Stoner HiVe's Quick Fire Weekend

What is this that stands before me? It’s one of those fabled Quick Fire Weekends! That’s right… You knew about those Friday sessions, but once in a full moon, and all the planets align, this thing might just happen. A 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 Saturday edition of Stoner HiVe's Quick Fire Weekend! And it burns hot like molten lava!

Molior Superum – Spegeln

We love Molior Superum! And have loved these cats ever since Myspace was still a thing! So, when they shoved Spegeln our way, we had it on repeat in no time! Exceptionally groovy, powerful, energetic and riveting! It’s the first single for the Från Gryning till Skymning album that will be released somewhere near October/November. What a blast off for this Quick Fire Weekend! Spegeln is high-voltage seventies psychedelia, blues-drenched stoner rock and grimy garage swagger all melted into a wild, groove-heavy sonic assault. Fueled by frantic vocals, explosive riffs and relentless boogie rhythms, their sound feels both vintage and dangerous. Like a lost rock classic detonating in real time through blown-out amplifiers!

Molior Superum – The Inconclusive Portrait

Molior Superum – Into The Sun

Molior Superum – Towards The Haze

Méchant Colosse - Big Au Japon

This new single will hopefully also be added to their bandcamp site soon. Bass and drums doom duo from the Canadian wastelands of Montreal, Québec. It’s Méchant Colosse and the four track EP this track will be featured on is set to be released after the summer. Sludgy, doom metal that has a certain 'je ne sais quoi'. Mysteriously good, and apparently big in Japan!

Bog – Incubant

There are many bogs around the world and many are worth it to get totally stuck in! But the new four-piece from Ghent, Belgium mixing post-metal, sludge and heavy psych is definitely the kind of quagmire to fall in love with. They make it swampy, or use their aggressive side or let it all escape the murk and have their melodies float above the treacle… This Bog is good!

Godzilla In The Kitchen – Nothing For None

The new Godzilla In The Kitchen album will be out on Tonzonen Records somewhere in October. But right now you can join the rampage with the first single Nothing For None! Ever more proggy, ever more metal, it is their alternative groove that will surely pull you in. And with the bass player stepping up to do the vocals Godzilla has turned into a smoke-belching beast, high on stoner grooves, progressive detours and furious social paranoia. Simon Ulm howls from the eye of the storm while the riffs grind forward like riot tanks through a psychedelic fever dream!

Her Name Was Fire – Obsidian Light

I miss Portugal often. Lisbon as well. All my times there was pure fire. So I get the name! An EP filled with fuzzed-out grooves, swaggering hooks and amplifier smoke pouring from every crack. Her Name Was Fire rides the line between Queens of the Stone Age cool and psychedelic overload, whipping massive choruses into a wild, sweat-soaked heavy-rock communion. And there’s only two of them!! Wild stuff! For wild Lisbon nights!

Jangal – Stolen Places

It arrived through Snowhite PR, the new psychedelic single Stolen Places by Jangal. Berlin-based New Zealander Brodie White is responsible for your lust to start wandering through a collapsing shopping mall at 2AM with sparks falling from the ceiling and someone preaching doom through a broken karaoke machine. Brodie twists post-punk tension, urban decay and strange neon melancholy into a hypnotic crawl through the cracked soul of transactional modern existence. Wait what?

Dead Hits – Real Love

Echodelick Records rules! But you already knew that! Originally released in 2025, the Real Love is a five track by Dead Hits. A Brooklyn-based stoner rock band delivering volume, grit, and groove straight from the underground, featuring former members of NAAM and La Otracina. Well, Dead Hits seem to stumble out of the New York psychic smog clutching fuzz-drenched riffs, wah-pedal hallucinations and garage-rock napalm. Real Love howls like a subway exorcism at sunrise! Acid-soaked psych, gutter-punk swagger and amplifier worship colliding in a glorious, feedback-screaming riot somewhere between cosmic revelation and total nervous collapse. Glorious!

Molior Superum – Electric Escapism

Self released – 2014

Rock, Seventies, Psych, Stoner, Garage

Rated: *****

We at the HiVe have always worn our colors on our sleeve. We do not mind professing our undying love for great music, it is actually the one thing we really do and certainly do no care if we come across as star struck fans. Like we are for the Molior Superum guys, and have been since the days of their first EP Towards The Haze in 2011. We bought multiple copies to hand out to our friends and band members of their full-sized album Into The Sun that arrived a year later. And really struggled to not hit repeat buttons over and over again when The Inconclusive Portrait rolled around last year. And guess what, the wild times are here again. An all new EP by the quartet of Swedes named: Electric Escapism. Four tracks that are as wicked a rock whirlwind as everything they put out before. Just listen to the way they stomp into your house with that drum and riff, this is glorious, and this is a band that knows that they are victorious before the battle has even started. Four magnificent tracks that speed through your speakers and blows the roof off your house. Seventies blues boogie groove and psychedelic stoner stompers that leave you breathless and craving more! Highly energetic and extremely electric and you should not let this one escape out the door!

H42 Records/Self released – 2014

Rock, Stoner, Psych, Seventies, Garage

Rated: ****

As soon as that chased voice starts wailing over the rumbling and crashing drums you’re hooked and the remaining eight minutes are spent in utter head nodding bliss. The boys from Molior Superum return to us with a two track single called The Inconclusive Portrait after releasing their amazing Into The Sun album in 2012. Still claiming their very own version of high energy stoner garage and seventies psychedelica that exhumes something classic; the two tracks continue where their full-sized album left off. It all sounds even fuller and more mature; and where the wildness from Into The Sun could deter some listeners from fully grasping the exquisite quality of the songs. On the new single it serves as a high crested wave to surf from; keeping your head held high and above the water at all times and always making sure it never swallows you whole. But it’s still there and it still highly groovy and has you jumping around looking for some dune boogie to party on. And those two tracks has you lusting for more Molior Superum…

Rated: *****

This album has been spinning in my home and car for a few months now, driving my girl crazy for she can never understand why something goes on repeat that much. And I’m on the verge of ordering a case of vinyl’s for my bandmates; cause they know how to operate the repeat button. These young dogs come from villages such as Stenungsund and Orust; little specks on the Swedish map. (And our bassplayer may actually own a house in their vicinity!?) The four found each other somewhere around 2009 and after a few rehearsals decided to call their band Molior Superum. In 2011 they already released a superb demo called Towards The Haze and now we are treated to their debut album Into The Sun. A high-energy mix of classic spacerock, grimy garage and psychedelica from the seventies. With their roots firmly planted in blues they make all those influences melt together in one kinghell of a freaky funk adventure. The extreme expressive, high-pitched, hunted and nervous voice of main vocalist Carl Isaksson seems to bring his message with a feverous necessity. And when towards the end of the record after many enchanting guitar battles and exquisite riffs we are even treated to a bit of Hammond there is only one conclusion left: the seventies are alive and kicking ass! Musical dynamite!!!

Molior Superum – Towards The Haze

Molior Superum – Towards The Haze
Self released – 2011
Rock, Stoner, Seventies, Space, Funk, Garage
Rated: ****

Hailing from little specks on the Swedish map like Stenungsund and Orust in the north of Gothenburg with about 25.000 and 2000 residents; four young dogs found each other and started jamming together to form the Molior Superum band back in 2009 that we find before us today. And before they enter the studio in the beginning of 2012 to record their debut album we are treated to a three-song preview. Towards The Haze as the demo is called takes you on an old school spacerock and funkout journey that reminds of the freak bands from the seventies. It holds the old blues roots of the music in honor while going of on funk tantrums with garage speed. With a steady rhythm and massive freak outs; with drum fills a plenty and seminal guitar battles. And with an exciting distinctive voice it holds spectacular promise for what’s to come… Musical dynamite!
