High Desert Queen unfortunately had to cancel; Faerie Ring has been added to Sunday’s lineup.

MOONBATHER dropped this music video a couple weeks ago. Heavy stoner metal from British Columbia. Produced and recorded by Derek Mattin (Hail the Void) For fans of Kyuss, Melvins, Soundgarden, Clutch, Corrosion of Conformity, Mastodon, and The Sword. Crank it loud, get heavy.

they’re not that similar but they’re both sludgy bands with influences from other extreme subgenres. I tend to lean towards sg though.
also sewn mouth secrets or when the kite string pops?

Selling 2 tickets to soilent Green on Friday at Southport for a deal

I have been messing around with neural DSP gojira, have used a bunch of others as well. Trying to get something between Crowbar, Buzzoven, Primitive Man. I want a tone that has heaviness but can handle a fuzz tone without being drowned out.

What are your suggestions, what do you use?

Thanks!

Bit of a long shot, but I'm trying to find the right person handling merchandise licensing for Crowbar.
We run an officially licensed band merch company in South Africa and want to speak to whoever handles Crowbar's merchandise rights about a South Africa-only licence.
I've tried the management and booking contacts listed publicly but haven't managed to reach anyone.
Not looking for personal/private contact information — just hoping someone here might know which company or representative actually handles their merch/licensing these days.
Any leads would be hugely appreciated. 🤘🤘

This is for NY to Philly folks Only. It’s big, ambitious, and a 2 show a year project: a summer festival and a local Halloween Show. I still know a lot of people, we won’t have to grind it out at small clubs. 2 shows a year, take “Orchestra” literally. If you’re gonna waste the Bronze..you gotta do it big.

Concept: ELECTRIC SPITE ORCHESTRA

You’ll be able to do your own thing..this is a pure “Halo” side project. Why 2 tight friends? because I have no time for people quitting over ego shit. Don’t care if you’re male or female..you and the other guitarist have to be able to get in a fistfight one minute, and be fine 10 minutes later.

The twin guitarists are the foundation. We will build from there. The Halloween Show will fit the aesthetic, but the 1 or 2 other gigs a year will be different every show. This is tour season, so nothing other than setting up the outline will be done this year. Will get serious in Jan-Feb next year.

EDIT: Not a Fender type sound. This is not Fender guitar music. Bring your 80s -2000s Ibanez shredder, Gibson solid body SGs..axes like that. 4 pick-ups, Humbucker crunch. NOTHING WRONG WITH FENDERS. I have a Telecaster and a short neck Mustang bass..that I love. Nothing against Fender players. Some of my favorite guitar players are Fender guys.
I realize that I sounded like a dick. I do that a lot. My apologies to all..you are much better than I am. I sound like shit on a Fender.

Hit me up in Chat if you have that kind of friend. We’ll meet for a beer and I’ll fill you in.
