The tags only partially capture the style of this Spanish band from Malaga, as they seem to incorporate all the styles of the '90s into one song. Interestingly, this song was released in January 2025, but only just appeared in my Bandcamp algorithm. Vic de Wee's vocals have a very unique style, one that doesn't pander to any of the iconic '90s voices. Behind it, four guys are really pumping up the pace, relentlessly pushing this bastard of a song forward. You can dance to it, pogo, or even bang...

Sit in the car, choose Bonetower on your playlist, press Play and Repeat and make a nice day cruising. And I swear to you, that goes on both the blocked German motorways as well as in Spanish deserts and steppes. Yes, I've already tried it. This music is actually created in the head with this music. You automatically carry a dusty Ray Ban sunglasses, you get an enormous thirst for the cold bearing beer and at the next petrol station you will fill tens of gallons into your tank just to not end...

As you can tell from the tags, the Lyon-based band is all about power, fun, and rock 'n' roll, combined with drinks, BBQs, and parties. The title track of the new album pushes relentlessly forward with a powerful production and a brilliant balance between grooving and rock, making you want to hear the full album. Their previous album, "Monster Truck," is a staple on our playlists, whether it's Stoner, Best of, or Road Trips, because the band knows how to roll down everything in their path with...

If you have longing for old Foo Fighters or the first two Queens of the Stone Age records again and does not want to hear them again, then I recommend this Swiss duo that has kept the writing on your band camp camp page almost as black as its background and its text "adios". Musically, this is nothing new, the bike is not reinvented, but it is properly rocked. The whole song runs a slightly nope, wailing undertone, which is in contrast to the text and music. And with so much incompatible...

Just check the tags below and you see this EP was made for having fun, at least with a can of beer in one and a cigarette in the other hand; relaxed heaviness as its best, forward rocking songs, 3-4 minutes long, what more to need? Okay, a bit more punchy drums behind the wall of fuzz, just to get some orientation through all this stirred up dust on this 15 minutes ride through Saskatchewan´s highway. Yes, it´s a kind of simple music, it´s just rock - on the second track "Even Through" with...

Howling Giant from Nashville, Tennessee, presents a somewhat different kind of music here. There are catchy vocal lines over pure heavy metal guitars, without fuzz and without them being tuned three to five semitones lower; there are dynamic tempo changes and various moods within one song. Wow, and then this complex song is also catchy. US metal bands managed something like this in the 80s, be it Savatage, Culprit, or Heir Apparent, and since then, things have been pretty quiet in this...

Until this concert, we thought we knew all the venues near our beloved Backstage in Munich. The fact that behind the actual Backstage lies the Arena Süd, the size of a Bavarian beer tent with a capacity of around 3,000 spectators, was new to us. The arena is also equipped with a 10,000-watt PA and a similarly large and flexible lighting system. The perfect conditions for a great concert. The Innsbruck band "Mother's Cake" provided support, gleaning their stylistic range and diversity from the...

The Free and Easy-Festival started. That means: almost 3 weeks of free concerts, 20 minutes away from home. Yes.

The 45-minute length alone made me wonder whether I should even listen to this song. Hey, I said to myself, you've already listened to Dopesmoker several times, just let yourself be taken on this trip through "Peace of Chaos." It's actually several songs played one after the other without a break; there's doom, stoner, psychedelic, basically everything you'd expect to play in a live jam. But that also requires a good understanding within the band to play something like that in one go. For me,...

The next surprise from Italy: not only are the two biggest and best labels, Go Down Records and Heavy Psych Sounds Records, based in Italy, but interesting new records are released on Bandcamp almost daily. Ride Over Mars hailing from Rome and manages to release this killer record without any filler. I love songs with short, crisp timing; the songs start after 15 seconds, then get straight to the point and rock so hard you can let your hair blow. In short: machine guns in action.
