Red Fang – Only Ghosts (Relapse)

I first became aware of Red Fang back in around 2010 when I came across the self titled debut via a friends recommendation. They grabbed my interest immediately, carrying off that vibe of doing something new with an old school… Continue Reading →

Teverts – Towards The Red Skies (Subsound)

There are plenty of stoner metal bands around the world with a very common mission statement and, indeed sound. That’s natural. I find it a difficult thing sometimes, because there is often a fine line between influence and imitation and… Continue Reading →

Battalions – Nothing to Lose (S/R)

Sludge from Hull featuring an ex member of Winterfylleth. There are no echoes of Everything But the Girl, Kingmaker (I used to live in Hull) or Black Metal here. This is 27 minutes of fuzzy sludge. Big riffs backed by… Continue Reading →

Chron Goblin – Backwater (Ripple)

Calgary’s Chron Goblin are new to me. Straight up, I’m pretty impressed. Their third album, “Backwater” has got me very interested. The current crop of good old fashioned, riff-fuelled groove rockers is strong. There’s plenty in the music press highlighting… Continue Reading →

PIST – Rhythm & Booze (When Planets Collide)

Formed in 2013 with one aim – to bring the worship of the riff to the masses, the Manchester based four piece PIST have been working overtime. Touring extensively in support of the fantastic “Riffology” EP and being rewarded for… Continue Reading →
