Current Musical Obsession?

[SueNC]

i recently broke down and let myself purchase something new [or at least, new to me].
i'm obsessed with this Canadian [by way of Newfoundland] stoner/doom band, sHeavy.
i've been a fan of theirs since about their second album, 'The Electric Sleep.'

their last album, 'The Machine That Won the War' was released in 2007, but i'd put my cd buying on hold for awhile.
after catching a few vids of the new material on YouTube, i couldnt stand it. i ordered the import version with the live dvd.

i'm enjoying the cd and the dvd. they seem to get heavier with every album and the dvd is near-perfection.

A+++ on this one.

Sue, that band is pretty damn cool. I dunno who, but someone made some weird ass video footage from the movie "The Holy Mountain" for the song Oracle ..Check it!!!

I went back to This Perfect Days stuff. A Swedish pop-band that was big in the 90´s. Good stuff.

good stuff, Damaged.

the sHeavy vid you posted was made by sHeavy's guitarist, Dan. he likes to dabble, evidently. here's another he made and posted to YouTube. it's called 'Demon Soldiers,' from the latest album:

Well there you go! You learn something new everyday. I didn't know that video "Oracle" was made by their guitarist. But that video you posted seems pretty weird too, with all those Ninja's n' shit





Not sure how much you like Doom metal Sue, but the band High On Fire from Cali is an all time favourite (yes, we spell it with a U here ) of mine.


No doubt you've heard of them already........??

heard of 'em.
love 'em.

ever hear of OM?

here's another from the last sHeavy album [Dan posted this one, too].

Oh yeah, OM is ment to be Al Cisernos's project after the band Sleep, and Matt pike (also from Sleep) went on a formed High on fire.

I'm sure i got that right..




But High on fire and sHeavy are the two main stoner/doom bands i tend to like most out of what you posted here. I've been a long time fan of Kyuss, and IMO sHeavy are the next best thing.

i LOVE Kyuss!!
sHeavy actually started out doing Kyuss covers, so it's cool you made the comparison.

Oh cool, I didn't know that. They probably done a damn good job of their covers too.



How about Clutch, do you like Clutch Sue?

This good quality live footage was actually done in your state, NC.

i love Clutch. if that was shot in NC there's a good chance i was out in the crowd somewhere.

 

[Oblivious Maximus]

Sleep, Om, High on Fire, fucking CLUTCH all rule.

I've been listening to the Melvins a ton latley. Always been a fan but their records have been in my player a lot the last few weeks.

 

[Damaged71]

It's live somewhere in Kill Devil Hills, NC. (If that's really such a place there? ) 2004.


Well, you have pretty good taste in music Sue

Eyehategod is another band I have been playing a lot lately also. I don't think they have released one bad album yet (IMO)

I hope Mike Williams can keep himself out of trouble long enough, to be able to release something else new with the band.

 

[ZeeZooZum]

I've been on a old-school prog-rock kick. Why? I am not really sure.

But, I've listened to

Gentle Giant- Free Hand
Yes- Relayer
King Crimson- Starless and Bible Black

a whole bunch lately.

One of my favorite bands. Mike's off dope, has been for quite a while and is keeping very busy. His side band Outlaw Order just released their debut "Dragging Down the Enforcer" recently and it's great.

Oh yeah! I used to have a lot of their early stuff on vinyl. I should download the first few albums. It's been awhile.

Yeah, fuckin great band! At one point it seemed when ever Michael had nothing to do music wise, he ended up getting in to trouble with drugs & the law in general.

Good to know he's keeping clean! And yeah, I got Outlaw Order's first EP Legalize Crime, just not the new album. But I do know where to get myself a copy


Arson Anthem with Phil Anselmo, some guy (his name escapes me..) & Hank III had been keeping him busy at one point too.
