The roaring annoys me the most of the sludge and hardcore bands, and you don't understand the texts. So why sing or roar? Let's remember that Sludge is actually a very groovy mix of blues and hardcore and let us play this mix with a feeling of rhythm that only Brazilians can get. Be it Sepultura or Chico Science and even Krisiun grooves despite all the brutality. Madbong´s EP just takes 17 minutes of grooving and positively swinging brutality, which is actually a contradiction itself. Madbong...

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...

Every day, my Bandcamp algorithm sends me interesting new bands from all over the world that I probably won't see at festivals or concerts in the next 25 years. They're either from Canada, New Zealand, or Chile, or they're one-man projects, or they come from a country with a relatively small music scene, like Spin the Skull from Portugal. The cover of their eponymous debut album reminded me of the numerous crust, hardcore, and D-beat bands I listened to in the 80s, and I immediately pressed...

After a creative break of just six months, the Washington band is releasing their second album, and I can already tell you that it will take you across the Sahara, from one oasis to another, and thus from one style to another. The more rock-oriented debut is now followed by a more relaxed version of the desert trip, with significantly more oriental influences. The opener, "Earth Wisdom," is a pretty hard-rocking song, but the following song, "The Search Continues," reminds me strongly of Peter...

You can listen to both albums in one sitting without skipping a single song. I don't know how most Swedish bands manage to find just the right balance between brutal rock, a dirty, distorted fuzz sound, the right timing, and catchy melodies. It's a joy to welcome this band back to the international stage and hopefully see them again. The package with Greeleaf and 10,000 Years would be absolutely amazing.

After shaking things up with their last album After The Storm, the Munich-based trio Blind Mess is back – and still pissed, loud, and full of fuzz. Their new album The Storm Within is the second part of their “Storm Duology”, and judging by the four tracks out now, it's going to hit just as hard. The opener "The Bell" already shows where the journey is going: heavy riffs, dirty grooves, and vocals that sound like they're shouted straight from the gut. It’s a song about inner conflict,...

La France sait faire du vin, du fromage, et apparemment, du stoner punk à plein régime aussi. Avec Bronca, le groupe de La Fare Les Oliviers nous livre un album serré de dix titres qui sonne comme un road trip endiablé à travers fuzz, feu et pur esprit DIY. Si vous les avez vus en concert, comme au Rising Dead Boys Festival en septembre 2024, vous le savez : ces gars-là ne font pas de concerts, ils balancent des coups de poing musicaux avec le sourire. L'album démarre avec « Broken Nose...

From the heart of Indonesia's underground scene, WHITEHOVSE emerges with their debut album, The Mighty One, delivering a potent mix of doom and stoner rock that's as heavy as a monsoon and as raw as a jungle trail. This isn't polished studio rock; it's the sound of five musicians pouring their souls into every riff and lyric. The album kicks off with "Endless Sorrow", setting the tone with thick, fuzzy guitar lines and a rhythm section that feels like a slow-moving freight train—unstoppable...

Seven years after their last release, Helltown, Electric Citizen returns with EC4, a powerful statement of renewal and raw energy. The album showcases a fusion of hypnotic grooves, searing guitars, and Laura Dolan's mesmerizing vocals. The album opens with "Mire," setting a heavy tone that persists throughout. "Static Vision," the first single, delivers uptempo rhythms and killer guitar work, reminiscent of early Uncle Acid. The track transitions into a slower, ethereal groove with layered...

With The Spin, Messa takes another big step forward. Their fourth album is a dark, elegant ride through doom, gothic and even jazz-influenced territories – and it’s easily their most refined work to date. The first track, "Void Meridian," opens the gate into their world: slow, moody, and full of atmosphere. The sound is thick, but never overdone. Guitars ring like church bells in a storm. The rhythm section keeps it grounded. But it’s Sara Bianchin’s voice that really carries the weight...
