Widowland - Widowland (2011)

02. Kaleidoscope 6:38
03. Labyrinth 9:07
04. Volcano 5:46
05. Myth 5:33
06. Orthodox 5:01

Another excelent album for the new year. The whole album is awsome, combining the doom and stoner parts perfectly with some other heavy moments (Maiden´s spirit prowling around). It has a sort of swedish style as bands as Witchcraft, but they come from Russia! Really good discovery, don´t let it go!

Rock´n´roll from Norway with people of Chrome Division. What we get here? hard rock in norwegian style, it means, a dirty garage rock with a punk spirit, like Peter Pan SpeedRock, Chrome Division, Motörhead... an energetic record full of epic chorus! Very good stuff.

03. On the Prowl

Old School stuff! From thrash  metal to black or hardcore sonirities, following the path of the latests works of Darkthrone, Dishammer, etc. Every song sounds diferent, and this fact makes this album very easy to listen.  Good compositions, dirty production and bad attitude.

Magnific third album of these peruan doomers. Down-tempo sonorities but with a little touch of psychedelia and ethnic parts. It´s worth to point out too the excellent work of the guitars, specially in the solo parts. If you like Reino Ermitaño and similar bands, you ´ll enjoy this album.

*sorry, I cannot find videos for that record.

 An outstanding work of southern soul, with the gorgeous voice of Mavis Staples and the excellent work at the guitars of Ry Cooder (Captain Beefheart, Taj Mahal, Rolling Stones...). Political lyrics for an american roots music with tones of feeling, and this essential touch of southern sound. Don´t be afraid, open your mind, and enjoy this fantastic record.
