Wiht - The Harrowing of the North (album sample)


Taster of upcoming album from Wiht. Due for summertime release, 2011.

Black Pyramid - Black Pyramid


2009 stoner/doom release from Massachusetts based Black Pyramid. Super catchy, and massive heavy riffs!


Dopefight - Buds



Riffs and Buds, pretty much! Fucking awesome stoner/doom band from London, 2010 release.

Sungrazer - Sungrazer






2010 release from Stoner/Desert rock trio Sungrazer. Uber warm guitar tones and minimal vocals.

Sloth Hammer and Drvonesound - Split




LUKE circuit bends dolls and games and speak n spells and keyboards and toys and alien figures and makes them make noises they shouldn't, couldn't, wouldn't make ordinarily.

PAUL plays bass, has done many bands and projects in past years, some you may even know, he plays death and black and grind and tech and doom and sludge and prog and horror and hate and misanthropy and harsh discordance.

Together they make SLOTH HAMMER. They improvise and jam and scare and enthrall and hypnotise and harm and stab and hack and bash and crash and crunch and stick things in your eyes and hit you with planks of wood and mash you into the stinking horrible mush that you deserve to be.





 JOE is bass man for Wiht, and previously Solitary Mass. He makes unnerving, minimal drone musics for those who enjoy their Sunn o))) and Nulll Records release. This is definitely not party music, but for those of you who know how to enjoy ambient bass dronings, then maybe you will have the best time ever with this. Drvonesound, or, as Luke Sloth has coined him, Dr. Vone Sound, will bring the calm into your minds, whilst still making you feel uneasy about the surroundings.
