RETRO, Heavy Psych, Metal and Prog .......

Some top posts Malikarcanum and you're right that bloke is a killer for Ozzy sound alike, great stuff. You mentioned Kyuss, the spin off Kyuss Lives played Donington (Download) last year and I thought they put on a belting show.

JESS AND THE ANCIENT ONES ~ S/T debut ...

Heavy Psych outfit from Finland, another Nordic band drench in the sonic sound vibrations of those acid soaked daze known as the 70's.

Just though that you might be interested in this. Here's my current favorite song, Come Crimson Death, from the album in question, performed live in Helsinki just a few nights ago. It's an amateur recording but the audio is very good (considering) and their playing is of course top-notch.

Cool, thx for that

The Answer


A Rock band from Ireland. I really love these guys. They're pure old school, & the singer sounds like the lovechild of Plant & Bon Scott. That particular combination of influences isn't a bad way to describe their general sound.








They also play some mean Blues:





Lastly, they cut a mean cover of Sweet Emotion that, blasphemous or not, I prefer to the original. (Forgive me, I'm young )

^^^ Caught these guys on the tv a couple of months back, made me sit up & take notice right away. Singer has a fantastic voice

He has a great voice, seen them a few times and have the first two albums, not sure what they are up to at the moment but they were touring a lot and supporting some big names, remember them supporting Whitesnake a few years back and they were awesome...

Purson


A new band from England. These guys came our of nowhere & just killed with their debut record. It's Occult Rock, quite similar to Jess & The Ancient Ones, but with a bit of a Prog edge to it, & some elements of Jefferson Airplane. Easily my 2nd favorite band in the scene after Jess themselves.

Great Stuff. Will have to get my hands on this

Blues Pills


Another new retro band from Sweden. They only have an EP & A single out right now, but they're really, really promising. They're really Blues-y, with some Psych elements as well, almost as if Jess ATAO or Devil's Blood had a baby with Graveyard. A little Fleetwood in spots, as well.

She has a damn fine set of pipes on her! There's certainly some quality bands coming out of Sweden
