This irregularly posted column is brought to you today by the letter B, because I definitely didn’t need an excuse to post a Sesame Street video.

 

B Is For Belzebong

Huge wheezing stoner riffs, lumbering swamp-man style drums and enough hazy weed smoke to hotbox a double decker bus. All this from the backwater slow-ride that is… Poland? Geographic locations aside, Belzebong is heavy as fuck. They take influences from all the major stoner bands like Sleep and Bongripper but mostly they fill that Bongzilla-shaped hole left in your life, especially lingering in the more instrumental spaced-out jams like “Stonesphere” from Amerijanican. So it’s time to drop out of life with a bong in your hand, head over to the Belzebong bandcamp and download the new 30 minute, 4 track EP Sonic Scapes & Weedy Grooves. To be honest though, it sounds great no matter what state of mind you’re in.

A Little Bongripper

If you haven’t heard of Bongripper, you should stab yourself and immediately rectify this mistake of a life you’ve been living (jk ilu). These guys are an experimental doom band hailing out of Chicago. They combine sludge, doom, post-rock, noise, and a shit ton of other stuff to go from albums that sway you in an ocean while high as shit, to ear shattering experimental noise stuff that will unnerve even the manliest of men.

This is them playing a song that was written during the writing process for this year’s brilliant release Satan Worshipping Doom, but never made it to the full length. It’s an awesome performance.

Also, I’ve been even more absent than usual because I’ve been sick as fuck and busy as fuck lately. Sorry.

Bongripper, a Chigago, IL based doom band knoWn for being lOng, sludgy, harsh, and even stRaight up noise muSic are getting ready to put out tHeir new full length album tItled Satan Worshipping Doom. The album will contain 4 songs and will clock in at over an hour of SATAN. The track listing is as follows. I’m Pretty excited.

1.  Hail
2.  Satan
3.  Worship
4.  Doom

No joke either. TheSe guys Are seriously good and I wanT to see how they pull off slightly more trAditioNal and cheesy early doom. If you haven’t heard their material before, I suggest the releases Hippie Killer, The Great Barrier Reefer. The band are still looking for a label or some distribution for the new album, so if you can provide that for them, provide that.
