Doomstar!


Doomstar! is one of my favorite current Boston bands. The album Colors takes you on a surrealistic journey through space and beyond while still keeping you grounded enough to move your feet and hips. The rolling drum beats make me feel like I'm rolling through a field of amplifiers on summer grass. You'd have to hear it to understand, I guess.

Sunn O)))


This band is really amazing. Originally from Seattle, Washington, Sunn O))) is one of the loudest bands you can ever go see. Their music is categorized by some as drone, noise, stoner metal or doom metal. Songs usually include guitars tuned in drop a in a tempo that's slow moving and heavy, almost like your trudging on a very epic journey through the desert. Sunn O))) was created my Stephen O'Malley and Greg Anderson and is currently on SouthernLord records. The band uses SUNN amps to produce its unique sound.

Hear.
