Monster Riff – Presents

 

 

Monster Riff – Presents

It was weird being on the other side of the mic for once. But it was definitely a pleasure meeting up with Pat Schober from Monster Riff. It felt like too big an honor to be interviewed by him about Stoner HiVe, Doom Charts and well, myself. But it did give me the opportunity to exaggerate my musical abilities and my stint with various bands. So, if you want to hear me profess my love for heavy rock, how a certain period in time cemented my love for stonerrock and hear me give a few insights about proper promo emails and nonsense about how bands can make it in our little scene. Well, you can check it out on that mean Monster Riff site! Fair warning, can’t listen to it myself, always have trouble hearing myself working out interviews as well. So, it might be some kind of pitch in my voice that will definitely mess up your day and give you nightmares… But from those little skips and moments that I did hear, I definitely do love The Same River, Sergeant Thunderhoof a lot a nd how Purple Sage PR does everything exactly right!

Thanks again to Pat from Monster Riff for bestowing this honor on me… And for all those who decide to listen to the podcast, thank you as well! And don’t say I did not warn you!

The Doom Chart For May 2022

 

 

Doom Charts

The May 2022 edition of the Doom Charts is here! Only two entries carried over from the Forty we published back in April. I’m sure you can do the math, but that means, 38 new albums listed! Of a total of 255 that received votes. Although that wild ECSTATIC VISION album carried over from that post of pure adoration called Peroration. Madman Tony Maim wrote back then:
 
ECSTATIC VISION have a heavy, sun-drenched psychedelic/stoner sound that pays tribute to 70’s hard rock. Vocals are clean and put through reverb for a great trippy effect. Riffs are plentiful and the dirty fuzzed sound is perfect to get your head moving. But – before you start to get too comfortable, ECSTATIC VISION throw in passages that start to pile on the intensity with meatier playing which morph Hawkwind with The Stooges! This is the good shit.

And he was right! It might be the final post from Tony for a while, for he is taking a breather. Catch you on the flipside Madman! But, we’re also welcoming back Tom Hanno and the join-up of Monster Riff founder Pat Schober. Welcome on board, let’s set sail for uncharted waters and listen to some good and heavy stuff!

May is all sorts of heavy and heavy of all sorts! Just peruse that new edition of the Doom Charts! So many great releases once again...
 
Personal votes of the ones that made the list went out to: Wo Fat, Besvärjelsen, Ecstatic Vision, Geezer, Red Moon Shaman, UFOMAMMUT, The Same River, Stöner, Wucan, Helms Alee & Red Sun Atacama...
 
Will be doing a rundown of the entire May list in a row once again starting today! And starting with that awesome Red Sun Atacama album DARWIN!
