.  Realizing that may not be something you'd readily sign up to experience, in this case I'd suggest you wear your swim shorts and strap on a life vest, because this combination of grace and ferocity is a worthy endeavor.

Sunday Sludge: NO WAY - "Sing Praises"

The older I get, the less self-aware I become. It usually takes a not-so-casual nudge from my wife to coax me into tackling the garlic on my breath. I just may go through an entire day at work without realizing I've forgotten to glaze my 'pits with deodorant. Stray hairs poking from my shirt's collar, weird marks that may or may not be self-inflicted as I sleep, and some smudge on any of the day's articles of clothing all seem more and more likely as years pass. And I'm giving fewer fucks by the day.

But this stickiness... whew. The slick, slimy nature of the stink steaming from No Way's four-track Sing Praises is fully self-aware. This four-track EP is equal parts sludge-metal, noise-rock, NYC hardcore, and every blister in-between. Sweating through eighteen all-too-brief minutes, this Brooklyn quartet introduces an angst-riddled clinic on shifting blame and gnawing caked dirt. These guys know what they're doing.

Abrupt, jarring noise is thrown thick on the opening tandem of The Cutting and Shake The Meat. The former is jagged and sticky, leaning forward with stab after stab and revealing more layers than you'd expect. NO WAY shove our faces into hot mud, pushing as deep as they can until the track's initial bouncing rhythm returns with hanging flesh. Shake The Meat continues the bass-led, buoyant administration of piss. Jarring patches of blazing licks grapple with stop-start highlights as guitars burn and Chris Enriquez's drums absolutely fucking flatten. The near-hopeful tone at the midpoint creates a wholly deceptive moment of clarity, but Chuck Berrett's vocal gruff is gruff, dirty, and damn near sweaty-Southern. You uncomfortable yet?

War Dance is NO WAY's tapered, reserved juxtaposition to the terse noise, at least briefly. When Berrett awakens and hopes to face the sun, he simply can't. A long lament is violently interrupted and... well, they're slamming our faces again. Repeated punches, abscessed clamor, and the disc's slowest, sludgiest moments can't detract from the bemoaning of prophecies fulfilling themselves. The band open things up, but the track ultimately bookends with those pensive plucks.

Sing Praises saves its largest sound for the closing Pasture / Abuela, steadily fuzzed-out and providing no shortage of warnings as it plows. Every evolution unveils a hidden misdeed, and as the sound expands on itself, we're engulfed in swirls. Squeaking, squirming, and ultimately leveling everything the light touches, Pasture holds all of NO WAY's trademarks until life bluntly freezes. Abuela steadies the sound and you reach for Grandma's bony hand through the fog. Just as she's guiding us through the thorns, NO WAY smear us with shit, bag our heads, and scour us with their own recipe of fierce sludge.

Drawing from innumerable influences and stamping out their own brand of metal, NO WAY's net should drag wide and draw fans like flies. For all its filth and violence, Sing Praises somehow manages to maintain a resilient, resin-coated groove that washes down the sharp stones. That grease-ball bully on the playground is suddenly a jack of all trades, and he's got some cool shit for you. You know this won't end well, but... Goddamn, this is fun. "Whoa, wait a minute! Where the fuck are we going?!" Shhh...

LP Review "Against Nature" by Eidetic Seeing

Brooklyn's Eidetic Seeing recently released their third LP titled "Against Nature", an epic 5 song journey through heavy psych that's big on doom and fuzzed up grooves and interesting experimental explorations in freaked out acid rock. Their sound brings to my mind the likes of Neil Young and Crazy Horse, Hawkwind, Floor and Kyuss and which makes for a very interesting mix of styles.

For the most part there are few lyrics to be heard on this album with each track seeming to tell a story through transitions in the sounds played rather than with words which are only used when absolutely necessary to the story being told, I think. The second track "K2" is a great example of this with there being only a very short section with lyrics and the rest of the 11 minutes 8 seconds track being instrumental and the opening track "A Snake Whose Years Are Long" being completely devoid of lyrics altogether.

Eidetic Seeing are a band of contrasts that has them switch from breezy psychedelia to huge and crushing doom riffs to full on noise rock fits of rage all in the blink of an eye as can be heard on the track "Froleuse". It is a method that works very well and which kept me listening intently as I tried to guess what Eidatic Seeing would do next. The band may be one of contrasts but they are also brilliantly unpredictable which makes them all the more entertaining to hear.

There are hugely satisfying moments of crushing slabs of doom given generously throughout but the riffs are never dwelt upon for too long. Fourth track "Asphalt Blues" has Eidetic Seeing take their doom to some weird and unexplored psychedelic and acid drenched dimensions only for things to fall gently into barren and breezy psych rock. The psychedelia is explored further in the fifth and final track "White Flight" which opens with colorful electronic twinkles before evolving into Hawkwind-like acid freak outs and then to a crushing riff broken by screeching feedback which reminded me of Floor's work on their first album "Dove".

"Against Nature" is a fine piece of work from Eidetic Seeing and will be appreciated by doom fans and psychedelic rock fans alike. Get it now from their Bandcamp.

Sunday Sludge: Blackout - "We Are Here"

If you're gonna do it, do it. Some cosmic drug-addict once lamented "moderation is masturbation," and shouldn't we know? Sunday mornings leave little room for much other than coffee, questions, and broadband-speed internet tuggings. We simply don't have the motivation. We overdid it last night and we've missed more than a few phone calls from friends. Some asshole suggested we go to breakfast. I'll be lucky to make it to my back door.

When Brooklyn trio Blackout formed in 2011, excess became less an experience and more a lifestyle; a pre-requisite. A cold, sooty floor suits these bruisers just fine when it comes time to call it a night. Luckily, they'll first leave behind a slick trail of gargantuan stickiness, a thorny half-hour of trippy black riffs wrapped with swirling sludge. Their debut album We Are Here is slated for release on October 25th, leaving you four weeks to cruise curbside bins for empty cans.

Loaded with screeches, twitches, and six hits of heady fuzz, We Are Here moves between massive sludge rhythms, ashy stoner passages, and sparse pockets of simplified doom. Present throughout is a rubbery weirdness, a sporadic psychedelia that sways as much as it stomps. The sound is true and solid, evidenced by the band's approach. There's no over-thinking here; just three heavy-hitters, their seasoned sounds, and what is quite obviously a basement littered with cans and bottles.

Hymnal darkness links opener Indian down through Seven, veiling vocals through a coven's wooded rendezvous. From howls to warbles, Christian Gordy and Justin Sherrell envelop listeners and thicken their perceptions. Adding to the creep factor are echoed taunts and encircling cackles on tracks like Columbus and Smoker. Scan for black ice and grind your teeth as you wait for the hit to take. When it does, careful where you throw yourself. Smoker's incessant chug leads to a dazing bedspin, but don't pretend you didn't want this.

That sub-sickness you're feeling is likely Taryn Waldman's skinwork. Blame the shifted rhythms on her choppy, cavernous thumps. Amnesia is merely a collateral consequence, as the track faces west and burns like a good time gone wrong. Swelling, pulsating... the cracks are all filled, and catastrophic doom slams downward on the confident lumber of Anchored. Stoner fuzz and glazed frets serve as bonus material. It's all here and it's all good.

If it's too slow, you're too young. That cloud's been hanging in our basement since 1970, so don't show up racing out of Hot Topic with pimples and a hard on, calling your favorite band heavy. Blackout get it right, hammering jam after jam, pound after pound. The smoky swirls buzz with electric accusations and shock-therapy repressions. As you frantically peel off the webs, We Are Here expands and looks straight down. Blackout can explain it to you, but they can't understand it for you. Your skin's only gonna get thicker. Just don't freak out when it snags and breaks open on sharp branches.

Mighty High Needs You!

Mighty High needs your help.

Some of you may know this already but Mighty High's rehearsal room at the South Sound in Brooklyn was devastated by Hurricane Sandy. Basically everything the photo above is gone. Luckily, most of the guitars you see were in a different location but the drums, PA system, amplifiers, speaker cabinets, etc. were submerged in toxic salt water from the Gowanus Canal. Many items were either vintage or custom built and cannot be easily replaced. We are not covered by insurance and not eligible for relief from FEMA. The cost to replace/repair these items is staggering.

We have two shows scheduled in December in Brooklyn to try and raise some funds. Here's the info if you can attend, we'd love to see you. We'll have shirts, vinyl, CD's and posters for sale at both shows.

Saturday December 1 at the Grand Victory 10PM

Friday December 14 at Trash Bar 10PM

If you want to buy a copy of our new album Legalize Tre Bags or any of our previous releases, please visit our label Ripple Music. They have a lot of other great bands (Poobah, Mos Generator, Stone Axe, etc).

Sannhet: EP 

Slow ruin.... That is the memo on Brooklyn based experimentalists Sannhet's facebook page. I disagree. This trio's take on post-metal, noise, and black metal is much more abrupt in absolute desimation. In three short songs Sannhet convey grand emotion and depth. Check out their video for Moral below and look forward to the full length. And if you can't stand the anxiety, look for their tour through the Mid-West and Southern USA!

MIGHTY HIGH to Premiere Brand New Album on Blog Tour Release Party

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE:

It ain’t politically correct and it ain’t safe, but since when was rock and roll about being correct or safe?

Already the critics are raving about this blast of irreverent rock from Brooklyn’s finest regressive rock band. Ringmaster hailed Legalize Tre Bags as “a raucous feast of punk, weed, and middle finger attitude, most of all it is a deeply satisfying slab of rousing rock n roll.” The New York Music Daily swears that “if you like New York-centric weed jokes, you will love this album” and Jersey Beat raves that Legalize Tre Bags is “a gloriously loud blast of trashy’n’thrashy bluesy rock’n’roll .”

Now it’s time for you to find out what all the fuss is about.

Hot on the heels of Ripple Music’s international release of Legalize Tre Bags, Mighty High and Ripple Music offer you the opportunity to hear the whole album, and visit some great rock music sites to boot. Ripple Music has teamed with the finest leaders in heavy music journalism, The Soda Shop, Heavy Planet, Cosmic Lava, Grip of Delusion Radio, and The Ripple Effect, to bring you Ripple Music’s first ever Blog Tour Album Release Party.

Starting over at the Soda Shop on Tuesday, June 26th, you’ll be able to preview the first three songs on the forthcoming Legalize Tre Bags. Wednesday, the party moves over to Heavy Planet where three more songs will be debuted. Thursday, the gig is at Cosmic Lava for three more songs before the whole things winds up Friday at The Ripple Effect with the epic finale. Throughout the week, tune into Grip of Delusion Radio where Mighty High will be in frequent rotation. A smorgasbord of Mighty High madness.

Don’t miss the album that Heavy Metal Time Machine says stirs “together some classic rock riffs, punk rock energy and stoner rock madness to serve up some of the catchiest rock to come down the pike in some time.”

Zac's Double Dose: Eidetic Seeing / KozybunX

Eidetic Seeing: Drink The Sun

We haven't dabbled to much with Heavy Psychedelia here at the Double Dose, and upon stumbling onto Eidetic Seeing, now is as good a time as ever. Eidetic Seeing formed in 2009 in Brooklyn and recently released their debut album Drink The Sun. The songs are fuzzy and rely on Sean's [Forlenza] cosmic guitar tones. Danilo's [Randjic-Coleman] bass is always present and never over-shadowed, adding depth to the spacey climb out of this galaxy, while Paul's [Feitzinger] drums keep this journey in time. Paul also incorporates all necessary waves and frequencies expected during inter-galatic travel with his synthesizer work. Tracks from Drink The Sun are now streaming at bandcamp and soundcloud, check them out and enjoy the haze.

KozybunX: Practice Room Demo.N

Poland reliably delievers some of the best doom, sludge, and stoner metal in the world. This is no easy task, knowing the Europe in its entirety has bestowed us with just about every heavy music genre known and loved today. KozybunX are another one of Poland's finest, mastering the low frequencies category. If you're looking for some ground-breaking and progressive doom, you've come to the wrong band. Rather than reinvent doom, KozybunX pummel your brain-stem with simple, slow, heavy riffs and have replaced any sort of lyrics with vocal samples, which can be quite terrifying. Check out their epic Hex (Deep Sleep) below. A digital copy can be downloaded at bandcamp.

New Band To Burn One To (Evening Buzz): EGGNOG

EGGNOG is today's "NEW BAND TO BURN ONE TO"  Evening Buzz...

Bio:

Eggnogg is a heavy rock trio from Brooklyn, New York. Since their debut album in 2009, Eggnogg has masterfully blurred genre lines, transcending the redundant boundaries of modern rock music. Eggnogg’s effortless merging of melody, discord, psychedelic textures, and irresistible hooks defies expectation and refuses to be type casted.

The band’s unprecedented sound grows from the dynamic between its members. Drummer, Ryan Quinn’s thunderous rhythms and technical finesse are augmented by the bass and guitar work of principal songwriters, Justin Karol and Bill O’Sullivan. The two guitarists exhibit styles that are distinct, yet complementary, and their trading of guitar solos keeps the playing fresh and expansive. Atop monstrous riffs resound Bill O’Sullivan’s deep vocals, which vary from a bluesy croon, to a gut-wrenching belt. Together, Eggnogg crafts a sound that has been described as, “a mixture between Black Sabbath, Led Zeppelin, and Pink Floyd.”

Ever determined to push their music to new heights, Eggnogg continues to write new material. Planned for release in the fall of 2011 is a small four-song EP, and the band’s third full-length album will be out in early 2012.

"Simply put, Eggnog is brilliant! This band from Brooklyn, NY utilizes a multitude of tones and effects to create a psych-tinged ambience amongst heavy as all hell doom riffs. If you are in search of a spacey, fuzzed-out, infectious, bluesy...I could go on and on and on. Sometimes a band is so good I am at a loss for words. Here is a great review on Doommantia that truly captures the very essence of this remarkable band."

New Band To Burn One To (Evening Buzz): Marching Teeth

The Evening Buzz edition of "New Band To Burn One To" today features Marching Teeth.

Bio:

Marching Teeth was formed as a 3-piece metal/rock band that originated in 2006

and is based out of Brooklyn, NY.  Marching Teeth's style crosses over stoner, psychedelic, and classic metal. 

All members are originally from Louisville, KY. Each member played in various bands in the early metal/hardcore scene in Louisville, KY and helped with building it into one of the most distinct scenes in the country. 

In January the 3-piece turned into a 4-piece with the addition of another Louisvillian Dominic Cipolla on vocals. Dahm is the ex-lead singer of Dead Child (Touch & Go/Quarterstick Records). 

Marching Teeth will be releasing it's first full length album in the late summer and will be touring as well. The song Rosa Scabs and The Creeps Below has been released in the mean time. 

Marching Teeth from Brooklyn via Kentucky are a tough band to classify. The early stuff is a bit more hardcore punk with yelling vocals and the new stuff as evidenced by the song above is more subdued and has a mellow 60's style vocal with an awesome stoner rock groove. Whatever their sound is, I like it and you should too.

New Band To Burn One To-Lost Coves

The "New Band To Burn One To" today is Lost Coves. Lost Coves are a trippy psychedelic rock band from Brooklyn, NY. Upon first listen to the track "Dead Weight", I knew that listening to the rest of the EP would be an interesting trip. Consisting of only 2 band members: Dylan on Bass and Bill on Drums, the two manage to compel the listener with their strange rhythms and adventurous form of psychedelia. I personally cannot peg any one genre on these guys but their bio below pretty much sums it up. Enjoy the trip!

"Lost Coves stems from boredom and ambition colliding at monumental trajectories. And so we make music. We don't really write songs as much as build movements based on rhythm, feedback and melody. Think Melvins and Herbie Hancock on tour with Beast In The Field arguing over the influential importance of Black Sabbath and Led Zeppelin on heavy metal, singing along to the Deftones and Bjork with Portishead on deck, playing air drums to Helmet and Pantera, burning one to Kyuss and Clutch, and driving drunk blasting ZZ Top Tres Hombres."

What others are saying:

"It’s pretty safe to say that Lost Coves are not for traditionalists, as they don’t fall neatly into any genre grouping that I can think of. They’re a little bit of everything I like about the avant-garde side of rock n’ roll, and they’ve got an ability that never exceeds their grasp. In other words, they’re an ambitious lot that still realizes making good music is about writing songs with replay value, even if you are doing it in a way that could be defined as progressive or moderately inaccessible." -http://www.hellridemusic.com/

"It flows together like one long compostion, tracks on the cd serving more as mile markers as you travel down this lost highway, disoriented and unsure of what menace lurks around the next corner. The journey begins innocuously enough, with a serene, swimmy intro that could be something from Colour Haze, the calm soon being shattered by a jarring dissonant chord that announces the darkness within. What follows is 26 minutes of shadowy musical hallucinations, conjuring a mutated, psychopathic Radiohead mixed with a bit of Unsane(minus the bluesy aspect) and a heavier, less brittle version of Shellac. Introspective Indie rock moments morphing into heavy, monolithic, dissonant riffing, all the while with trippy delay feedback as a swirling, churning backdrop to the whole schizoid odyssey." -http://www.stonerrock.com/
