Okay i didnt know what to post. Everybody has a blog these days and all the new stuff you want you can find on all the other awesome blogs. So i thought it was a good idea to do a theme. A theme i didnt have to think about being new or coming up with something somebody else has posted on his/her blog.
And i came up with the idea to do a Dutch stoner, art, rock, drone,
Mary Bell (It's All Gouda, Chapter.5) 2008-03-17 14:25:00 <!-- the drop cap -->
This is the soundtrack for your anxiety and depression, fat heavy sounds like a tone of cement burying you alive. Dutch sludge doom right in your face on this debut release. Almost 50 minutes of mud in 5 songs (One of them is a 24 minutes track of opera-sludge with drone passages with noise effects).
Started in 2004 out of the smoking ashes of Sweet Willy Rollbar as a 6 Read more:Chapter

ZEUS was founded in 2003 by singer Jeroen van Koningsbrugge, drummer Paul Jansen and guitarist Roy Jansen. Soon after, bass player Bob Gerritsen completed the band. The objective was clear and simple: to make heavy, groovy rock music the way it was meant since 1969.

Diepens (Geldrop, 1958) is showing four sculptures in combination with a series of watercolors and one video work. Both the watercolors on the wall and the sculptures on the floor have been carried out in many gradations of blue.

Abe Diddy
& The Krautboys was formed in 2003 with the intention to do just one show, but the collaboration between the three musicians went so well they decided to start a band. Somewhere in 2004 they met Blind Lemon Jello (bluesharp) and asked him to join the band.
In August 2005 their first CD "Save Us" was released by U-Lit Records and has received several good reviews. Read more:Chapter

Drummer and multi-instrumentalist Han Bennink was born in Zaandam near Amsterdam in 1942. His first percussion instrument was a kitchen chair. Later his father, an orchestra percussionist, supplied him with a more conventional outfit, but Han never lost his taste for coaxing sounds from unlikely objects he finds backstage at concerts. He is still very fond of playing chairs. Read more:Chapter

Birds Of Maya 2008-03-26 14:47:00 It's been said that Volume One is possibly the best rock release to come out of Philadelphia ever. While low on recording budget, attitude and pretension, Birds
of Maya is high on stolen riffs and an energetic execution seldom seen outside of a Sunday ruling by Seamus McCaffery. Whether they are mangling riffs or stepping way out for fried boogie solos Birds of Maya oozes a dark chunky sludge
Weedeater 2008-03-30 11:05:00 Weedeater is a three-piece combo from North Carolina who specialize in heavy, Southern-grooved sludge-rock. Bass player/vocalist/legend Dixie Collins is an alum of cult-favorites Buzzov.en, maybe more famous for their onstage mayhem than the music they created. Weedeater was the side band while Dixie was in Buzzov.en, and once the band broke up in 1998, Dixie joined up full time with Shep (
Birushanah 2008-04-01 12:53:00 BIRUSHANAH was formed at hometown Osaka by bassist Sougyo and drums John in 2002. Our 1st Cd was released from my own label SMD records. In the last period of Tesuo (before band of sougyo & Iso), Metal percussion was introduced to the band and I was getting interested in the sound, so I decided to use Metal percussion in BIRUSHANAH as well. Also, We use many Japanese traditional scale with
Bretwaldas of Heathen Doom 2008-04-04 06:47:00 The Brits (or should I say the Brets?) are back! The duo has shortened its name, dropping the "Heathen
Doom" part, and refined its style. Indeed, there's less doom on 'Battle Staffs In The Mushroom Woods', but the Heathen part is still there in lyrics, feeling and spirit.
This new album is perhaps a bit less varied than the last one, 'Droner', but in this case, this isn't bad at all. It is as if
Motorpsycho 2008-04-04 05:57:00 Motorpsycho was founded in October 1989 in Trondheim, a small industrial city on the mid-western coast of Norway. The first line-up was Bent Sæther (vocals, bass), Hans Magnus “Snah” Ryan (guitar, vocals) and Kjell Runar “Killer” Jenssen (drums). They came up with their band name while watching a Russ Meyer triple-feature in London. Two of the film titles (“Mudhoney” and “Faster Pussycat”) were
Said the Shark 2008-04-03 10:35:00 One of the finest albums of 2006 came from Danish-Canadian Said the Shark
, who debuted a held back, almost crawling beauty.
The debut avoided the big fireworks and trusted instead that the listener would discover the instrumental details lying under the calm surface. And then there were Maya Saxell's vocals with a sensuality like Cat Power and an intensity like Under Byen's Henriette Sennevaldt.

graduated in 1989 at the Rietveld Academy in Amsterdam as the first artist to receive a BA in computer-graphics. Since 1989 Klein, as a fine artist, held exhibitions in galleries and museums worldwide of monumental photo-panels utilizing diverse digital techniques and styles. His digital "paintings" draw attention with their bright colors and smooth surfaces, but show underneath, a
No title 2008-04-06 05:37:00 Don’t expect a whole lot of Wargasm from Gozu, the new racket featuring the former’s Barry Spillberg.
Apart from a couple of instances of thrashy double bass, this Boston-based four-piece (along with Spillberg, there’s Marc Gaffney on vocals/guitar, Ralph Whittemore on bass, and Doug Sherman on guitar) is more akin to the likes of Queens of the Stone Age.
And for those dismayed by Josh Homme
Irreversible 2008-04-08 10:00:00 The last time I checked in my "Avant-Garde" books, Pelican broke the envelope a long time ago then Isis, Cult Of Luna and Mouth of the Architect were leading the Sludge/Prog/Doom Metal scene right? But what happens to the "underground" subdivision? Now all of the sudden, great (but unknown) bands showed up and said "Hey! We can do things better you know?" and Scald released "Vermiculatus", Ganon
Pink Floyd 2008-04-08 09:59:00 Although there is a tremendous amount of hiss, the sound of the music isn't too bad; unfortunately there are absolutely no vocals. Maybe if you turned it up full blast you might hear some, but you might go deaf first. Given the rarity of Syd-era recordings, this is probably the same recording as on the Starclub Psycho roio. -KARL

San Francisco, CA ... AaronHawks
captures a world that combines illusions and sexuality in settings that are reminiscent of his own childhood meanderings. Old, decrepit hotel rooms and run-down buildings set the stage for his potent observations. His photography saturates the observer in stark environments of loss, loneliness, and pain; yet brilliantly evokes the determined
Seawhores 2008-04-09 10:59:00 <!-- the drop cap -->
Together forever, Adam and Cody have been tinkering, toying with, and manipulating the elements of music for well over ten years. They refer to their musical chemistry set as the Seawhores. Cutting their teeth by touring the basement scene and backwoods bars with such bands as Melvins, Lightning Bolt, Vaz, Wolf Eyes, Pink and Brown, and Phantoms; they have crushed eardrums
Circle (featuring Verde) 2008-04-11 06:13:00 <!-- the drop cap -->
The album seems to divide into two parts. The first four tracks flow together in sort of suite, burbling beautifully and hypnotically...just so so pleasant. No heavy riffs, nothing edgy at all. Then there's a pause, and the remaining two tracks reveal something of a darker, more mysterious sound. Just a bit though, like a bright sunny day edging towards twilight, the Read more:Circle

Not like the Italian bootleg CD "Sab's Furore" this copy of the legendary vinyl bootleg "Killing Yourself To Die" is a really brilliant piece of work. Soundquality as good as on the vinyl and great artwork as you can see leaves only one main difference between the vinyl and the CD: the price!

The 5th dEUS album was recorded at the Vantage Point studio, the band's own studio in Antwerp. The recording & mixing process only took 3 months, a record by dEUS standards.
A song called Smokers Reflect was already announced for the previous album, but didn't make it to the final tracklist.
Here's what Tom had to say about the album when he announced the first details:
Shame Club 2008-04-16 10:40:00 <!-- the drop cap -->
Never mind the bad - there is a shit ton of good< music out there, and unless you sleep no more than 15 minutes a night and have no responsibilities outside of turning up the speakers and getting your rock on, there's no possible way you're going to catch it all. Case in point - apparently Shame Club has been around long enough to release two other albums, but Come On is
