DOOM.

Yeah, now that I have the select few of you who actually enjoy said title for this thread. It is time to shamelessly self promote.

Check out Bongripper's new album "Hate Ashbury"

There are a couple of torrent sites where you can hear the new disc.

Or if you want to be super cool, or a geek like me and need to own physical copies of the things you listen to you can pick up your very own copy (plus some other cool things) on our myspace which is linked in my sig below.

Oh yeah there are a couple teaser clips on the myspace, it is kind of hard to post songs up when they last over an hour and each part takes like 4 minutes to go through...

But yeah let me know what you think. Also note the sweet bass/distortion tone I got going on at the beginning of track 3

I've said it before, you guys are bad ass. Looking forward to checking out the album.

Not to toot our own horn, but it is pretty heavy. I've been digging it pretty hard since we got it all finished.

1 song 65 minutes, tracked into 8 parts, so if you don't want to listen to us manipulate pedals and drone guitars for 10 minutes you can skip those parts. I wouldn't suggest it, but it is an option.

My favorite stoner/metal/doom band. Defining it has become difficult, not because of the music, but because of the gradual progression (regression?) of musical classification.

But seriously, you guys rock, and I hope you tour soon, so I can check you out personally.

Thanks a ton dude, We actually were just out in OH, PA, and CT last weekend. We are heading out to probably OH and PA again in June. We are working on a longer and bigger tour, but for now the weekend ones will have to do.

Valerus · #7 05-01-2008, 09:31 PM

i'll check you guys out!

MickMichaels · #8 05-01-2008, 09:40 PM

Heavy as hell. Love it, nice work dude.

This kind of music is not allowed in La Grange Park. That's a happy place. I know, I used to go to LT in another lifetime.

Top-notch-quality stuff there. I think I'll have to go and order me up some CD's later.

Why do your upcoming shows have to be on Thursdays? I work 4pm to 12am. You did it on purpose, didn't you?

IT would be rad if you guys were opening for Thrones on the 16th, I actually took a night off for that.

I love the overdrive tone in Reefer Sutherland. Is that Muff?

brakeonthroo · #11 05-02-2008, 01:27 PM

Not even close. Reefer I was using some weird blended tone of a Hughes & Kettner Tube factor. I personally wasn't too into how that came out recorded, just kinda sounded buzzy to me.

CHILDISHGAMBINO · #15 05-02-2008, 05:38 PM

I'm listening to it now. I'm digging it thoroughly.

Nyarlathotep · #16 05-03-2008, 08:39 AM

DLing it. I love the stuff on your MySpace....

Mind if I ask whats with the whole goat thing?????

Matt Till · #17 05-03-2008, 09:39 AM

Gave it a listen, Heaaavvvyyy. I dig the spacey "manipulate pedals and drone guitars" stuff, there was a period of time where that was all I listened to. Good stuff.

Nyarlathotep · #18 05-03-2008, 10:04 AM

BTW, is there a cd cover pic for this?

Deluge Of Sound · #19 05-03-2008, 12:33 PM

Loving it. Stoner/Doom really gets me hard, and this stuff is just quality.

It'll go real well with the AK I've got in my pocket...

EDIT: Just checked out the myspace, you guys are opening for minsk! That's f'ing sick, I saw them play with Ocean, Conifer and Rwake last year, and it was a mindblowing show. Hopefully you guys head out east sometime.
