Long story short: Vance the Puppet, a couple of Twitter followers, (and my own proclivities) led me down a worm-hole from 11 PM to 3 AM last night. If you follow me on Twitter, you might’ve witnessed the carnage. The upshot of it all, is that there were *WAY* too many bands that used “heavy Hammond” and wound up sounding like Uriah Heep throwaways, but there WERE some gems. Here’re a few that I hit on last night:
The Way We Live, “King Dick II”
New Lords, “Power”
18 Karat Gold, “Flying”
High Tide, “Death Warmed Up”
Pärson Sound, “India (slight return)”
Life, “Sailing in The Sunshine”
Poe, “Tune In”
Lucifer Was, “Teddy’s Sorrow”
(And indeed, it is my sorrow that I had to include it)
A to Austr, “Thumbquakes and Earthscrew”
