New Band To Burn One To: DEEP SPACE DESTRUCTORS

Heavy Planet presents today's "New Band To Burn One To"...DEEP SPACE DESTRUCTORS!

Bio:

Deep Space Destructors was founded in January 2011 in Oulu, Finland, on band members’ mutual love for 60’s and 70’s blues, hard rock, prog and psychedelia. The band added influences from stoner and doom genres, resulting in their brand of progressive doomsday spacerock.

The first three songs were written, recorded, mixed and mastered by the band in fall of 2011. The band’s journey continues towards deeper space and sounds.

Jani Pitkänen – Bass & vocals
Markus Pitkänen – Drums & backing vocals
Petri Lassila – Guitars & backing vocals



Thoughts:

"As I listened to Oslo, Finland's Deep Space Destructors I couldn't help to just take a deep breath and chill out. The warm fuzzy guitar tone sets the mood for this transcendental trip through the cosmos. The music rockets you into another dimension by utilizing trippy effects, amazing grooves and a psychedelic hodgepodge of progressive dynamics. The band drifts in and out of 60's psychedelia and 70's space rock  while gravitating towards some pretty killer doom-laden riffage. Put on your goggles and prepare to launch into a wonderful galactic experience of space and sound."

Megaton Leviathan: 2009 EP

Megaton Leviathan... has to be enormous, gargantuan, even colossal. One simply does not entitle a musical project 'Megaton Leviathan' without having significant weight in content, aspirations, and well... being loud! Well, Andrew Costa and Chris Beug know a thing or two about 'delivering the goods', but these aren't your run of the mill doomy goods. Here on their 2009 EP, Megaton Leviathan haunt us with their shoe-gaze enriched psychedelic doom. The sonic resonance of these thirty five minutes is trance inducing, leaving us wondering, "Where am I?" and "How the hell did I get here?". Check out the final track 'Time Fades' below and if you dig, head over to bandcamp to lose yourself in this astral approach to doom metal.
