Ride To Suicide

This was dropped in the C-Box a couple of hours ago. So thanks to the one who dropped it!

The Rockabones is a four piece band from Hannover, Germany. First Takes is the first demo by this band and it contains four tracks of high octane Riffrock with Stoner, Metal, Punk and Rock 'n' Roll influences.

These guys make quite a start with this demo. The sound is pretty good for a demo and the songs are really ass kicking. The vocals fit perfect with this straight forward Rock music. No further words are necessary here, go listen and... Enjoy!

In the summer of 2009 The Rockabones joined to realise their conception of rock music.

Informed by bands like AC/DC, Motörhead and Black Sabbath, they play Riffrock blended with Metal, Classic Rock, Punk and Stoner - loud, heavy & dirty!

The first Demo-EP 'First Takes' was finished in June 2011: 4 Tracks, 18 minutes - Straight Out Heavy Rock!

Unspeakable Acts Of Intoxication

Thanks to Jay from the band Otis Reaper for this submission!

From Jackson, Tennessee, USA comes Otis Reaper. This four piece band plays some incredible Sludge/Doom/Metal with Punk and even NWOBHM elements. It has resulted in this debut cassette. This cassette contains five tracks, which are truly awesome and heavy. The guitar riffs sound because of the NWOBHM element very authentic. The vocals that sounds like the screams of a maniac are really impressive. Combined with the heavy rhythms, it forms a outstanding and aggressive piece of music. Enjoy!

Hailing from the doomed wastelands of Tennessee, We play hard rock and punk tinged cro-magnon metal harkening back to the days of yore. Sludgy, neanderthal doom riffs collide with nwobhm tinged melodies, thrashing drums and guttural, blackened vocals w/lyrics about intergalactic time travel, misanthropy, and alcohol.

The Muse Of Señor Ray

Once there was this Swedish Stoner Rock band Ridge. This band made in 2001 an awesome album called A Countrydelic And Fuzzed Experience In A Columbian Supremo.
After Ridge has seize to exist, two guys continued in the band Matadors. This band plays a nice combination of Stoner Rock, Garage Rock , Punk, Country and even Tango! This made the sound of Matadors quite unique.
Matadors has released several albums and this one is The Muse Of Señor Ray from 2006. This album contains a lot of excellent songs like: Like A Matador Pt II, I Just Tell You What You Wanna Hear, Señor Ray, You Know The Octopus Wasn't Good and Rise Above Adversity.
All thanks and credits for this one go to Pascalito! Enjoy!

From the ashes of legendary Stoner Rock act Ridge - who recieved 4K/ 5 in Kerrang for their debut album, Matadors have become a monster reactivating the rock industry!

The band has existed since fall 2001, and when Andreas Bergström (vocals and Fender Telecaster Custom guitars) and Jonas Jönsson (drums, percussion, keys) accomplished with the bass player/singer Johan Anderberg from world famous Deranged and Murder Corporation, the band was completed.

Due to the rectification that exist in modern rock today Matadors are trying to break new barriers with a blend of dirty-tango twisted with some ol´country-twang in their robot´ roll! With the same attitude as bands/persons like Queens Of The Stone Age and Johnny Cash- that everything is possible, are Matadors now trying to bring the rock a new hot dynamic blend.

Matadors has a reputation as a hard-rockin´, intense and diverse live act. They have played with bands like Brant Bjork, Bigelf, Hellfueled, The Chuck Norris Experiment and have recieved great reviews for their shows.

Motosluts From Hell

Thanks to Bojan for suggesting this great album!
As many of you know, is beside Stoner Rock also Death Metal a big love to me. So I was very glad with this suggestion.
Hellcrawler is a Death 'n' Roll band from Slovenia. These guys has just released their debut album on Hollow Earth records. This album called Wastelands is an awesome release. It is fast, it is brutal and it is heavy! Hellcrawler is for sure a promising band in this genre. Enjoy!

Dwelling among the debris of the whore capital of Western Slovenia, Hellcrawler are a bunch of cynical wasteland denizens who found unsavory panacea in the symbiosis of punk violence, stoner rock atmosphere and heavy riffage. Their soundtrack to the demise of humankind is a motorized assault of old school death metal and d-beat which reflects their major source of inspiration, the decaying aesthetic of post apocalyptic and spaghetti western cinematography. Beginning in 2010, the outfit saw their first release, Wastelands, in 2011 on Hollow Earth Records.

Straight From The Gutter

Do you remember the band 180 Proof that I've posted earlier before here? These Aussie dirty rockers are back with a new EP. This EP called The Gutter Sessions Part 1 – The Filth and Freedom Overture is filled again with Sleazy Hard Rock 'n' Roll. 180 Proof offers you with this new EP three new tracks and one song that already did appear on their promo EP. The Gutter Sessions: Part 1 – The Filth and Freedom Overture is another proof of the kick-ass filthiness that is performed by 180 Proof. Enjoy!

The Most Dangerous Animal Is Me

Scissorfight is a band from White Mountains, New Hampshire, USA. This band plays a blend of Stoner Rock, Punk and Metal. It seems that these guys present themselves as aggressive maniacs who will put up a fight without a warning and without any reason. Mantrapping For Sport And Profit is their fourth album and it is my favorite one. This album contains some songs that are full of aggression. This is mainly due Ironlung's awesome vocals. He sings really mean and vicious. The music fits seamlessly with these vocals. Great songs are: New Hampshire's All Right If You Like Fighting, The Most Dangerous Animal is Me, Go Cave and the absolute highlight Blizzards, Buzzards And Bastards. Enjoy!

The forth full-length album from crusty punks Scissorfight shows the band tightening their sound into a impressive stoner metal force to be reckoned with. The excellent production (by Andrew Schneider and Craig Riggs, along with the band) shapes the thick guitars into brutal chunks of shrapnel, cutting through the songs with a frightening fury. Ironlung's vocals also improve on this album, falling somewhere between Gwar's Oderus Urungus and Clutch's Neil Fallon. It is his charismatic growl that gives this album the strong personality it needs. Although their lyrics are still pretty average, the delivery makes up for it in spades. The album is a tad overlong, mostly due to the amount of time the band is willing to spend on one riff. But most of the songs are pretty short and harmless, and the band has a good sense of track placement that keeps things interesting. The average listener may not be impressed, but fans of stoner metal may want to give this a listen.

Lord Green.

This very nice demo was sent to me by someone of Fan The Flames Records (A label that is specialized in cassettes and vinyl).
When you hear the name Lord Green, then you can assume that you can expect some cannabis driven music. And when you listen to the first track, then you think you're right about that assumption. Because these tunes reminds of Bongzilla and Church Of Misery. But then starts track two... A portion of unadulterated Hardcore Punk is there right in your face. Lord Green plays some great tunes with an aggressive attitude. Fast and loud is the motto here! That fury continues till track seven. The song Dropping Out is more like the first track. A bit slower and some more stoned. The last track is again the Hardcore Punk madness! Lord Green from Davenport, U.S.A. has made an nice and entertaining demo. Enjoy!

Duengo

This rare piece of vinyl contains a strange mix of Hardcore, Noise, Punk, Metal, and Grunge. I guess this album is the first recording from Guy of Orange Sunshine. This band was called Moengo Tapoe and it was with the same members as Panty Boy. Moego Tapoe was more an experimental band. The album Duengo sounds rather primitive. The music is pretty minimalistic and raw. Almost the half of the songs are instrumental. And even the tracks with vocals don't have much lyrics! I rediscovered Duendo recently in my collection and I enjoy it again! Enjoy it too!

Ridin' The Tiger

Gluecifer is a Norwegian Rock 'n' Roll band. I've seen this band playing as support act for The Hellacopters back in 1998. And that was quite impressive!
Ridin' The Tiger is their debut album from 1997. This album is influenced by bands like Motorhead, Black Sabbath, The Rolling Stones, MC5, The Stooges and so on. There are also similarities with another Norwegian band called Turbonegro. It is not only Rock 'n' Roll that Gluecifer plays, but also a perfect combination of Garage Rock, Hard Rock and Punk. Great songs are: Leather Chair, Rock 'n' Roll Asshole, Bounced Checks, Evil Matcher, Rockthrone and Burnin' White. Enjoy!

Formed hot on the heels of the Norwegian trendsetters Turbonegro, and pre-empting the Scandinavian garage rock revival by quite a few years, Oslo-based quintet Gluecifer made their full-length debut with 1997's surprisingly memorable Ridin' the Tiger. And, although they were clearly steeped in the same, post-glam, pure rock urges of their denim-clad, N.A.M.B.L.A.-loving heroes, there was also something decidedly Motörhead-ish about Gluecifer's brand of speed-addled psychosis (a feature also espoused by labelmates like the Hellacopters and the Backyard Babies, let it be said). The proof is in the pudding, as they say, and the pudding here contains a steady recipe of pedal-to-the-metal racers ("Leather Chair," "Evil Matcher," the self-evident "Burnin' White"), only interrupted by nearly as teetotal laughers like "Rock'n'Roll Asshole" and the wonderfully dangerous "Rockthrone." In fact, the members of Gluecifer were still so hopelessly addicted to that rush at this stage in their career, that they only find time to stop maniacally pogo-ing around the room on two or three occasions; and it's fair to say they sounded rather more ill at ease than self assured on the purposefully slick "Bounced Checks," the intensely groove-based "Titanium Sunset," and the amusingly warped "Obi Damned Kenobi." Still, for a debut album Ridin' the Tiger was a more than capable and even promising first step on Gluecifer's lengthy run.

And Now... Something Completely Different

This is something for people who are familiar with the dutch language!
De Raggende Manne were a band that plays some strange music. It is a mix-up of several genres like Metal, Punk, Jazz and Noise. But the music is not really a matter here. It's all about the lyrics. For that you have to comprehend the dutch language. I'm a big fan of Bob Fosko and I always liked De Raggende Manne, although I never seen them perform on stage and that's a pity. This is a compilation I have made. I added also two songs of Bob Fosko's later band called De Gorelev. I think many of you don't like this post, but I had the urge to do this! Enjoy!

"De Raggende Manne" was a sound that originated in 1988 and raged on until 1999. Typically they were refreshingly raw energy, their lyrics telling - critically and with humor - and the roar into the microphone of lead singer Bob Fosko. All this accompanied by much noise guitar and drum violence ...

Radio Garage

This energetic beauty was shared with me by the band Radio Garage!
Radio Garage is a band from Lima, Peru. This band plays a combination of Rock 'n' Roll, Punk, Metal and Hard Rock. Their full-length debut album kicks ass! Radio Garage offers you eight great songs that will make your body move or at least it lets your head bang! You can also download their EP from 2005 on their Blogspot. Enjoy!

Garage Radio was formed in 2005 by Acosta and Barandiaran, who after going through various experiences in hardcore and punk bands, they decided to combine forces with old friends, Alfonso Chacon on drums (Kronocidio, Berserker, Ching Dynasty) and Coco Maple guitar (Kronocidio, Concrete) and began playing in local band circuit, they release a 4 song EP via Deskicia discs that get good reviews, then after exhausting tour concerts bars and holes appear in the compilation of web rockperu . org with two new songs after this, and many events, the band goes into a brief recess, which Alfonso and Coco out of the band to make way for the next stage with Kaminoisee (Macondo, God boredom, The Air ) and Oscar (Helldrunk) where the road takes you started recording the eponymous album on par with a string of gigs where the band earned the respect of the public and other bands, while the disc even finished editing, a new issue arises subsequent sessions to the compilation of Berraco Records label, the song "xdrmmr / a being without a name" is part of the horizon where he leads the group not to forget the raw and wild rock that is his trademark.

Integrity Technology And Service

The first time I encountered Gas Huffer was on a split single with Mudhoney. Gas Huffer is a foursome from the state of Washington, U.S.A. This band plays a nice combination of Garage, Punk and Rock-a-Billy. Gas Huffer somehow reminds me of The Cramps. Integrity Technology And Service is their second album and it contains thirteen energetic tracks. Gas Huffer played their last show in 2006. Enjoy!

Gas Huffer don't change one darn thing on its second album -- and that's perfectly fine. In fact, it's great! Integrity, Technology & Service is again produced by Jack Endino, the emphasis once more on crazy, entertaining, classic, punky raunch and roll moving at 200 mph. One of the band's all time great songs is here, "Do the Brutus." Their own version of a hot new dance trend starts with a brisk, killer bassline from Don Blackstone and then makes it from there -- as Wright chants, "throw back your head like you're gonna sneeze!/Do the Brutus, it's quite a hootus!" It looks like Wright himself is pulling off that move on the inside photo, for that matter. As on other releases, many song titles convey the atmosphere here better than other words could: "Overworked Folk Hero Guy," "Remove the Shoe," "Sandfleas," "Where Wolfmen Lurk." Wright, as ever, is a perfect frontman for the whole shebang, with plenty of the same immediate rough charisma as his fellow appreciator of hot grooves and sideburns, John Reis of Rocket From the Crypt. Price smokes down all around him with both his economic solos and instantly memorable riffs, while Blackstone and Newton's rhythm section burns rubber several times over. Among the many pure delights are "The Piano Movers," a wry tale of working grunts and a day of disasters on the job, and "Bomb Squad," a similar tale of a slightly more dangerous line of employment with a wonderful "hit the deck, she's going to blow!" backing shout. The "I.T.S. Credo" sums up the appeal of the whole album, as Wright sings on top of another fast-paced garage jump-up, "it's the credo we abide by every single day." Major points as well for the gas station-inspired uniforms on the back cover, years before that became an overdone trend used by unappealing trendhoppers.

More Chilean Heaviness

Thanks again to Pepeph for sharing this stuff!
Mamba is a Chilean bass and drum duo and they play extreme heavy! Their music is a crossover of Metal, Punk, Doom, Noise, Sludge, Rock, Jazz, Experimental, Retrogore and Cine B.

One of the members is Pepeph, also the guitar player of the Stoner Rock band Humberstone. With Mamba Pepeph plays bass and does the vomiting(!). The album Retrogore sounds rude and heavy with some atmospheric parts! Some of these atmospheric parts does remind me of the movie soundtrack from Apocalypse Now. Retrogore is not an everyday album, but it is for sure worth a listen! I am curious what you think about Retrogore, so be kind and leave a comment! Enjoy and support Mamba!
