Ten Foot Wizard are a heavy blues rock band from Manchester with a penchant for tasty groove-heavy riffs and hard rocking fuzzy tunes. Since 2009 they have create their own style in songwriting, sometimes a little bit confusing but most of the time the album comes fat and groovy...
"Southern Rock attitude, a style the old known hard rock song's and a handful of grunge...Ten Foot Wizard fucking rock's...Especially the song's named "Real Love"(Ghost feeling's), "Medicine", "The Storm" and definitely "Return to the Infinite"...give them your ear!!!" 8 from 10 Stonerheadpoints
A very intersting mix of doom, trash metal and driving stoner lick's, the voice of Max remind's me on the greece band LAST RIZLA or sometimes on the godfather of loudness Lemmy.
In total package very satisfactory, a good stuff to rock properly. Recommended songs: "Goatrider", "Sungrazing World", "Frozen Desert"

Mother Sloth
Spain
Stoner/Doom/Sludge
Madrid-based band, started in 2008. Original members were Oscar on drums, Alvaro - guitars, Rafael - vocals, and Jackie - guitars.
Started jamming and playing the first songs, called Pile Of Fortune, Gothic Cyborg, Shadow Witch, songs written by Oscar and Rafael who had the idea for the band since 2007.
The first collaboration with the rest of the band members were songs called Monster Dinner, Revenge , and Hardened.
The band recorded some demos in their rehearsal space to send to a festival, and later on edited these recordings with the title Death Flowers ( 2009).
Then Rafael left, and the band started writing songs in a different direction,perhaps a wider approach, some of them have remained instrumental, such as Holy Wall and Death Flower.
They invited Diego Birch to play bass, he stayed in the band until 2010.
As soon as the band found a new singer, they started rehearsing for the debut. Rolando Fernandez took the position and with him the band started playing around the Madrid venues. The debut show was on 14 April 2011 opening for La Dolorosa.
They kept on writing more songs, such as Supersun, Goliath and also found a new bass player, Gerald.
The band played with some other bands such as Cherry But No Cake (UK), Pura Muerte, Craneon, Teething, Dawn To Dusk, Orthodox, until the beginning of 2012.
Right before getting into the studio to do some good quality recordings, they decided to replace the singer, and called Fernando Polvaredo from local band Fungus to do the job.
They called this collection Hazy Blur Of Life, consisting of four songs, namely Pile Of Fortune, Goliath, MotherSloth and Supersun.
In the band's sound you can find several influences,70's inspired sounds combined with heavy guitar riffs and open chords, in order to give each song the sound it needs.
First band EP, released December 2012 via bandcamp.
"This 4 track piece of high quality stoner metal kicks ass and does not need to hide. MOTHERSLOTH focus on groove and hardening, the singing goes well with the entire.
Recommended songs: "Supersun", "Mothersloth"
Exciting and nightmarish moments are guaranteed, enjoy "Hazy Blur of Life" free on their bandcamp site..."
Five unholy wizards compelled by the power of the riff and dark, dark magic. Forged in dragons fire atop a lightning lashed mountain in the year of our Lord two thousand and ten. Rumbling riffs combined with finely hewn words of power to conjure up images of otherwordly things creeping forth from the darkest reccesses... *ahem* ...Sorry about that... If you have a low "fantastical bullshit" threshold, we're basically five guys who've been around in a variety of bands over the years, brought together by a shared love of "THEE RIFF" and a desire to jam and see what happens. Turns out that what happens is a heavy Stoner/Doomy/Metal type thing, but with a whole bunch of other elements thrown in. Self titled studio EP released in 2011 and full length album, Black Sands, released 2012. Come worship at the altar...
"A speedy sound with a lot of groove is Mage's business card.
"Black Sands" offers everything what a Stoner Metal listener want to hear.
Song's like "Degenerate","Rust", "Star Born" and "Hulk Out" are killer song's and also the rest of the album kicks ass. So it's a good idea to buy this album because for only 4,99 pounds you can't make a mistake with MAGE...do it!!!"
SOUL THIEF formed in 2009 when Robert Mathews joined Stuart Barton & Marcus Gage for some sessions they had been working on.
An immediate creativity was sparked with haunting etherial vocals and mighty pounding bass grooves. Guitars ripping up those riffs and shredding supernovae solos while drums thump like rocks being split as the band bring pieces to the brink of Armageddon and then lay them down again with sweet soul kisses.
Out of this union a music emerged that they referred to as Space Funk - mix of heavy psychedelic stoner space rock with the odd unusual time signature and a smooth aftertaste.
Listen and get "Funk City Revolutions" here or here
"buja...what a fat album...great solo's...psychy tunes and real trippy sound atmosphere...get your brain smashed from this awesome band...a band with a big future!"
