This is an amazing debut imo. Great heavy psych, though "Take It or Leave It" is far from heavy. But... I like it. It's a catchy, happy tune. THEN THERE'S "EDEN". Holy shit, this is one bad ass song. The vocals are an almost rhythmic chant that carry you along, but check out the fuzz beginning at approx. 2:25!!! It's teeth grinding, hair-standing-straight-up, KILLER guitar work. I freaking LOVE this song. This band's new album ranked #9 in doomcharts.com for 2020 but it all started here!

Longing To Be The Mountain

How I live 90 miles away in Syracuse & am just now experiencing this band is a mystery. Glad I solved it. The progression from the kinda slow, melodic, spacey comfortable to kick ass bang my head jamming from musicians who are not only top notch, but also play from the soul is a sublime listening experience. I LOVE everything I've heard from this band. They are in their own category, as I personally won't waste time on comparisons. 👑🐃 is bad ass. Proud to be their neighbor 🤘.

Only Ghosts
by Red Fang
The surprisingly comical new video from roaring metal group Red Fang is a tip of the hat to the original “Predator.”
