Spine Chilling Breeze – Milky Way

Spine Chilling Breeze – Milky Way
Self released – 2012
Rock, Stoner, Metal
Rated: ****

As we mentioned back in March, the Greek quartet Spine Chilling Breeze was set to release their debut album this year after being formed in the middle of 2011. That’s some fast and true work ethic and definite good and promising effort. We continue down that dusty trail that they started us on with their promo. High desert stoner infused with a mostly low desert attitude and some nineties metal. Add a dash of grunge and a splash of samples and you have a Greek interpretation of that Palm Desert sound. And with expert bass work and soulful riffing they come close in producing that dry heat feeling that their obvious influences started and mastered. But just like a high noon desert the mirage shimmers a bit too much to keep everything easily visible and the vocals distort it further. Leaving us with a tasty but tiny oasis; that can still improve and grow to provide even more next summer…
