Stoner HiVe's Quick Fire Weekend


Stoner HiVe's Quick Fire Weekend


During a Weekend, there’s always Sunday to contend with. And you know how a Sunday can be. Difficult, heavy and especially the mornings. And it could have been much heavier, If I had been able to make that amazing gig of Phe and Ziener in The Bunker, in Gemert, Netherlands yesterday. But if you do a Quick Fire Weekend, you got to, got to, got to, do it right… And let’s do it really right this time around! Some incredible albums and perhaps even a bandcamp code or two... So, this here, is the second day of that Quick Fire Weekend! Meant to spread the word on all that good stuff out there! And we know… There is so much out there, so much good and heavy stuff, and we just simply cannot ever do it all justice. But here it is… Another Sunday edition of Stoner HiVe's Quick Fire Weekend! And it burns hot like molten lava!


 
Purification – Elphinstone


Starting off with a bang! Released on the third week of October, it made the 14th spot of the October Doom Charts. We’re talking about Elphinstone by Purification. The Portland four deliver no less than twelve tracks of highly impressive doom metal. But this is not your average highly impressive doom metal. No sire, they dive into unexplained historic events and translate that to some doom metal that implores synth and sax and does that to a brilliant degree. Turning their doom metal into something entirely their own. Purification has used alchemy to distill the red mercurial liquid and named it Elphinstone


And we’ve got a few Bandcamp Codes for the fast few that love some Elphinstone:

Sadhus, The Smoking Community - Illegal Sludge

Continuing with a boom! Greek five-piece Sadhus, The Smoking Community bring the crust to the doom and the filth to the sludge. Delivering eight extreme versions of said genres via a maelstrom of muck and mire. But the turbulent vortex turns really frantic towards the end of opening seven-minute-long track Mel O.D. when the trumpet takes the listener through the wormhole and into a tunnel of freak out weirdness. Aggression lurks, but mostly in the harsh vocals and the unswerving, head-on, collision course punches of drums and intent. Illegal Sludge, is the new the drug of choice among Sadhus, The Smoking Community !

Heráldica de Mandrake – Magia Subversiva Metálica

Heráldica de Mandrake hails from Chile, and soon they will be releasing a complete compilation of the work they have done so far called Magia Subversiva Metálica. Or at least almost all of it and will add to this compendium the brand-new single: ‘Marcha para una generación de Condenados’. Their take on doom metal is filled with heroism and rising tones that herald the coming of something valiant. But the underlying dirge hint at the bravery needed to combat the ominous scourge lying in wait. This is true for all their earlier work as well as that new single. Which has a deeper, slower, more monastic approach. Heráldica de Mandrake takes their holy doom charge seriously…

Buddhadatta / Paul Kidney Experience - split LP

You in for some buddha punk? Some oriental kraut? Trashy garage from the Pacific? Get a load of the Buddhadatta / Paul Kidney Experience - split LP out on Kasumuen Records. The two bands played together in March 2023 on Buddhadatta's debut Australian tour. from that encounter a relationship has developed resulting in this release and Paul Kidney Experience heading back to Japan in 2024. Each band takes an LP side a piece, presenting material never before released on vinyl. Delivering some harsh, experimental, yet oddly inspirational weirdness!

Hoguera - Burn At The Stake

Four-piece Hoguera hails from Buenos Aires, Argentina and mention being influenced by bands like STAKE, Mastodon, Gojira, and Slipknot. But Faith No More must definitely also be among their favorites. And this is a good thing, cause making a cocktail of the bands mentioned above means you’re are brewing up something delicious. And you can quench your Hoguera thirst by checking out the English version of their Maleza single called Burn At The Stake. After having it on repeat for an hour or two, I’m drunk on Hoguera!

Modern Technology - Conditions of Worth


The cool Human Worth label is owned by the drummer of this duo. The new Conditions of Worth album by the Modern Technology duo was released back in October. So logically, it was released on their own label! Noise, sludge, punk and post hardcore, all rolled into something that only barely seems to contain the sonic wildness within. Cracks appear and burn marks are everywhere. Powerful and scarring, the Conditions of Worth album is not to be taking lightly. No, this is heavy, on all fronts!

The Last Fuzz – Take The Fall

I thought Bandcamp sites came naturally nowadays, but The Last Fuzz from Norway isn’t on it. Yet? Which is a shame, cause Take The Fall is an album that deserves to be heard by one and all! Garage fuzz and a whole lot of punk! And there are those moments that remind of the early nineties, that dirty grunge, that muddy attitude. Yes, they have something here, these Skedsmokorset three. And hey, if this is The Last Fuzz you will ever hear, well, you’ve heard something unapologetic grungy and darn good!

Deathchant – Thrones

Number seven on the October Doom Charts, it’s Thrones by Deathchant. Out on RidingEasy Records the four piece know how to perfectly melt eighties metal, seventies hardrock into something jampacked with dueling leads, razor sharp riffs, and hooks galore! Influences from doom and punk, an eye for a bit of sludge and whirling vocals that will leave a mark. Bitemark. On ThronesDeathchant has become a true king!
