review

Witchrider - Metamorph

September 15, 2025

Metalheads may appreciate it, especially those into Stoner and Psych; Rock fans will have zero reasons to object and plenty of reasons to approve.

review

Wucan - Axioms

September 2, 2025

WUCAN takes some twists and turns with “Axioms” that might throw some listeners off, but the band stays true to their vision and refuses to stand still.

review

Lommi - 667788

August 27, 2025

A fine mix of influences of Rock 'n' Roll, Hard Rock, Metal and more can be found here! Dive in!

review

Black Moon Cult – Ophidian Future (The Children of Yig)

August 26, 2025

Black Moon Cult’s "Ophidian Future (The Children of Yig)" is a trip well worth the price of admission.

review

Aganoor – Doomerism

August 17, 2025

It's hard to believe this is the first album from AGANOOR—they sound like seasoned veterans of the forever metal psychic wars.

review

Rise Of The Wood - Discharge

August 14, 2025

Let me start off with a bit of history first. In 2015 in the province of South Holland in the Netherlands a group of musicians got together and started a new band, which they baptised as RISE OF THE WOOD. And yes, if you are of a dirty mind, that could be exactly why this name was chosen.

review

Solace - Further

August 11, 2025

If “Further” were to drop today as a brand-new album it would undoubtedly be heralded as one of best albums of 2025. As reissue, it could still hold that honor.

review

Naevus – Back Home

August 4, 2025

“Back Home” is a helluva album by a helluva a band. A must-have for Stoner Doom fans.

review

Lorquin’s Admiral - Lorquin’s Admiral

July 14, 2025

LORQUIN’S ADMIRIAL is notable for its musicianship and Dawn Brown’s vocals. There’s some nice chemistry there.

review

Gurnslinger - Who Killed the World?

July 10, 2025

This quartet mix a lot of musical influences in a coherent and excellent form. And the result is this release.

review

Rainbow Bridge – Soundtrack of a Silent Land

June 23, 2025

On balance, “Soundtrack of a Silent Land” is a well-crafted piece of Stoner Psych Rock. If exploratory jam tracks are your thing, this is a good album to check out.

review

Domkraft - Domkraft

June 9, 2025

DOMKRAFT, “Doomkraft.” If you missed their debut in 2015, you get a second chance in 2025. Nothing like being ten years late for the party . . . but in the metalsphere there never really is such a thing as being too late.

review

Spider Kitten – The Truth is Caustic to Love

June 9, 2025

What the hell is a spider kitten? And if you saw one, would you try to pick it up or run in abject horror? Like its namesake, SPIDER KITTEN is a hard band to get into and a hard band to walk away from.

review

Fuzzriders – I Like It

May 18, 2025

Track-by-track “I Like It” is consistently good. In fact, I quite like it.

review

Drunken Crocodiles - Aegony

April 14, 2025

“Aegony” isn’t for everyone . . . but isn’t that the way it is with all metal? Ironically, DRUNKEN CROCODILE is a thinking man’s sludge offering up narratives to ponder and questions to examine.

review

Caboose - Left For Dust

April 8, 2025

What I do have to mention is that if you would like a comparison to any of the earlier bands playing Stoner Rock/Metal you will undoubtedly come across the names of TROUBLE and MONSTER MAGNET, and although the young guns of CABOOSE aren’t anywhere near the quality of those bands (yet?), they have that really rough and ready sound that also fits the peers mentioned.

review

Desert Smoke – Desert Smoke

April 7, 2025

DESERT SMOKE, “Desert Smoke,” with or without the apostrophe, scores high on the Metal Temple scales. Well worth the time to check out.

review

Ice Howl - Reborn & ReForged

March 14, 2025

A very good Doom Metal/NWOTHM release, indeed.

review

Maw – The Humble Collapse

February 11, 2025

The Humble Collapse by MAW is clearly not a Metal album, but what it lacks in volume and viscera it makes up in innovation and trippiness. Definitely worth a few spins, this one.

review

Weapon of Pride - Beneath the Surface

January 31, 2025

This mix between Groove Metal with Stoner Metal/Rock influences is a very good idea. Hear it!

review

Sullest - Sullest

January 31, 2025

Maybe this North American Punk Rock quartet is opnening new ways into the genre. Listen to their music!

review

Ghostwound - Ghostwound

December 21, 2024

“Ghostwound” is a psychedelic trip down a wandering road which somehow winds back on itself, in the end depositing you where you left off and enticing you to head out yet again.

review

Big Muff Parade - π (Pi)

November 25, 2024

Smart arrangements, fucktons of fuzz groove, and even a splash of Prog sophistication. Gotta love this band, gotta love this album.

review

Bird’s View - House of Commando

November 21, 2024

If you thought that Alternative Rock was dead, hear to this release and think again.

review

Veuve - Pole

November 18, 2024

“Pole” is one of those albums that somehow presents itself differently every time you listen to it. And if it strikes you like it did me, then you’ll be listening to it a lot.

review

Arkon - Arkon

November 4, 2024

This band is awesome, and I am praying to the Sardanian gods of lore that they stay on course but speed things up a bit—in the studio, I mean—because I can’t wait another four years to hear another album from these bad asses.

review

Thunderbird Divine - Little Wars

October 23, 2024

For addicted on Stoner Rock/Metal tendencies, this album will have a deep appeal.

review

Coma Hole – Hand of Severance

October 21, 2024

COMA HOLE is reminiscent of HEAVY TEMPLE and RUBY THE HATCHET and carries on the great tradition of Northeastern Stoner/Doom bands. “Hand of Severance” is a solid debut full-length.

review

Elephant Tree – Handful of Ten

October 14, 2024

“Handful of Ten” differs from the usual oddities collection in that it offers old, variant, and new tracks, taking a look back, ahead, and askance. You might call it a 360 or even Panavision album, giving a wider perspective of this intriguing band we call ELEPHANT TREE.

review

Psychlona – Warped Vision

October 5, 2024

“Warped Vision” is more mellow that PSYCHLONA’s previous releases, leaning more into Psych than the Stoner groove. It shows a certain level of maturity and, when needed, well enough grit.

review

Brain Pain - The Magazine

October 3, 2024

A fine Alternative Rock Italian act at its prime.

review

Sidewinder - Talons

September 23, 2024

SIDEWINDER’s sophomore album, “Talons,” like the band’s namesake, is a killer. I want to say something quirky here about getting your ‘talons’ into it, but that might be too much, so I’ll just leave it at a ‘strongly recommended’ and walk out with my dignity.

review

Moloema - Unpredictable

September 22, 2024

"Unpredictable" lives up to its name with tracks that take listeners on a journey that is anything but predictable.

review

Huanastone - Son of Juno

September 19, 2024

Stoner Rock in a high level is what is heard on this album.

review

Drive By Wire - Time Horizon

August 29, 2024

This is a very good and hooking Stoner Rock/Hard Rock release.

review

Cleen - Excursion

August 29, 2024

This is a fine "first coming" for this Stoner Metal/Rock trio.
