Rated: ****

As we inch closer to the deadline for YOUR lists for the Stoner HiVe Top 20 Countdown of 2024. Namely, before Saturday December 14th, 8.00 CET. We decided to dive deep into that folder full of albums we desperately had wanted to mention this year. We wrote about something like 250 albums and EP’s this year. But in that folder, there are still some 400 more that we wanted to bring attention to. And we are saddened that we will never get to that… But well, besides trying to keep on top of all the new ones coming out, we’re now trying to bring into the spotlight one from every month passed that we unfortunately did not mention during that month. This brilliant one for instance, from January. They’re called Black Toaster and hail from Bern, Switzerland. And on this three track Flying Rage Machine EP they deliver some gritty and groovy rock ‘n roll. A bit of punk energy and a lot of stonerrock influence take their hardrock into the land of gigantic swagger and monstrous grooves. There are moments that remind more of Sweden’s finest and a few instances that bring to mind that lost brilliant band of Lausanne, Switzerland called Feuerzeug. Flying Rage Machine gives you ten minutes of wildness, a bit of rage and a lot of riff flying! And that bass work in final track Evil Eye! Wowzah!
