Karma To Burn – Arch Stanton (Faba/Deepdive Records)

Purple Hill Witch – S/T (Church Within)

Y’know now I think about it I’m sure Purple Hill Witch was the answer I got when I did a ‘What Is Your Stoner band name’ internet quiz. Ahem. Anyway: Hailing from Oslo, and either named after a mound covered… Continue Reading →
