The sheep are outsmarting the wolves...

With all that's going on on the interwebs lately, Megaupload being taken down and various other sites going under by Hackers. Here's a Band that stands tall above many others. Ladies and Gentlemen, Pater Nembrot.

"After learning that the American Government has just closed MEGAUPLOAD for copyright infringement and that there is no queue in the closure of various mediafire, torrentz us internet-nauti and fanta internettuali what can we do? If you like, download our FREE disc, the password is "thegreatgiginthesky". You will not be the Beatles ' White Album but is everything for us. The music is not what you sell in the Apple store or one that only buy on Amazon. Probably the music that makes culture is that once you copied on cassette, they tolerate even burned CDs, but with titles and credits handwritten on cardboard. Without this it will survive nor original CDs, nor the reviving Vinyl format. Closed the politics, viva sharing sincere."

I thought this to be pretty cool, although maybe not for everybody. Minimal Psychedelics, (Guitar, & keys) dropped over minimal beats. Very laid back and lazy which makes it very listenable.

Horns Up!

Here's a great look into the Mexican Stoner Rock scene created by Stoner Rock Mexico. They have 16 songs, all for FREE download by some of the most stunning Bands Mexico has to offer.

"We know stoner rock has been around for decades, with its deafening and thick riffs rocking the face of the

earth. Mexico has not been free of its spell and has given birth and nurtured several bands through the years,
nevertheless, they never had any media exclusively dedicated to the Mexico-made stoner rock, which would
gather the bands and get them to their fans.

Due to Ivan Nieblas initiative, we’ve created the first Mexican stoner virtual community, with aims to
congregate and promote all those bands spread around the country and who doesn’t have a place to meet
with their genre’s peers and allies. A the same time, we pretend to show their work to the Mexican
stonerheads, with up-to-date info of the bands and hopefully build a solid Mexican stoner scene and loudly
rise our voice in the worldwide stoner scene.

This is a site for the right bands to get to the right people.
This is not your average rock scene.
Their rock is not our rock.
We like it heavy and we like it louder.
Are you with us? This is the place for you.
We do this because we care about music.
We do this because we deserve our own place.
You deserve this music.
Let’s build this together."

Here's a really cool Album of Post-Whatever tunes from the Band The Atomic Bomb Audition. Some points are Doomy and very low ended while others are spacey with layers of atmosphere. It's a FREE download so be sure to check it out.


"This album is a collection of material both new and old, with original compositions as well as covers dear to us.
The enclosed material represents all phases of the band:
All is Full of Love was first partially arranged in 2006 as a closing to "The Ideologue" during the Eleven Theatres era;
Plainsong was recorded in 2008 during the Light Will Remain sessions;
Echoes was recorded during the Roots Into The See sessions;
Laura's Theme harkens back to 2007 when we would play part of the Twin Peaks Theme at the beginning of shows and was then fully arranged in 2010 while writing two still unrecorded original songs;
and three extemporizations written in honor of patrons to our Roots Into The See pressing.
We present this free of charge as a gift to you (though donations are welcome). Let it be a preamble to more good things on the horizon. Cheers."

"After spending the last two years locked up in a tiny attic above a garage in barren upstate NY writing and recording, To Hell and Back has returned with 10 songs of epic and crushing rock'n'roll! "Will We Be Torn Apart" see the band pushing past their usual modus operandi to create their most intense and diverse release to date. Having been compared to an unusual range of bands like Sheer Terror, Easy Action, Thin Lizzy, Turbonegro, Karp, Venom, Motorhead, Queens Of The Stone Age, Rose Tattoo, Tight Bros from Way Back When, and others, To Hell and Back does their best to forge their own original and destructive path through the world of heavy music.10 songs, 40 plus minutes of powerful noise!"

Blackened Crusty Doom.

"Concealed from the view of the moribund mass of humanity, hidden in the darkness of the gates of Hell, waiting to spread the evil sound of the extermination of life is the most powerful and misanthropic force. Fed by hatred, loudness and alcohol, the four headed monster of Apocalypse will destroy everything on its way with its unwavering wall of sound. Like the scream of Satan himself the fury of the troopers of doom is deafening, intoxicating and damned addicting.
Feel the ethylic vapor impregnating the audience, be conquered by the slow devastating groove, chant the name of Lucifer, dance with us on heavy riffing and worship the soundtrack of the end of days.
CULT OF OCCULT plays for black masses, sacrifices, satanic rituals, dark ceremonies and unholy meetings."
