I don't think I've seen Stoned Jesus posted yet. They're a really awesome stoner/psychedelic/doom band from the Ukraine. They have both of their albums up on Bandcamp. Seven Thunders Roar is definitely the album to check out, with the highlight being I'm The Mountain. They have kind of a rustic woodsy quality to their music, if that makes any sense. The cover art for the album is actually a pretty good indication of how they sound:

I really like the cover art and this sounds cool. Aside from Neurosis, are there any albums we're still waiting for? I need even more High on Fire/Sleep-esque monumental riffs in my life. I listened to Dopesmoker in the dark the other night, and now I am hooked. Neurosis will surely deliver a fantastic album, but not those sort of riffs

Toner Low are a great band for gigantic riffs, they sound like a kinda sped-up version of Dopesmoker. Just realised I need to check out Bong's latest work, too.

A Colour Haze question: Often times in you can hear a tapping sound that usually just sounds like the guitar pick hitting a pickup. I don't know what it actually is though as sometimes it doesn't seem to fit with the guitar rhythm like I would expect. What's that sound? Here's an example: http://www.youtube.com/watch?feature=player_detailpage&v=HJhkYePujR0#t=56s

lordblytzkrieg posted:It sounds like someone lightly tapping a clave to me. That was my other guess but it's just not a thing I've ever really heard anyone do before: Clave taps mimicking the guitar rhythm on multitple albums. At first I thought maybe the drummer was doing it during his downtime but those things are in there when he doesn't have time for them. It's just kind of weird choice. MORE CLAVE!

Quantum of Phallus posted:Dunno, he posts in the ambient drone thread in Entertainment Weakly about HateBasement, which is one of the dudes from BR if I recall. Also true, we did a noise split cassette with cf (from EW) and my roommate.

muike posted:Just sounds like clacky pick attack. It's just the pick hitting the strings, it's accentuated due to how the riff is played, though. Can you explain a little more? I play guitar and I'm old and I don't see how you make sounds like that by just hitting the string with a pick. A pick being held is deadened by your fingers. It seems too loud to be a pick unless the pickup is picking the sound up and it's getting amplified a great deal which I guess could be happening. I just find it odd. It makes sense for it to be the pick but I don't understand how it's happening because picks and strings don't make sounds like that in my experience.

Like I said, it can be accentuated due to how you pick the string, how you hold the pick, your EQ, the gain settings, any possible overdrive you're running. I don't think I can give you any youtube examples, but try holding a larger pick, like a fender heavy or something, hold the pick nice and loose, pick lightly, turn up the gain and turn down your volume a bit, and pick towards the neck. You notice that sometimes when the guitar player really digs in on that track the clacking stops a bit. It's all about pick dynamics.

You were totally right. Playing up on the neck with a shallow pick angle makes that sound. Guitar doesn't even need to be amplified. It seems like it depends on whether the string that is getting picked is already vibrating or not. The sound is actually the string slapping against the pick right before the pick sounds the string again. Which explains why it's not present on every note when it is happening. Thanks for explaining that.

Stefan is a master of dynamics, just like the rest of CH. I think I've read that he plugs straight into his massive wall of amps, getting all his tones by adjusting the volume on his guitar or by using a volume pedal. The Guild Starfire that he uses is a big part of his sound as well. Haggatha IV is out on Bandcamp, and it's a nasty, grimy beast. I can't believe they've kept a 17 minute track up their sleeves for this long.

A buddy of mine is currently on the road with Weedeater. Last night in San Francisco he filled in on drums due to some drama:Keith Kirkum (former?) Weedeater drummer on Facebook posted:dixie had a hissy fit & kept pushing me to the point that I snapped & started beating on him then shep pulled me off & accidently I tore my rotator cuff in my shoulder. So I quit the band & flew home to be w my pregnant wife witch is where I should have been in the first place. I don't have time to deal with dixie's drunken bullshit anymore.

I reckon I'm about 1 song in and it seems promising so far.

He (and the rest of Colour Haze) have a great sense of dynamics, composition, and ensemble playing that to be frank a lot of metal and rock bands simply don't grasp. There's an interview with him up about the recording of the new album on The Obelisk that is a good read: http://theobelisk.net/obelisk/2012/10/05/colour-haze-she-said-interview-with-stefan-koglek/ Also, if anyone here hasn't tracked down Unida's unreleased album The Great Divide, you should get on that. It's honestly some of John Garcia's best work.

New Neurosis has leaked. Dunno if this is old news or not. On the funeral doom front, Aldebaran has a new album that is pretty good. Sounds a lot like Mournful Congregation, way more than I remember them sounding: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_mj898PV82w

Thanks for explaining that. Depending on how sensitive/high your pickups are, you can make the clickety clack sound by touching/tapping your pick on the pickup while you pluck.  I just found this out a few days ago on the Hagstrom III I got last month; the position of the middle pickup on the guitar in relation to where I normally situate my hand makes it easy to get that clickety clack sound.

Seriously give this a listen if you haven't already It's pretty good live too (I was standing just to the right of the camera). I was hoping to pick up the LP at that show, but the band had them all shipped to Europe for their tour. They came back empty handed, so now I have to wait for the next pressing. It's either that, or order one from the label in Montreal, which seems goofy given that I live in the same city the band does. Speaking of good bands from Vancouver- I've seen Tobeatic play a few really good shows recently. Its members are veterans of numerous local heavy/crusty projects (including the multi-drummer sludge madness that is Rotting Hills, but this is some good old spacy hard rock. The tune I linked has some nice riffs once the whole band kicks in.

It reminds me of The Eye of Every Storm. I don't like it. The band still loves having those loud, repetitive outros and it's getting mad played out by now. There are moments of brilliance but overall the album feels stale.
