Mammoth Weed Wizard Bastard- The Harvest

I’ve always liked Mammoth Weed Wizard Bastard. I’ve always respected them, listened to them, and added them to a few playlists. But I could never get past the silly name. No matter how ‘thru the veil’ Jessica’s singing sounded, how it gave me a rush and a tingle, they just didn’t win me over the […]

newbie and relationship…

So, I have this girlfriend. Which seems like a trite way to put it, doesn’t really describe the relationship we’re developing. Not only is she open to Stoner/Doom/Heavy Psych and all the underground stuff I dig, but she’s started her own blog. That’s just how she rolls: it’s not so much that I’m interested in […]

First Newbie Doomer Post

So, while I’m slacking off and moving to another city, my girlfriend has decided to up and start her own blog! Check it out… Doom music gets a bad reputation. I included have judged them in the past to be headbanging Neanderthals who scream lyrics and just rock out to the … First Newbie Doomer […]

Ufomammut – Fenice

Not my post, but I love this guys writing. I hope you do, too! With all the many different forms of psychedelia that have cropped up over the decades, it has to be its heavier forms that have got to be some of … Ufomammut – Fenice

Mid-week quickie: Fostermother, the ocean

Is The Ocean by Fostermother the best album so far this year, a masterpiece destined to be a classic? Probably not. It’s just a very good album. That’s some of what sets it apart: it’s an album. Not a concept per se, but a collection of songs with a common theme. I think that theme […]

Spaceslug – Leftovers

To be clear, I didn’t write this. Hope you don’t mind the share… The whole realm of heavy psych, heavy rock, or whatever it is you want to call it has really been experiencing a renaissance that started not even a … Spaceslug – Leftovers

Surprise Quickie: Black Moon Mother

Hey all. This week I came across this album on Youtube, in my ‘recommended’ section. I passed over it quickly, and then went right back to it. First, I love the name of the band. I’m sucker for things dark and witchy. The album name and cover are awesome as well. https://blackmoonmother.bandcamp.com/album/illusions-under-the-sun I’ve listened only […]

Surprise Quickie of Week

So, my job has me driving all over the place, up to 3 hours at a shot. Usually, I just put on an Audio Book and let it play, but it’s also a chance to listen to some new stuff off Bandcamp and Tidal, my streaming source of choice. This week was kinda blah. I […]

Masamune and Muramasa Turned to Stone vol. 2

I could never be a music reviewer. I love to listen to music, I love to think about music, I like to perform music, and I love talking about music. But music reviewing? Not likely. I greatly admire many reviewers, some of who’s opinion matches mine almost perfectly. Others, especially certain upset heavy metal dudes, […]

Trying to find my voice

The morning after the election of Donald J Trump remains one of the worst my worst mornings in recent times. The sheer level of anger I felt was frightening, both to myself and my partner who I was with at the time. The one constant image in my head was inspired by Michael Moore’s program […]
