Sons of Kings - 2012 - Emersion


Atmospheric psychedelic post-rock from Finland

"Emersion draws thick grey lines between borders of alternative music. Meditative psychedelia and spacey soundscapes are both present on this new album which continues the journey of Sons of Kings. The creation is served in two parts, and with even more low frequencies with additional bass player, which renders the original trio into a quartet. The ambitious plan behind Emersion is to connect the dots between soundtrack-like atmospheres, non-typical progressions, kraut-continuity, stoner-fuzz, and post rock mentality. The outcome is, at least, an alternative way to approach the music."

Peruvian spacerockers are back !



Mecanica Celeste is the third official recording by South American space rockers Serpentina Satelite. After the success of their last raved about album Nothing to Say, the band returned to their studio in Peru to record this more ambitious and accomplished sounding follow-up.
The album recalls all the great psychedelic bands from the past forty years, from the 70’s bands like Ash Ra Tempel, Amon Düül II and Hawkwind; through to 80’s bands like Monster Magnet (particularly TAB era) and Loop and today's contemporary cosmic warlords like Eternal Tapestry, White Hills and Magic Lantern.
Mecanica Celeste is a conceptually unique take on psychedelia, conceived by manipulating traditional religious songs, text ideology and poetry with heavy fuzz guitars, swirling drones, spaced out wah solos, motorik rhythms and delayed vocals, to create a head melting experience of an album which climaxes with the proto metal riffs of track Sendero, giving the band a fresh sounding approach to the well trod grounds of space rock: SERPENTINA SATELITE TRIED TO GET TO HEAVEN BUT ENDED UP IN SPACE!

Stoned Bikers in Space


Black Space Riders resurrect the ancient gods! Earthbound: Boots covered with dirt! Heavenly insane: heads up in space! Fuzz-guitars meet psychedelic space-echoes, between very slow and very fast, between driving and dragging.
The self-titled debut was recorded and produced during heavy snowfalls and arctic frost in the beginning of 2010 at “die Tonmeisterei” in Oldenburg (Germany). A full-blown, warm … spacious … open sounding recording with many details and a big love for vintage equipment resulting in a one-hour-trip through black and infinite space … a black book of cosmic salvation … 13 hypnotic, heavy, guitar-driven songs between metal, doom, space-, psychedelic- and stoner-ROCK: space-doom, baby!

Leaden Fumes Of Pleasure

Phased – hailed as the Hawkwind of doom by some, dissed as too-shorthaired-to-rock by others – play some weird sort of psychedelic and heavy rock. It is neither straight doom, nor straight space-rock. When their wall of sound hits the desert, the sand is blown to the sea, only to be drowned in a maelstrom of monstrous proportions. Phased’s is a razzmatazz of a style. It can be drawn out, even phlegmatic; other times it is spacey and sounds as if it was induced by fumes of pleasure; mostly it is just dark and metallic, as Phased playfully avoid falling into the various traps of such genres as stoner- and space-rock, doom and kraut, punk and…
