Stoner HiVe’s Top 5 artists listened to last week…


Stoner HiVe’s
Top 5 artists listened to last week…


Once again, a day late with the Top 5 Most Listened albums of the past week. But everyone knows the deal, work, life and everything in between gets in the way. But here it is, those five favorites of the past week. Killer Boogie is back with a new record called Acid Dream, out on Heavy Psych Sounds. Catchy, fuzz heavy hardrock with enough kandy-kolored psychedelics to induce flashbacks! Mythic Sunship, featured on the Doom Charts released their new Upheaval record through El Paraiso Records. As we already mentioned: Grade A psychedelic space rock straight from the heart of Denmark. It’s jazzy, it’s groovy, it’s sunny and it’s spacious doom with the exact right amount of kraut. JIRM! Jeremy Irons and the Ratgang Malibus, as they used to be called, releases Surge Ex Monumentis, though Small Stone. The name change also features a change in sound. More metallic and more progressive touches. We definitely dig it! When Fu Manchu drops another record, one must sit up, pay attention and listen! Clone Of The Universe is out on At The Dojo Records. Their definite skate and surf take on stoner is still there, and it still shines like a summer morning sun full of promise. And as the sun starts the set we switch to side B, featuring only one eighteen-minute track. Featuring Rush guitarist Alex Lifeson, it gives us a progressive stoner jam extravaganza that cannot do anything else but mesmerize! Sundrifter is another outfit that delivers graded A stoner! Visitations, features nine steamy, sweltering desert rockers that meander through some psychedelic avenues and space-oriented heaviness. What a record! As are all of them! So check’m out! Check’m all out!

Killer Boogie – Detroit


Killer Boogie – Detroit
Heavy Psych Sounds – 2015
Rock, Classic, Seventies, Proto, Punk
Rated: ****

Although coming from Italy, Killer Boogie have named their album Detroit and indeed have embraced the early 70’s rock sound which will always be associated with that city. Cooper, Nugent and the mighty MC5 are at the front of a sound which when mixed with Mountain and Cactus (I know they are not from Detroit!) give you a gritty, dirty fuzzed out and fucked up street band, living in the gutter and reaching for the stars. Gabriele Flori – vocalist/guitarist from Black Rainbows – takes this scuzzy collection of tracks and welds them together with distortion pedals set to “Stooges”! Some of the songs morph into psych mantras that circle around, giving hints of breathing spaces but fear not fuzz-fiends, on this album, all roads lead to heavy riffs in the end. With a clear but still raw sounding production, acoustic guitars can drift in and out, organs can drone in the background and some spacey effects can be used without ever feeling forced. This is a loving tribute to an earlier rock sound but without sounding like a rip-off. Killer Boogie keep it fresh sounding and vital. Play this and stick a finger up to ”The Man”!
