Stoner Hive’s Quick Fire Friday


Stoner Hive’s Quick Fire Friday


Welcome! To another wild Quick Fire Friday edition... Courtesy of our in house poet: Ronny Dijksterhuis. He has once again chosen some ten glorious singles, videos or EP's to throw at you. And all of them are worth every second of your time. Ronny Dijksterhuis knows the deal! And you know what that means... Things will get hot and heavy from here on in! Like molten lava! 


You don't have to be a genius to guess where the name of this little old blog comes from. It's our undying love for the stoner rock genre and that's were some bands in this Quick Fire Friday shop for inspiration. But we wouldn't be Stoner Hive if we didn't throw in some curveballs. So let's turn up those amps, be surprised and start cracking those riffs.

 

 

Plastic Woods - All I Know

'All I Know' is the first appetiser for Plastic Wood's upcoming album 'Mirrors'. It's got one hell of a chugging stoner groove to get you moving, but also a recurring funk melody that gives this song a special touch.

Goblyns - Darlings

On their latest single Berlin-based psychedelic rock outfit Goblyns offers us a nice example of their take on rock and psychedelic music. Swirling around a steady, melodic and addictive bass line, it explores everything from pop and rock to ripping guitar leads.

Boss Keloid - Landslide

With Boss Keloid you never know what to expect. Starting out as a full-on sludge combo in their earlier days, they evolved into what they are today: a band that embraces progressive influences to go along with the sludge, while also moving way beyond anything they ever were before. Landslide is a nine and a half minute treasure trove of killing boundaries and exploring new ones at the same time. It's also the first preview of their new album 'Float & Aperture'.

 RUT! - Hello F**k You

Couldn't find a Bandcamp link to this song, so we'll present you the full video of RUT!'s single 'Hello F**k You'. It's a fast-paces stoner frenzy with some influences from alternative rock and punk seeping in. These three Italians surely deliver the goods!

Ruben Romano - Il Baffone

On October 13th Ruben Romano (The Freeks, Nebula, Fu Manchu) will release the second instalment of his imaginary soundtrack series. With guest musicians Isaiah Mitchell, The Freeks band members Jonathan Hall and Ray Piller, as well as Rainer Fraenkel (The Miracle Mongers, producer of The Freeks' 'Crazy World'), you can't go wrong and this fantastic tune delivers the exclamation mark behind that statement. This is part psychedelic freak fest, part laid-back desert rock and part high quality spaghetti western that sounds fuckin' great. No other words needed.

ELM - Party Crasher

'Party Crasher' is the opening track of ELM's new album 'The Midnight Zone', their first one in over six years. As far as I'm concerned everyone should be allowed to crash parties when noise rock rumbles like this. Lots of power and raucous greatness to take the festivities to new heights.

The Streamliner - Parasite

French powerhouse The Streamliner knows how to handle that old-fashioned (in the best sense of the word), heavy, groove-driven stoner rock with some alternative/grunge elements thrown in for good measure. All the proof you need is the title song and first single of their upcoming album, set for release November 13th.

Black Space Riders - Party is Over (The Last Curfew)

Starting off as a relaxed psychedelic tune that slowly gains pace, power and energy, 'Party is Over (The Last Curfew)' is one of the best songs Black Space Riders have produced in years and makes me look forward to 'Die 8', the latest addition to their already impressive catalogue which will also see the light of day on November 13th.

תהום - בצורת

Stoner meets (psychedelic) rock meets middle eastern music is the name of the game on בצורת's (Drought) debut EP תהום (Abyss). With four songs in approximately 14 minutes, this is a short one that makes you eager to hear more of this Israeli band in the future. It's really good with, despite the compactness, lots of little twists and turns. Really, really good.

Kanaan - P1800

To end this ten ton trip we deliver you Kanaan's latest track 'P1800', an all out balls out instrumental heavy stoner psych tune that'll have you flip out in no time.

Stoner Hive’s Quick Fire Friday

 


Stoner Hive’s Quick Fire Friday


Welcome! To another wild Quick Fire Friday edition.. Courtesy of our in house poet: Ronny Dijksterhuis.Slinging his words with precision and honor he is here to show you the way through some seriously underground cul de sac's! Presented below are ten glorious singles and EP's all worth every second of your time... Ronny Dijksterhuis knows the deal! And you know what that means... Things will get hot and heavy from here on in!

For those of you who are still in WC football detox mode, we present you a full heavy underground team of top-notch players who would've left the eventual champions stranded in the middle of the Arizona desert with ease. No Philadelphia highlights, no unwanted halftime show and no hydration breaks, especially not in the desert where lots of our stars bloom in the best way possible, kicking up dust and eating cacti for breakfast, lunch and dinner while gulping sand like it's some kind of high quality Belgian beer. Yes, it's Quick Fire Friday again with not 8, not 9, not 10, but a once in a lifetime 11 (relatively) new singles and EP's we here and Stoner Hive think you all should check out to conquer the blistering heat of summer. Concentrating on Travo from Braga, Portugal seems like the perfect way to start this exercise.


Travo - Burial

'Burial' is the first appetiser from Travo's upcoming album 'Wasteland' that will see the light of day on October 2nd. It's a loud, thunderous and abrasive take on heavy psych with thick riffs, a monstrous rhythm section and an overdose of psychedelic goodness that blows you way back in your seat, waiting for that glorious moment to arrive when the sound barrier is being smashed to smithereens.

30,000 Monkies - Prism Break / Super Rebound

30,000 Monkies from Beringen, Belgium are making sure you will all mark September 18th on you Calendar with a big red dot. Because the two songs they released so far from their upcoming album 'Super Rebound' (the title track and 'Prism Break') are a perfect example of technical, repetitive, experimental metal with lots of punch and more than enough variation and subtle shifts to keep your ears glued to the speakers of your sound system, taking the risk of permanent hearing damage for granted. An aggressive, blunt, in your face slab of metal that might best be described as Meshuggah on a doubled dose of steroids, but with an identity all its own.

Arcane Montane - Around The Sun

'Around The Sun' is the second single from the self-tiled debut album by Arcane Montane, scheduled for release on September 26th. It's a scorching mix of seventies hardrock, stoner and NWOBHM displaying great musicianship and a singer with a clean, powerful voice and a little roughness somewhere hidden underneath. Or as the band states on their website: "Arcane Montane deliver the all out power, groove, intensity and presence of Ozzy riding bareback through the desert on a water buffalo." Hop on the beast and enjoy the ride!

Terra Black - In Stone

Terra Black are preparing to unleash their new album 'Mirage' somewhere in the middle of September. 'In Stone' is the first glimpse and starts with a simple, yet effective bass line that immediately sucks you into a somewhat eerie atmosphere. It can be described as slowed-down stoner, bordering on doom, draped with a nice occult-like veil where every ingredient is exactly where it should be. No unnecessary show-offs, but one tight unit moving forward in unison with the sole purpose of giving this fantastic song all the room it needs to breathe, while the intertwining male and female vocals add another layer of mysticism.

Suecide High - Feel the Flames

Suecide High produces infectious, high octane rawk 'n' roll mixed with powerful stoner on 'Feel the Flames'. It's not entirely representative of their upcoming debut 'Chaos Has Its Charm', as it appears to be the heaviest and sleaziest song on the album, but judging by the sample previews of all the other songs, we're in for one hell of a good rocking one come October 9th.

Sun Voyager - Coming Down

Ready for some psychedelic stoner, packed inside a three minute song? Well, in that case you can turn to Sun Voyager to fulfil your appetite. Not for destruction, but for a speed course in astral exploration by way of a scorching hot desert. Start blasting their new single 'Coming Down' and you'll get the drift.

Evil Eye - Under a Sabbath Moon

Back in May 2025 Evil Eye released their debut album 'Wizard War I'. Now they're back with a new single 'Under a Sabbath Moon' that is packed with Sabbathian riffs and lots of fuzzy goodness. If that ain't enough, there's a second song called 'High Atop the Mountain at Dawn (Dreaming of the Sea)' that follows the same recipe without sounding anywhere near the the same as 'Under a Sabbath Moon'. Together they clock in at about 16 minutes. It doesn't matter whether you call it a single b/w or a two track EP, because it's fucking great and a significant step forward from their first full length. Really looking forward to what they'll come up with in the future.

Tomb - Weeping and Gnashing of Teeth

With this release there's no discussion possible about the format. This is an EP. Period. Hailing from Roanoke, VA, Tomb are hovering above you like a swarm of giant deadly wasps - the kind you would encounter in old-fashioned horror movies - ready to confront you with your own mortality. Be it crushing stoner ('Heavy Glow'), bulldozer-style doom ('Frail'), something in between ('Weeping and Gnashing of Teeth') or danceable melodic stoner ('Thunderverb (Cosmic Eye)'), the bullseye is being hit every time with pounding drums, thriving bass and soaring guitars with a mixture of very strong clean vocals and nasty growls that reside somewhere between hardcore, sludge and black metal.

Phoxxxy Grama - The Sneak Attack Sessions


After so much regular stoner, doom and rock, it's time for a little sidestep. Not in power and intensity, but in the kind of music being made. Phoxxxy Grama's sound is basically a combination of melodic noise, alternative rock, grunge and a tiny bit of stoner, packed in first class songs and containing a wildfire of unexpected (and unexpectedly diverse) lead guitar shenanigans. Hope some of you will dig it too.

Witchthroat Serpent - Cursed Night Circle

A couple of days ago Heavy Psych Sounds announced they'll be releasing a new album from contemporary doom legends Witchthroat Serpent on October 9th, titled 'Demons Left to Roam', Along with that announcement opening track 'Cursed Night Circle' was being presented as a preview. After a one minute spoken intro the track unfolds itself as a primary example of traditional doom. Slow to mid-tempo grooves with a slightly haunting quality, exactly the right amount of fuzz, a good vocal delivery and a steady base of bass and drums. In other words: everything you gloom-filled heart needs to lift the spirit even lower. Great stuff.

Molior Superum - Mudslide Mama

Today (Friday July 24th) sees the release of Molior Superum's new single 'Mudslide Mama' which catches these Swedes at the top of their game. Swamp-driven stoner blues with a great hook and a sweet melody that gets your hips moving in no time. The perfect song to close this Quick Fire Friday in style and leave you behind with a sunny smile on your face. It's summer after all. Time to get up and dance.

Stoner Hive’s Quick Fire Friday


 

Stoner Hive’s Quick Fire Friday


Off on natural charge! Bon voyage! That's right, our very own in house poet and possible rap artist is off on a holiday, fueled by his own zealous energy and you might possibly stumble across him on some mic night in Dublin, May 25th! (The International Pub, Wicklow Street, starts at 20.00.) It's Ronny Dijksterhuis! And just before he ran out the door, he delivered another Quick Fire Friday segment in his very own style! And you know what that means... Things will get hot and heavy from here on in! 


On the brink of a highly anticipated holiday break, it's time to spit out another 
Quick Fire Friday. And I mean, a quick one, Lucky Luke style. So, no rambling about anything at all, just music, fired at you more rapidly than my keyboard's shadow could.

 

 


Prodigal Man – EPMMXXVI

Let's start with the new two track ep by Japanese guttural sludge doomsters Prodigal Man. If your skull still hasn't been cracked after hearing this, your amongst a few unlucky people in the world.

Creeper Bud - Creeper Bud

Taking inspiration from bands like Black Sabbath, St. Vitus and Cathedral, Illinois-based Creeper Bud serves us one of the best stoner/doom crossover songs I've heard this year. No mean feat considering this is their first ever single. It already has me salivating over the prospect of a possible album somewhere in the future.




Bandcamp

Burning Sister - Sunspots

Much against my own expectations Burning Sister's latest single grabs me by the throat big time. Doom and hazy psychedelics are fighting over whether or not to engage in unholy matrimony (and associated activities). The result is a seven and a half minute song that's as hypnotic as it is elusive.

Leash – Sit 

Leaning heavily on Fu Manchu fuzzadelics, combined with a spicy bite of Electric Frankenstein-style rock & roll, Leash (formerly Hudu Akil) deliver a fireball EP that'll have your neighbours complaining about noise pollution in no time.

Shed-It - Siamese

'Siamese', the new single by Dutch band Shed-It, is a perfect mix of alternative rock and stoner. Heavy stoner grooves with melodic parts for memorability's sake and some short, subtle moments to give you the idea what it might feel like when you'd get enough time to let everything that happens sink in. Very diverse, highly energetic and above all a great song from start to finish.

GURT - No Limit (feat. Black Mist)

A raucous, rocking version of worldwide nineties dance hit 'No Limit' is the first excerpt from GURT's upcoming EP 'Survival of the Shittest', scheduled for release on June 5th. Unexpected, but fun and catchy as fuck.

Wommer - Древнее Зло

The new single from Russian outfit Wommer (formerly known as EYE) addresses the topic of ancient evil in a gritty, aggressive heavy stoner doom track that is bound to rip your eardrums apart. Delicious one might say.

Thundergoat - Earthbound & Down

Want some more stoner doom goodness? Look no further than 'Earthbound & Down', the new EP by Tomah, WI's Thundergoat. Two tracks of weed-inspired goodness.

Cannabus - 4Runner

Canadian stoner rawk trio Cannabus are shaping up to release their first full length 'Ride the Bus' on July 3rd. They already released two tasty singles which were straight up stoner fuzz with a raw edge. Third single '4Runner' puts the pedal through the floor with speedrock meets turn of the century stoner. All drenched in an overdose of fuzz of course.

Cyborg Zero - Surfin' on Mars

On May 8th Go Down Records has released a remastered version of Cyborg Zero's 2021 self-released debut album 'Zero'. As an added bonus the re-released version starts with two brand new songs, one of which is this great stoner surf song 'Surfin' on Mars'. Turn up to 11 and shuffle those feet! And make sure to check out the entire album if you're not familiar with it yet. It's great.

Stoner Hive’s Quick Fire Friday

 


Stoner Hive’s Quick Fire Friday


Surprise! And not just for you crazies following the HiVe! But also for me, cause I had not expected the honorable Ronny Dijksterhuis to deliver another Quick Fire Friday round this fast! But it was suddenly there, slaved over during the night and sent before the sun rose. And you know what that means... Things will get hot and heavy from here on in! 

What do you do when you want to promote as many great music as humanly possible? Well, you absorb anything that scratches your auditive senses, train yourself in the art of selective puking and spit out the things that might stick not only in your own brain, but also in the grey lump residing in the skull of all you innocent heavy underground lovers that happen to stumble across our little old blog or one of its social media pages. So, let's skilfully throw up another eight stains of semi-digested sounds at your feet and call it a new episode of Quick Fire Friday. Enjoy!


Miracle Blood - Blazing Entrails

Miracle Blood's 2024 album 'Hello Hell' got rave reviews all over the globe and their new single 'Blazing Entrails' is another slab of bludgeoning madness, combining noise, speedrock, stoner rock and punk with a singer that more that once makes Jello Biafra pop up in your mind.




Bandcamp

Instagram



Pharm - Crackhead Arachnid

Progressive alternative noise metal. That's probably the best way to describe Pharm's new single 'Crackhead Arachnid'. A highly technical wave of swirling glory that sticks a knife in you well-trained ear and then gives it an extra twist to let you know they mean business. But however complex and jumpy it gets, the song remains the focal point and the vocals are excellent. Arguably the best song released so far this year.

Seasick Gladiator - Unhinged EP

In the comments under the March Doom Charts post on Facebook someone suggested to check out Seasick Gladiator as they haven't made the Doom Charts yet. As I never heard of the band before, I gave their latest EP Unhinged (released in January this year) a go. And I'm a bit ashamed not having discovered them earlier, because this is some tasty stoner doom with an interesting twist with the lead instrument being an atmospheric violin played in a manner that's quite similar to the one on My Dying Bride's standout album 'The Angel and the Dark River'. Add that to the powerful, traditional stoner setting of drums, bass and guitars, and you end up with a damn fine release that's different from anything else in the genre.

The Fixed Trio - Love. Fever. Blues.

When heavy blues has got that slow, dragging swagger with a stripped-down stoner rock undercurrent, it means it's good. The Fixed Trio's second single of their upcoming sophomore album 'Our Guilty Pleasure' has all that and more. A steady beat, a nicely rolling bass line and a great guitar solo make this a perfect tune for this time of year where nature comes alive again and the sun is making its way back from a long winter's sleep.


Ape Amp - Worse

Two Russian refugees, living in Bordeaux, France with one obvious mission: deliver some filthy and nasty sludge noise. Their first ever release is the single 'Worse'; a big ball of anger, bouncing off the cliffs of desperation. Wonderful indeed.




Bandcamp

Tidal Wave - Sideburns

By now you might ask yourself: what about some good, old-fashioned Scandinavian stoner rock? Well, we're happy to oblige and present you Tidal Wave's new single 'Sideburns'. It's so goddamn catchy and full of energy, you probably don't want to hear you'll have to wait until June 5th for the arrival of their new album 'Volume Three', which will be released through Ripple Music.

Stump Grinder - Forest Metal

Coming from Santa Cruz, CA, Stump Grinder delivers a furious mix of stoner, sludge and hardcore that will knock your teeth out. No other words needed to give you an impression of their music. But one advise could come in handy: be sure to make an appointment with the dentist before listening to this shit, because you might regret it if you don't.

Lior Izhaki Drums (feat. Guy Strier) - Dabur

During the 12 day war between Israel and Iran in June 2025, while having to hide in a bomb shelter, Israeli drummer Lior Izhaki turned one of them into a live creative space. He recorded ten different jam tracks with ten different guitar players. No vocals, no bass and no rehearsals. The results are being presented one by one, showcasing the raw intensity that situations like this are obviously bound to summon not only in the hearts of creative people, but to everybody who is involved in that kind of drama one way or another. The creative people are merely able to give those feelings a voice, or in this case a pure heartfelt explosion of drums and guitars. Oh yeah, 'Dabur' is number 8 in the line of 10 and the heaviest and most aggressive one of them all.

Stoner Hive’s Quick Fire Friday

 


Stoner Hive’s Quick Fire Friday


We've arrived on yet another final Friday of the month and we are treated once again to a Quick Fire Friday all done in famous Ronny Dijksterhuis style! Which means, this will get hot and heavy from here on in! You ready? 

For old time's sake I'm listening to AC/DC's 'The Razor's Edge' for the first time in years. Cool riffage, memorable tunes, just the right amount of grit and best listened to when the volume is turned up to 11, decibel meters living in the red constantly, the risk of sound distortion and blown-up speakers lurking around the corner. Exactly what we aim for with Quick Fire Friday: destroying your sound system, your ears and your reputation as the perfect neighbour in one go, smashing your thirst (or what's left of it) for doing everything within the confinements of society's strive for political correctness to smithereens. Yes, this is another one of those moments to start the weekend the right way with a bunch of new, (un)known songs and forgotten gems. So, to speak with that AC/DC classic that's about to start right now while writing these very words: "Are you ready for a good time?". A rhetorical question of course, because I bet you are and I know you'll be as blown away as us by the goodies listed below.

 

Trance Bill - Violent Impulsive Primitive

Trance Bill (Rodolphe of Mud Spencer) unleashed a surprising debut album last year and is already back with a follow up. The EP, titled 'Violent Impulsive Primitive' is exactly that and brings his stonerized, surfed-up psych rock garage punk to another level, drenched in some of the nastiest fuzz you've ever heard. Another great release rising from the Indonesian soil.




Bandcamp

Facebook


 

 Freedom Run - Soul Eater

Also from Indonesia comes another solo project called Freedom Run, a name more likely than not taken from the Kyuss song with the same name. Some shoes to fill, but Ghifari Hakim delivers ear-shattering, groove-driven stoner metal with a doom undercurrent that hands out punch after punch without giving you any room to breathe for the entire running time of the four track debut EP 'Soul Eater'. Great stuff and maybe there's a possibility to see Freedom Run live at some point, given the fact there are two full band rehearsal video's on Hakim's YouTube page. As the slogan goes: to be continued...




Bandcamp

Youtube


Mauled - When Your Eyes Are Shut

We get into even heavier territory with Mauled's low-tuned blackened sludge that leapfrogs the act of throwing punches and aims straight for your throat with a spiked belt, choking you to submission while violently belting in your face, spit drooling from the mouth of death. Even though what's being said gets drowned in an overdose of indecipherable screams and growls, you will exactly know what to do: drop to your knees and bow to the lords of aggression before you get mauled even more.

Okay You Win – Smoke

'Smoke' is the lead single from 'End of Days', the upcoming debut album by London rockers Okay You Win. It's an organic blend of British metal from the eighties, nineties grunge and dusty desert rock, but above all a great song played to perfection as it flows smoothly from section to section, from head-nodding up-tempo grooves to moments of restraint and back again with a singer who can deliver the goods in every way. A stunning preview for what promises to be an incredible album if the other songs can match the quality of 'Smoke'.




Bandcamp

Facebook

Instagram


High Fade – Swamp

High Fade isn't a band that makes a lot of music fit for Stoner HiVe and on their new single 'Swamp' they start out as the funky rockband they are. But during the guitar solo it veers into heavy psych territory before ending with a damp, sweaty stoner groove. And all of that in less than three and a half minutes. I personally love this song and expect you might too.

Pussy Miel - Don't Know

On their Bandcamp page these French ladies proclaim that Pussy Miel stands for the brute energy of punk, the heavy drowsiness of stoner and the sweet taste of honey. That more or less fits the bill, although the only real stoner song on their new ep 'Bee Raged' is the opening track titled 'Don't Know' - a very good song that shows they're at their best when laying down those catchy stoner grooves with a bit of female flair. Hopefully there'll be more of that in the future. But, to be fair and give them the credit they deserve, the other five songs aren't bad either (pretty good actually). If you like punk noise with a ragged edge from time to time, we highly recommend checking out the entire ep.

Creek Devil - Boot Scootin' in Blood

Fuck, how could we at Stoner HiVe have missed out on Creek Devil's 'Boot Scootin' in Blood' EP way back in October 2025? Because this is some heavy southern stoner metal in the vein of Borgo Pass, Down and Corrosion of Conformity, coming at you like a supercharged bulldozer flattening the Appalachian Mountains in their home state of Tennessee while wielding bottles of illegal liquor and shooting at the hats of innocent bystanders with a Colt .45. Oh yeah, their take on ZZ Top's 'Tush' is damn fine too.

BLKE – Heat

Last year Berlin-based British band BLKE surprised us with their debut EP 'Living Without Expectations' consisting of five noise and psych rock songs skirting the borders of kraut. It's no  surprise they got picked up by the famed Tonzonen Records where you can find the best of the best in the German music scene. 'Heat' is a repetitive, hypnotic, mind-bending psychedelic krautrock masterpiece and the second single from their upcoming full length album, simply titled BLKE, set for release in May 2026.





Bandcamp

The Heavy Eyes - Troublesome Priest

The Heavy Eyes from Memphis, Tennessee have always been kind of an up and down affair. Sometimes playing heavy, fuzzed-out bluesy stoner that bursts with energy, but ever so often missing the mark when the spark isn't quite there. Therefore we were over the moon hearing their brand new single 'Troublesome Priest'. One of their grittiest tunes where the blues growls, the desert fuzz stings and the muddy swamp sucks you in. A burning hot appetiser for their new album 'Focus' (street date: June 12th 2026).

Phantom Logic – Glyphwave

And to round things off, here's something you've all been waiting for without knowing it. Just a few days ago Glory or Death Records announced the debut album from Phantom Logic by releasing the single 'Glyphwave'. Heavy psychedelic rock with a hint of stoner and a freedom that brings to mind the greatest jam bands in the history of mankind. Not strange considering Isaiah Mitchel from Earthless is one of the band members. And to arguably give an even more accurate description of what's on offer here, let's cite the promo poster for the album: this is "beauty and chaos, held together by guitars". We couldn't have said it any better.
