Review : MONSTRO - "Monstro"

Review : MONSTRO – “Monstro”

Rating: 3.5/5

MonstrO stand on the edge of the stoner rock curve, and should they venture to the skies or more deeply explore the earth, you’re wise to keep a squinty, bloodshot eye on their path.

ACROSS TUNDRAS Live Interview on ‘Mind over Metal’

Both Tanner Olson and “Big Jim” Matt Shively are on the horn for this one…as we explore their sounds, we touch on the modern allure of classic Western themes (I reference steampunk and Firefly), and then my favorite part: unearthing the dark parallels between Metal and Bluegrass.

Review : ZOROASTER - "Matador"

Review : ZOROASTER – “Matador”

Rating: 4/5

There are plenty of Metal fans out there that worship Sleep. Many of these same folk also have great reverence for both of the bands birthed from its dissolution: Om and High on Fire. And I never thought I wanted to hear a happy medium between that divide, yet that is exactly what Zoroaster delivers.
