Colour Haze - s/t

[IOfTheStorm]

I saw this band live with Los Natas yesterday, and i immediately bought their same titled album that was released this year.
Its an AMAZING piece of work, something like hippie/kraut oriented heavy rock.
Imagine Kyuss if they had a lethal doze of psychedelic rock within their music and some kraut rock melodies. 100% guitar oriented music, tremendously inspiring melodies and incredible 60s/70s feeling. The hippie aura is present not only in the music but in the lyrics too (its the hippiest album of the 00s probably). Definetally the best non-metal album i heard this year. Recommended to the usual suspects who are into the sounds i mentioned.

Ya they are one of the better bands that make above mentioned sounding music. I would only seek it out if you're into that type of music though.

 

[IOfTheStorm]

Yes you have to appreciate that extraordinary feeling, to like Colour Haze. But the people who appreciate it will all love'em.

 

[Krilons Resa]

Indeed. Smoke a bowl and jam out. Have you heard Los Sounds De Krauts? It's probably better than that s/t you got there.

 

[IOfTheStorm]

Yes i got that one too. I dont know if it is better, since it focuses more on the psychedelic part of the music, and "Colour Haze" balances between psychedelic and heavy rock. It is great of course, but this one here is more mature and the epitome of this sound imo.
Since you are a heavy rock/doom metal fan , you might know MONOLITH (www.monolith.gr) a Greek stoner/doom webzine. Their Album of the year for 2003 was Los Sounds De Krauts.

Hm sounds interesting. Ill drop some acid and get some glow in the dark bracelets and dance the night away.

[NAD]

this is very natural sounding, nothing forced at all. the hippie vibe is strong in this one...

no bullshit guitar rock! nothing to prove, just play them shitz and let it flow. very cool find!

 

[NAD]

[Krilons Resa]

About.Fucking.Time! NAD, seriously. Give that album time to wrap your head around and you will be even more in love.

This is probably album of the year, not to mention that Colour Haze is probably one of the greatest bands of all time- I'm so jealous that you got to see them live.
