Solanhum – Rostratum
LSDR Records – 2022
Rock, Psych, Fuzz, Stoner, Doom
Rated: ****
I might be mistaken here. I often am. But it seems that the Rostratum album by Mexican duo Solanhum has received way too little attention. Released early September by the very cool LSDR Records, the Mexican duo takes you on a wild, wonderful, and very psychedelic adventure. Five tracks, forty-five minutes of earthy, natural sounding psych that implores the fuzz to an awesome degree. Touches of stoner and doom are there to bring you into the more trucking realm of their album or the slow and downtrodden parts. Featuring two members of Vinnum Sabbathi, the duo also invites two guests on the album to deliver some keys on two tracks. Third track Shine On You Crazy Balrog features Hector Fernandez on keys, from the Grábale Grábale Studio, where the album was recorded. Hector Fernandez is also responsible mixing and mastering the album and does some fine key work on that track. What follows is fifteen minute long battleship track: Ariamnes (the Real Name of a Facehugger), with an extra layer of Moog synth, performed by Juan Tamayo from Vinnum Sabbathi. A special track that link chains all these different parts together with that Moog, and the combination of intense crashes, grooving rhythms and low roaring riffs. Special tracks are also the opener and closer. For opener Basti (Falling into the natural realm) pays homage to the guitar player of German band Weedruid Sebastian "Basti" Adolph who sadly passed away in 2020 and closing Weedruid - Eis Sieben, is that bands unreleased track. Which seems to fit perfectly with the overall feeling of Rostratum, that of paying homage to all that good and heavy stuff floating around in the world.
And you might wanna scroll down a bit… Cause for the lucky few there might just be a code…
Thanks to Solanhum…
