Die US-amerikanischen Psychedelic-Rocker Year Long Disaster haben jetzt ein Video zur ihrer neuen Single „Show Me Your Teeth“ vorgelegt. Der Song stammt von „ Black Magic: All Mysteries Revealed “, dem aktuellen Album des Trios. Zu Year Long Disaster gibt es einige interessante Facts: Etwa, dass Sänger und Gitarrist Daniel Davies der Sohn von The Kinks -Legende Dave Davies ist. Außerdem lernten er und Bassist Rich Mullins sich in einem Drogenentzug kennen, bevor sie 2004 Drummer Brad Hergreaves trafen, welcher schließlich die Band komplettierte. Mit „Black Magic: All Mysteries Revealed“ ist im März das zweite Album der Jungs aus L.A. erschienen ...

Stoner Rock pioneers Karma To Burn are reunited and will release their brand new album "Appalachian Incantation" next week. To celebrate we asked bassist Rich Mullins to tell us about the first single "Waiting On The Western World".

West Virginia’s KARMA TO BURN disbanded in 2002, due to a falling out between long-time band members Rich Mullins and William Mecum. The breakup was a result of Mullins’ excessive use of drugs. Mullins then spent time in SPEEDEALER and with Los Angeles based band YEAR LONG DISASTER. After a seven year absence, KARMA TO BURN [...]

Two former alcoholics/junkies and a pick-up drummer. That's how LA trio Yera Long Disaster started out. For their Black Magic; All Mysteries Revealed album they picked up The Master and Margarita , the Russian cult novel by Mikhail Bulgakov and the result is slightly more literate version of Soundgarden - monster riffing that fails to scare but succeeds to please. Black Magic; All Mysteries Revealed is filled with songs about misfits trying to make a buck. All mysticism aside this if pretty basic stoner rock that is straight as its now sober members. FYI: Love Like Blood is an original ...

Filed under: Tours Stoner metal veterans Karma to Burn will return to the road this spring to promote their fourth studio album, 'Appalachian Incantation,' which comes out May 11. The tour will launch in Brooklyn, N.Y. on May 14 and runs through May 29 in Wichita, Kan. "We have hopes that the allure of bright lights and the promise of instant wealth will have Karma to Burn shows filled to the rafters with youngsters clamoring for instruction in summoning and conjuring, willing their bodies and souls to Lucifer in unholy blood covenants, or at least watching more softcore pornography ...

Taking their cues from the blues-rock and Southern rock movements of the 1970s, Los Angeles-based Year Long Disaster began with Daniel Davies, the group's lead singer and guitarist. While struggling with a drug habit in April 2003, he met Rich Mullins, bassist and founding member of Karma to ... — full article at itunes.apple.com

I'm hoping the band's name isn't a prelude to how things might go this year, but if the year goes as rocking as the music it should be just fine. I've been in a sort of blog flux lately, when I have time to blog I have no desire to and when I've had the desire the time's not been there. Same story, just monster busy at work and also have an equally monster personal to-do list. The backlog of music sent in is getting quite ominous-some stuff came in last November -so I ...

It wasn’t exactly baffling when notoriously eclectic songwriter John Darnielle started dropping names like Rich Mullins and Amy Grant in interviews, but it was certainly interesting. Having always drawn influences from musicians as diverse as reggae bad-boy King Yellowman and black-metal marauders Marduk, his immersion in the world of Contemporary...

I went through my last 20 reviews to see how much desperate I really am to recruit at least another reviewer for the site. Here is the thing, I’m starting to sound repetitive and it’s tiring to see my name on all the reviews. My collaborators are awesome, but very busy guys, Jean-Stephane Beriot is currently in Argentina working with a superstar (sorry, can’t share too much about it), and Andrew Casillas is shaping his lawyer career (that should tell you). I’ve been jobless for a while, and still going to college somehow, so I’m ...

When it comes to their music, Casey and Jesse Cooper don’t do anything halfway. The brothers who make up local band the Receiver are perfectionists, especially Casey, the apparent vision-caster who handles vocals, bass, keyboards, synth, piano, programming and all the lyrics while Jesse mans the drum kit. With Length of Arms , the two have mastered the art of making a richly rewarding, sonically crisp studio album. Like the Receiver’s 2006 release, Decades , this new record is meant to be heard from front to back, with songs that ebb and flow into others, yet stand on their own ...

How Day Earnt Its Night , due June 9th, will find Tompkins Square shining their folk-colored spotlight on the latest works from steely-string superstar Reynolds. For a preview of Reynolds particular brand of folk, look no further than the next line: Ben Reynolds - "England" In his solo instrumental works, he draws upon the vast well of musical inspiration native to the British Isles as well as that found across the Atlantic and ...

Letztes Jahr noch auf eine Woche ausgedehnt, findet das Vorstadt Sounds Festival heuer wieder gewohnt komprimiert statt: Über 20 Bands auf 3 Bühnen an 2 Abenden. Der erhöhte Aufwand und etwas verloren gegangene Quartierfest-Charakter des letztjährigen Experiments bewog das OK für die 9. Ausgabe zur Rückbesinnung auf das bewährte Wochenend-Format. So teilt sich am 22. und 23. Mai in Zürich [...]
