Sigiriya is the new band from the ashes of Iron Monkey & Acrimony. They've played on the last year's Amplifier Worship and Dawn of Doom. very promising and atmospheric Stoner/Doom

Sigiriya Bio:

Beneath the soil of a Welsh valley a heavy metal life-force regains strength: rising from the ashes of stoner doom merchants Acrimony, Sigiriya is born.

Eight years after the demise of Acrimony, guitarist Stu O’Hara, bassist Mead, drummer Darren Ivey and vocalist Dorian Walters have reconvened. Not wanting the limitations of reforming a project long dead to them, Sigiriya brings a fresh take on their trademark monolithic heavy groove. While Acrimony hailed from the temples of deepest space, Sigiriya come from the earthy depths, bringing hefty, tremor-inducing sonics that pay homage to the riff.

Time served in the likes of Iron Monkey, Helvis, Dukes Of Nothing, Black Eye Riot, The Nine and Yeti have only added to their thick output, giving the foursome a more dynamic, meaner, leaner, earthier approach, which has developed an intense dirty sound with elements of boogie, classic rock and even crust. Taking their name from the mystic ‘throat of the lion’ rock in Sri Lanka, their rumble has been moving the Black Mountains of their homeland and will soon be moving the tectonic plates of the earth. To borrow a phrase from their former outfit: ‘Bong On, Live Long…’

here's one song called "Death trip to Eryri" from the upcoming album "Return to Earth"
(thx to Darren)

New Sardonis Album will see the light in the end of the year. Some new themes can be heared/viewed on their facebook. Jelle's label electric-earth.be seems to be passive through the year...we all need a rest & concentration for the main things.



Australian Whitehorse rocks on Blinddate. Don't miss 'em. They're noisy.
and the new CD "PROGRESSION " is also coming too soon. Mastered by J.Plotkin.

that's mostly important things up to date that I can keep in my skull.

Bored to doom

Check these Bored to doom Finland's newcoming band.

Our music is a combination of stoner rock, doom metal and grunge, and therefore we define our music as "Dungeon".

After playing several gigs at clubs and a few small underground festivals, Gniyrg Gnaarg entered the studio in November 2010 to record their first demo. "From Mother Sun", recorded in November 2010 at the MD-studio in Helsinki, consists of four songs and clocks in at just over 40 minutes. The track list is:
1. Awaiting the Sunlight (10:20)
2. Enter the Dungeon (10:02)
3. Earth Fire (10:56)
4. Big Bang (9:14)

The music of Gniyrg Gnaarg has been heavily influenced by the likes of Black Sabbath (esp. Master of Reality), Kuyss, Electric Wizard, early Nirvana, Alice in Chains, Fu Manchu, Joy Division, My Dying Bride and several 60/70s hard rock/psychedelic bands.

Bootlegger's Creed, Vol. 8 - The Machine


The Machine is a traditional heavy rock powertrio. With two releases available, Shadow of the Machine (CD, 2007) and Solar Corona (CD+2LP, 2009), the band is gaining (inter)national attention with their mixture of stonerrock riffing, retro psych and some occasional acid blues jams. The subsequent effort entitled "Drie" was released in December 2010 at Elektrohasch Records on both CD and 2LP. The new material lets The Machine explore and expand its territories while staying true to their psychedelic stonerrock sound...

All verges of wonderful

ЕNОСН was formed in Asheville, North Carolina, USA in the spring of 2008. Comprised of current or former members of Descolada, Serpents, Trapper Keeper, Birds On The Ground, The Judas Horse, Subproject 54, and Reach For The Stars. A few line up changes solidified into the current trio of (from left to right): Neal Wilson (bass), Charles Howes (drums), and Dave Lynch (guitar, vocals). Fans of early 70's rock, doom and drones of varying degrees of distortion and pitch, delay drenched guitar solos, their goal is to write songs that can be both tight and heavy and also descend into more improvised psychedelic rock territory.(R.A.I.G.)

Another volley of Aurora!


El Hijo de la Aurora from Peru are one of the more interesting bands in the scene at the moment because of their range of influences which is everything from Zeppelin, Sabbath, Floyd to Electric Wizard and Yob। Extremely psychedelic with a obsession in the occult but with a sound that is pure authentic, trippy retro psyche rock mixed with doom. Their album "Lemuria" is a total trip of a album with everything thrown into the psychedelic melting pot including a theremin and a moog synths. Here my partner in doom, Aleks tries to get a handle on what its all about with a interview with drummer Joaquín Cuadra.
