Domovoyd - Oh Sensibility
Psychedelic Stoner Metal
Catchy grooves and trippy landscapes galore, the first full release from this Finnish four piece is definitely one of the better stoner efforts of 2013, as well as one of the best debuts. Has a very "lazy floating" type of feeling at many points, creating an atmosphere that's quite easy to fall back and get lost in. If that and the fantastic album art don't win you over, I don't know what will.
Turn on, tune in, drop out.

Blodsvept North America 2013, and Finntroll sure knows how to pick their support bands for this epic tour. Well, they didn't pick, but rather their booker, but nevertheless, the package worked on so many levels, with Metsatöll and Blackguard in tow. (by D.T. Metal) Read more ›› |

Helevorn - Forthcoming Displeasures (2010)
Helevorn's Forthcoming Displeasures has left me with a permanent expression of delicate horror, as if I am reaching for the last, receding glimpses of pure air left to breathe on our forgotten planet. There is a thick, personal focus here, and a balance of inner struggle and angering frustrations with a silent vision of the haunting sadness that has seemingly engulfed everyone else's eyes. Helevorn has offered an album for those who knowingly or unknowingly mourn for humanity and for each...

Tool
In 1993,Tool was scheduled to play at the Garden Pavilion in Hollywood but learned at the last minute that the Garden Pavilion belonged to L. Ron Hubbard's Church of Scientology, which was perceived as a clash with "the band's ethics about how a person should not follow a belief system that constricts their development as a human being". Keenan "spent most of the show baa-ing like a sheep at the audience".
