Stoner HiVe’s Top 10 Most Listened To Albums Last Month…


Stoner HiVe’s
Top 10 Most Listened To Albums Last Month…


There’s a new Doom Chart on the horizon. Are you ready for that? I think one or two of the ones mentioned here might make it? Three of the TOP 10 above would also make it to the Most Listened to albums of Last Week. Cause Chelsea Wolfe’s new album Birth Of Violence keeps getting spun. As well as the awesome Immanent Fire record by Emily Jane White. Who, for the Dutch freaks out there is currently touring the Netherlands. She will play Cacaofabriek, Helmond tomorrow for instance. And the album accompanies my current reading material as if they were made for eachother: The Uninhabitable Earth by David Wallace-Wells. And the other is Solace and their The Brink album, out through Blues Funeral Recordings. Their sounds keeps moving back into time when all the heavy goodness started and The Brink brings their stoner metal, doom twist and old school atmosphere in pure glowing brilliance. It will give you goosebumps and make you feel hot and cold all over! Classic in every sense of the word!  Two others that aren’t on this last but were often listened to last week were Tainted Lady and their Sounds Like Freedom-Feels Like War release and Gourrama by The Shattered Mine Machine. Both definitely need your ears! And the HiVe needs your help! Did you see the first post about the Stoner HiVe Top 20 Countdown of 2019 go up? If not, go read it, if so, get cracking on your list of favorite albums and send it to us before December 12! (Send it HERE!) And hey, this year all the sent in lists also compete for a little lottery giveaway thingy… So… Check’m out… Check’m all out!

Top 5 artists listened to last week…


Just a quick Top 5! Cause we’ve got loads of work to do and place to be. Unfortunately! But hey, you all know the deal and it’s been like this for a while now. But luckily we’ve got a mention of the new Samowa by Kyle / Shastabeast to really jumpstart the week! It will go up immediately after this simple yet very tight Top 5 of Most Listened to Artists Last Week… Have a good one y’all!

Whiskey Myers – Whiskey Myers


Whiskey Myers – Whiskey Myers
Universal/Spinefarm – 2019
Rock, Americana, Country, Blues, Southern
Rated: ****

Six-piece outfit Whiskey Myers sounds like the outlaws from the American badlands we all love. One can immediately and very easily assume this looking through the song titles. And as soon as the music starts; you know you were right. It’s their fifth album and by God, have these good ol’ boys been crafting their skills to an unholy degree. Filled to the rim with the very best of everything that those southern American states have to offer. Hard rock with a country twang! Swampy rock, roots rock, smoky tunes, soulful tunes! They’ve got it all. And to show you that these cats can do so much they also go into the sentimental regions. And when a band like this goes into the tear jerk territory it might make you cringe, not so when Whiskey Myers does it! You intentionally go back to those and even more so to all those tracks featuring the female background choirs. Holy hell! Just go enjoy the big gesture track Glitter Ain’t Gold and hear what we mean. Indeed, if you didn’t already wanted to leave the city, this album will definitely make you want to move out to the country… Buy a farm… Poor a bourbon, practice the pedal steel and howl at the moon…
