Stoner HiVe’s Quick Fire Friday
We haven’t done a Quick Fire Friday since December 2022! And because we haven’t done since last year, we take Quick Fire Friday session back into that year. Why not, right? We can do whatever we want and there is so much music being released every day, it is impossible to keep up. Luckily there are all kinds of blogs, zines, sites and podcasts to help us all out. And of course those monthly Doom Charts. But now, on this Friday we take it back to 2022 and party like 2023 hasn’t even happened yet. And you know the deal… There is so much out there, so much good and heavy stuff, and we just simply cannot ever do it all justice. So here it is. Another Stoner HiVe Quick Fire Friday! And it burns hot like molten lava!
Lord Of Confusion – Evil Mystery
Psychedelic stoner doom with nightmarish qualities straight out of the heart of Portugal! It’s four-piece Lord Of Confusion and their Evil Mystery album. Released somewhere in September 2022, the organ laced six track album has that classic doom feel and a definite air freezing, harrowing atmosphere. Evil Mystery came out on Gruesome Records and Morbid And Miserable Records, and will see you howling under a blood red moon…

More Portugal and more, way more, darkness… WinterMoonShade are an atmospheric black metal trio inspired by Nature, Spirituality, Dreams and Nightmares.

Red Mess – Breathtaker
The Red Mess three hail from Brazil, and with their eight track album Breathtaker they give you all the grungy stoner and gritty psychedelics you can handle. Out on All Good Clean Records and Stickman Records since October of 2022, this raw diamond sprinkles something noisy and alternative sound among all its stonerrock heaviness, leaving you in awe and tired, and worn, fulfilled and with a heart full of glee, and yes, breathless…

Fish Basket - Imaginarium
Fish Basket, released their music video for the song Imaginarium back in October 2022. The instrumental, progressive and psychedelic trio created the video for the Imaginarium song using AI. The result is something of a short sci-fi movie that fits perfectly with the music. “The recipe for the Imaginarium is locked behind the ancient doors. Three brave hunters are sent on a mission to get the three mysterious scrolls needed to open them... but somebody doesn't like it at all.” They stated. Well, whatever that evil might be, we love the outcome!

Waste A Saint - Hypercarnivore
We mentioned their The Healer single, but never got around to writing something about the full Hypercarnivore album! We should be flogged for that, for Waste A Saint is awesome! The quartet from Trondheim, Norway, give you nine highly electrifying alternative rock tracks. Garage, stonerrock, hardrock and everything extremely sexy and highly danceable. It all sounds like the kind of music you desperately need to experience in a live setting, in a sweaty, completely packed venue… Best be keeping an eye out for their tourdates..
Dope Skum – Folk Magic
The Dope Skum single Folk Magic came out in October 2022 and is the lead single for the Gutter South five track coming out in April 2023. The duo’s steaming, sweltering hot sludge and fuzzed out doom, comes at you with sharp punky edges and filthy metal. And still has some much groove and bounce it will surely have you bopping your head like some crazed muppet…

Doubtsower - The Endless Shadow of Despicable Power
Somewhere in a dark and twisted gutter in the UK lives Matt Strangis, the sole performer behind that one man project called Doubtsower. The man behind Unbidden Audio released his second Doubtsower project The Endless Shadow of Despicable Power back in December of 2022. Blackened doom metal, with overtones of electronic and ambient atmospheres and experimentation. Which means there is a small spotlight shining on all that dim gloom and bleak doom. The shadow therefor does not seem completely endless, but it’s definitely long and malevolent…
Dead King's Peace - Dead King's Peace
Let’s end this Quick Fire Friday session, with some motoring, high speed, high octane, hard rocking and rolling! The five, but now I believe to be four piece, from Indianapolis, Indiana, USA called Dead King's Peace give you nine tracks of stoner metal, grunge and doomy hardrock on their self-titled release from November. The perfect soundtrack for an honest run down the coast, at the dead of night, when the moon is out and headlights aren’t even necessary. Hitting those curves to clear your head, and let the howling wind be the underscore for all that metal roughness from Dead King's Peace…
