Vinum Sabbatum - Songs From The Convent Album Cover

The self-released debut E.P. by Finnish retro rockers. The name "Vinum Sabbatum" can be a little bit misleading, because this is more Atomic Rooster than Black Sabath. But still, Vinum Sabbatum is a bloody great traditional doom metal act.

Chronic Herbal Influence - Chronic Herbal Influence Demo Album Cover

Check out this awesome 4 track Demo/EP. Psychedelic stoner rock from Lamia, Greece.

Chronic Herbal Influence.. came together as a trio, back in the first daze of 2005. The ..Influence.. was there, the ..Herbs.. up in the air, and then there were times for ..Chronic.. share. Long nights, green lights & jamming since the crab bites! After two years of gigs in many venues around the country, ..CHI.. decided to record a 4-track Demo. At the moment, we've got this material recorded. Still waiting for the circumstances to join us, so that we can join ourselves & let the influence come, to you... - myspace

Stonerwitch - Ojos Del Salado Album Cover

Ok, I think it's time for some stoner rock, since this is Stoner Mountain :). Great forgotten, underground pschydelic stoner rock from Buenos Aires, Argentina. Don't be fooled by the lame cover. It's a top notch album.

The group first evolved when vocalist / guitarist Fernando Gigliotti placed ads for available musicians to form a band, duly enrolling drummer Sebastián Romani and bassist Rodrigo Teixido. This trio soon after got down to practicalities and recorded the debut album 'Ojos Del Salado', released in February of 2000, a true homegrown product being recorded in Gigliotti and Romani's bedrooms.

A second album 'Yerba Del Diablo' was delivered in 2001. A limited release of rarities, 'Besides' including a version of THE BEATLES 'Tomorrow Never Knows', arrived in May 2002. - rockdetector.com

SHUT EYE - Soft For Sight Album Cover

Check out this guys. Great noise rock/shoegaze drone. I love this EP.

The album that lies before you is the debut release from amplifier-worshiping, world-weary riff rats Shut Eye. Born of the barren, southern california womb that is the Inland Empire (san bernardino, colton, calimesa and other such shitholes), Soft for Sight is a 5 song tribute to boredom, substance abuse, and unattractive-yet-refreshingly-attainable women. So download, listen, and drop out of life with beer in hand.

Blue Explosion: Tribute To Blue Cheer Album Cover

An excellent tribute to a great band, the mighty Blue Cheer.

Blue Cheer was an American rock band that initially performed and recorded in the late 1960s and early 1970s and was sporadically active until 2009. Based in San Francisco, Blue Cheer played in a psychedelic blues-rock style, and is also credited as being pioneers of heavy metal (their cover of "Summertime Blues" is sometimes cited as the first in the genre), punk rock, stoner rock, doom metal, experimental rock, and grunge. According to Tim Hills in his book, The Many Lives of the Crystal Ballroom, "Blue Cheer was the epitome of San Francisco psychedelia." Jim Morrison of The Doors called the group "The single most powerful band I've ever seen. - wikipedia

Otis Reaper - Otis Reaper Album Cover

Cassette EP from sludge/doom metal act Otis Reaper.

Hailing from the doomed wastelands of Tennessee, Otis Reaper plays hard rock and punk tinged cro-magnon metal harkening back to the days of yore. Sludgy, neanderthal doom riffs collide with nwobhm tinged melodies, thrashing drums and guttural, blackened vocals w/lyrics about intergalactic time travel, misanthropy, and alcohol.
