BLEEDING EYES

DOOM/SLUDGE

GO DOWN RECORDS

ITALY

Founded in november 2002, 

the band’s initial lineup was Alberto volcals, Faze drums, Jacopo bass and Andrea guitar. 

In june 2003 the band recorded the first demo, “Part of an audiolesionist”. 

In december Jacopo Left the band and Dux joined in... 

With this formation Bleeding Eyes performed many shows, and in December 2004 Recorded at BadRum Studio their second effort “No God!”. 

In 2005 Bleeding Eyes started promoting the album, playing shows in all Italy; 

That summer they even played at METALCAMP in Slovenia with Slayer, Anthrax, Soulfly, Obituary and many more... 

In november Bleeding Eyes went on their first European Tour, reaching Germany, Belgium, France, Holland, Swiss, Poland, Hungary, Slovenia, Austria. 

At this point Bleeding Eyes’s sound started changing towards Sludge, Rock, Stoner. 

In April 2006 a new four song EP presented the new sound. 

In January 2007 Tez (ex Timothy) joined the band and Alberto left. 

With this formation Bleeding Eyes composed a new album that was released in May 2008 and was Mastered by STEVE AUSTIN (Today Is The Day). 

In May 2009 Bleeding Eyes went on a Second European Tour supporting The Orange Man Theory... 

In March 2010 Jay joined the band replacing Andrea on guitar. 

In summer 2010 Bleeding Eyes played at Disintegrate Your Ignorance Fest with CROWBAR, Black Cobra, Sourvein, Weedeater, Doomraiser, Zippo and many more... 

Bleeding Eyes’s sound changed again adding a more Psychedelic sound to the good old Stoner, Sludge. 

Developing this new sound and experimenting more and more to find the ultimate chemistry in the band Faze, Dux, Tez and Jay decided to look for a second guitarist. 

After months of search in September 2011 Jeffrey (ex Slowdown) joined in giving birth to BLEEDING EYES (The Ultimate Formation).

"Dark and fat tunes with a hardcore attitude...rare and pure straight from Italy.

The whole concept works great with the cover and the music. They create a own world of atmospheric ambient sound and break the clouds with their full and downtuned sound...Bleeding Eyes are a fresh wind in the Doom/Sludge scene...Great first album, you should try it!!!"

DOUGE - D

Italy

Stoner Rock

Thanks a lot, that GOOGLE is your friend at the web....

So with it's help, i found out that the bands name is DOUGE, that they come from Italy, and the name of the album simply is “D”. The Artwork of the CD is a mystery for itself!!

But the music is Stoner Rock at its best. Nice guitar parts with ass kicking solos, and sometimes a bass orgy...

From groovy to dark there's a lot of atmospheres in “D”. And the Voice reminds me sometimes of classic Hard-rock bands... Interesting and really worth to be heard.

VIBRAVOID – DELIRIO DEI SENSI 

Germany

Psych Rock

The CD starts with a classic French Song called “Poupée de cire". The whole Album is in the mood of good old Psychedelic Rock... Sometimes it reminds me of Pink Floyd Album “Piper at the Gates Of Dawn” or Iron Butterfly...

With a mixture of old fashioned Organs and guitar distortion, and a perfect matching bass playing, the complete Album is a bless for everyone who loves the good old Psychedelic 60ies!!

Take a stroboscope and a oil lamp in your living room and let run DELIRIO DEI SENSI!!

A TRIP!! ;)

HERBA MATE – THE JELLYFISH IS DEAD AND THE HURRICANE IS COMING 

Italy

Desert Rock

Man... this Quest was really hard too, to find out what's behind this Band name and this long Album title. This Italian Band with an exotic name, plays desert rock. This is, what the music itself shows me ;)

The Album includes 9 Tracks full of genre typical songs, and reminds me of classic Desert / Stoner Rock bands like QUOTSA, KYUSS and FU MANCHU.

But there is a unique touch in it, so HERBA MATE forms a kind of own sound with this Album...

KING HOWL QUARTET

Cagliari/Italy

Southern/Heavy Rock

Howling is fundamental. The moan, the passion, the unexplainable strength of blues. Not a music, not only a feeling but a vibe that gives a different color to each day. A way to feel musical notes that makes impossible to perceive the difference between who is playing and who is listening. Through the King Howl, blues find a new way. Sounds coming from the first part of XX century, like those from people like Son House, Muddy Water, Howling Wolf, Robert Johnson, are filtered out and take new shape, combining stoner rock, funk, punk and jazz style in a new crossover labored with spontaneity and naturalness, in a direct way. Their set is is a flow of sounds that never stops, which changes at each song, speaking the blues language, with a different accent every time.

HOMPAGE

The quartet (each musician comes from different bands like Giannies, Antagonista Quintet, Pirina Scream, Super Oil 69, Thee Oops), after their first “King Howl EP” and a year full of gigs around Italy (sometimes supporting bands like Kamikaze Queens, King Salami, Tre Allegri Ragazzi Morti, Kina, Uoki Toki, Aucan), is ready to present their first full length, an album with 11 tracks, where King Howl show an original songwriting combining the best blues tradition to very different rhythms and progressions, defined by a heavy moving sound always looking at a stoner rock feeling. A journey between 8new unpublished tracks and 3 old blues songs completely revisited, one of them (Hard Time Killing Floor), with Francesco Piu on guitars. From crossover grooves (Mornin’), to psycho boogie (Wolfman’s calling) through stoner (My Lord) and smokey atmospheres (Nocturne), an album that smells like a live, You must play it Louder.

BONES & COMFORT

STONER ROCK

MILANO

Bones & Comfort are a power trio formed in 2006 by Daniele. His need to play pure rock and roll without frills is shared by Alberto and Luca.

Bones & Comfort offer a unique blend of rock, blues, stoner trips and southern sounds.

The first live shows brought lots of positive feedback within the rock community. Bones & Comfort progressively developed their sound and at the end of 2008 the band headed into the studio.

After a few months of hard work and entire nights spent mixing, "…in Fat we trust" is completed.

The EP contains five original songs and is fully self-produced. The music reflects the attitude of the band and the tracks are filled with warm distortions, heavy riffs and catchy choruses, which have all become trademarks of the Bones & Comfort sound.

Once in a great while, a band comes along that sets itself apart from the rest.With the recent explosion of independent music this becomes an even more difficult task.
As rock bands evolve and develop a more technical and refined sound, it becomes increasingly necessary to sonically "strike hard and fast" and leave your listener "hooked and begging for more. Powerful and versatile trio inspired by the "desert rock", supported by GoDown Records and formed in 2004. They already occupy a respectable place in the Italian underground, thanks to a lot of granitic & wild r'n'roll gigs all over Italy (and not only..), supporting international cult bands such as Nebula, Josiah, Colour Haze, OJM, Joe Lalli (Fugazi), The Answer, Brant Bjork (Kyuss), and many more!! The lucky debut album "Ready to burn" was released in 2007 for GoDown Records, followed in 2009 by an E.P. unplugged "Dogs without plugs".After one year away from the scene for recording the new album & changing drummer, on summer 2011 they are ready to come back and strike again.
This sophomore album "REVOLUTION LOVE" follows-up right where the "Dogs" left off with (“Ready to burn” – GoDown Records 2007). Long-time dynamic duo Simone (bass&vox) and Michele (guitars) have joined forces with new drummer (Alberto Trevisan) and this super-union of rock-and-roll power is a force to be reckoned with! The new album you can buy here.

In the meantime you can download the unplugged album
