At least we can settle with the prospect of new Kyuss for the time being (or at least a "Kyuss Lives debut"). Think I'd much rather listen to a follow-up to Dopesmoker, though.

True, Shep's guitar doesn't actually play over the riff very much, a lot of it is slow textures and harmonies. I think if you learned them and put them in a new layer on the song it'd give it a fair bit more life. Her voice is loving sick though, I hope she puts it to good use in the future.

Yeah, their first EP had a lot of potential so I'm glad to see them following up with something worthwhile. Anyone else get a big Bong vibe from this album? (the band I mean, although...) Particularly like the first half of track 3 for example. I'm sober at the moment though so I look forward to listening to it tonight  Thanks also for people chiming in on guitar advice, I haven't quite got there with getting a proper amp yet (only just starting to get together with other fellow doomers), more getting the right guitar, pedal and tuning. Think I'm also gonna try out those ultra thick strings too, I usually go heavy but not quite 13-66. The very idea arouses me.

UFOTofuTacoCat posted:What's different about the setup he plays now that minimizes the flop? Higher action? It seems like you would have to have more tension but I don't understand how that works without changing the pitch.  The new YOB album is very good, least surprising news ever ) but a change in tone at least lets it stick out in the discography a bit. I was quite taken aback by it because it seems like YOB's production gets crisper by the album, but after giving it a few listens I'm enjoying it just as much as any other of their albums.I'm seriously so jealous of all you fuckers getting to see them live. Re: the strings. Sorry if this is a stupidly obvious answer but wouldn't simply replacing the string with a heavier gauge increase the tension? I'm not exactly a guitar tech so I'd like to be corrected if not. I put 60-13s in my guitar recently and tuned it into drop Ab (sort of: Ab Eb Ab Db Gb Bb, like a 7-string without the bottom string) but could probably do with a little less flop too.

drat - the entire The Atomic Bitchwax discography for $5 (except for The Local Fuzz, understandably). Anyone listened to Uncle Acid and the Deadbeats yet? Their LP "Blood Lust" is sick.

Saw Karma to Burn last night. Tight, solid, powerful, no bullshit stoner rock. The openers, Gentlemens' Pistols and Black Spiders played surprisingly not poo poo hard rock too. Met a guy who recognised me from roadburn too which is always nice. Glad they got back together in any case!

I also really enjoyed "The Archer and The Owle" which seems to be an EP of Summmit b-sides. I never would've guessed that though, it's really solid.

Talking about going into post-rock territory, you'd definitely like *shels - Sea of the Dying Dhow. Ambient, atmospheric, cinematic but original post-rock with some brutally heavy sludge segments. I wanted to say, though, that their new LP (Plains of the Purple Buffalo) is just stunning. It doesn't fit into this thread really, but people here who are into their post-metal should really check it out.

I've been jamming with a dude who's opening for Ufomammut in his band, so he's gonna try and get me backstage when they play in Bristol - let's hope so. And then there's Yob a week or so after! For the first time in my life. Holy poo poo. That said, you guys really make me want to put Earth 2 on repeat right now. It is a loving amazing record

Yeah I absolutely love the middle section - one of those riffs that's good enough on its own merits that it can be played over and over for 10 minutes. Nice use of delay/looping too. The ending is great, too. Good to hear their roots anyway but Hippie Killer is definitely a superior follow-up

Has anyone checked out Juan Montoya (ex-Torche)'s new band Stallone? Their first EP is on bandcamp and I love it. He was clearly the guy in Torche who was way more into the heavy stoner sound than the other members and it shows, I enjoy it far more than Songs for Singles (if it's fair to compare the two like that).

Been pretty quiet over here in Bristol, but Orange Goblin are playing with Church of Misery, Dopefight and Slabdragger the day before we leave to the Netherlands - and we're planning on going to another gig in Tilburg the day before Roadburn starts, then there's Roadburn itself of course, plus the Afterburner.

I'm staying in the campsite again - I really hope it doesn't rain this time. Still, I slept pretty well with a nice sleeping bag (not to mention being really stoned). Met loads of cool dudes last time, so I'm looking forward to it.

Don't think anyone's posted this yet, new Ufommamut track. It sounds like Ufomammut and it sounds awesome. Really like the new High on Fire on first listen, I've had problems getting into them in the past - never held my attention much apart from the odd standout track.

I'm in Amsterdam at the moment with four friends coffeeshopping it up before Roadburn, getting into Tilburg on Thursday. We got to warm up with an amazing night in Bristol on Sunday - Slabdragger, Dopefight, Grifter, Church of Misery and Orange Goblin, definitely a gig I'll remember. So if you want to say hi at the campsite, as ever I'll be the guy with the beard. (really though, I'm the guy with long curly brown hair and four other stoners, also my friend looks exactly like Ben Ward from Orange Goblin) Can't wait!

Also try Vonn - Victim One (Agony), not listened to it in years but that's a solid hour of loud, sick, evil noises. You really jumped into the deep end with that one!
