Hey, Eveligh! You familiar with this one (I wasn't until a buddy sent it to me this week)......been awhile since we've posted any off the wall, stoned to the gills out and out fucking STONER ROCK (and I am sorry, that stuff SHOULD be my first priority, but you see am I am trying to showcase my diverisitility, thus my dilemma).....From 2007 0r 08, "pure" Stoner rock's "Golden age" (oh, Good Lord), these boyos were from Belgium and were comprised of bassist Jan Wygers, Aldo Sturyf on guitar.vocals and keyboards, drummer Michael Lawerence, guitarist Michael van Cluevenbergen. Mark Lanegan guests all over this album, which should be a good thing, this is fuzzed-out, stoned-out riff heavy rock, the kind you know I love, an
d I am always going to post on this site.......I think they made another album or 2 after this, I am not terribly familiar, but this one did catch my ear for a minute or two........fans of Kyuss, QOTSA, maybe stuff like Orange Goblin and Fu Manchu might think of this as a cool curiosity (I do)........hey, Stoner Rock RULES, always has always will........it's just intersting to occasionaly turn up an unknown gem of the genre that flips our salad bowls!
I AM THE GOLDEN GATE BRIDGE-01 The Psychedelic World Of The Creature With the Atom Brain/02 16 Inch Revolver/03 Black Out, New Hit/04 Mind Your Own Hit/05 Is That Lady Sniff/06 Broken Flowers Grow/07 Not a Sect/08 Blackended Roses, Same Ol' Doses/09 Park My Car Outside the Record Store/10 Rapeman's Scalp/11 Crawl Like a Dog/12 I'm Gonna Roll
As I said, been a little while since I went the straight up stoner route, which of course is a passion of mine.......if you are simply a "music" fan, maybe not.......but if you are a fan of stoner rock, as I and others are, this is a gem that will mkae you smile. Sometimes this stuff "tries" a little hard to deliberately be "weird" and this one kinda falls into that chasm, but still, some fine stoned out lyrics, some awesome riff-a-rama, and some excellent spacey keyboards make this and album worthy of your shelf!
