Stoner HiVe’s Quick Fire Friday

Stoner HiVe’s Quick Fire Friday

 

And we're back with new Quick Fire fun! The Stoner HiVe Quick Fire Friday segment is a weekly feature of a handful of bands and only a small amount of words to help spread their musical prowess and our melodic belief… 

MIST – Demo 2013

 

The Slovenian doom metal ladies MIST are set to embark on their first ever European mini-tour by the end of May. A perfect moment to give their 2013 Demo a little attention which was recorded as a quintet; but they now perform as a foursome. And their eighties sounding seventies tempo sounds like an occult march of despair and surrender. Especially opener Phobia, which features damn fine riffs and equally good vocals shines red with blood. Check’em out and go see them live!

Bright Curse – Bright Curse

 

Another band that is about to hit the stage is the London born psychedelic doom trio Bright Curse who are playing at Desert Fest London this Sunday. Their selftitled debut EP was released in 2012 and features five tasty doom tracks that meander from stoner to fuzz and weaves it all with natural psychedelic currents. Moody, groovy and dark. Thunderous, ponderous and with an brilliant, hypnotic eternal spark!

Junior Bruce – The Nomad

The amazing Junior Bruce is about to release a new full-length record somewhere on the tail-end of 2014. But before that joyous time arrives they already treat us to a follow-up EP for their heavy earlier effort called The Burden. This one is named The Nomad and bears two blazing hot stoner sludge metal tracks that are as gritty and filthy as anything you can think off. So break your fingers and break your neck; cause the brutal Junior Bruce is back!

Junior Bruce – The Burden

 

Junior Bruce – The Burden

Self released – 2013

Rock, Metal, Stoner, Sludge

Rated: ****

Their damn fine debut album The Headless King released in 2012 rippled the stoner metal pond until it became a stormy ocean. And now the five amigos are back with a follow-up two track EP called The Burden. We are of course referring to the Florida outfit Junior Bruce. Who delivered with this very EP one of the heaviest and brutal releases of this very year. It is an all-out wrecking ball! But one that doesn’t just level everything; it does so with precision and countenance. Just listen to the drums. Deliberate air where one would expect thick bass and slow rhythms accentuated by cymbal ticks and crashes. The riffs slay with ease, the guitars howl so beautifully it makes your skin crawl and the growling vocalist convinces even more. Check out Junior Bruce and get naked. For apparently that’s the only way to go when enjoying a wrecking ball!
