vaditor This is an incredible album and is the perfect mix of Stoner Rock and Doom, Fuzz, and classic crank it up to 11!! The production is really well done, highly recommended. Can't wait until they get a record deal. Favorite track: Tzar Bomba.

👁⃤ This has taken me by surprise. Probably one of the better releases this year. Pummeling riffs, psychedelic noodling and a nice production. Daring to be a bit different takes this to another level.

On down the highway Cruising the milky way I'm a space columbus Caught in the deep blue On down the road here Passing Jupiters stratosphere We stop for a refuel At Mr. Greens Burn, Imperial Duster You hear the engines laughter See the devil in the rearview mirror Burn, Imperial Duster I'm one crazy baron See the skyline turn into disaster What can I do for you Fill her up, we're taking a detour That's 5, 99 99 million hours per mile Feeling calm, feeling mellow Getting closer the devil We head for a black hole Never to return Burn, Imperial Duster You hear the engines laughter See the devil in the rearview mirror Burn, Imperial Duster I'm one crazy baron See the skyline turn into disaster Burn, burn, Imperial Duster Burn, Burn, Imperial Duster Burn, Burn, Imperial Duster Burn, Burn, Burn Burn, Burn, Imperial Duster Uh

Meet On Mars 04:23
Once upon a time was a mind sky high Explored the voids that no one else knew about Starry eyes burning red, he's fueled and leaving now Then a final thought came into his head When I leave this world behind And explode into the sky We'll meet on Mars In his state of mind, he is all at ease He's filled the void, now it's in his reach The dunes are clear, he can see the sands Atop of the hill, Looking down on us When I leave this world behind And explode into the sky We'll meet on Mars

Holy Oath 03:27
The aftermath of a bad bad trip A sadist on the other end of a whip Could this be the end I quipped? Broken and bent, trapped in steel chains Magical torture on hollow remains I ache for black drugs in my veins. Oh I bend to your will Oh master please I´m loyal still If i could dream of a better tomorrow Beyond the ways of the cult that I follow And the moon would light my way There´s no escaping from these evil ways The Wizard rules us by the evil gaze All days disappear in a haze You broke the holy oath Oh I bend to your will Oh master please I´m loyal still I'm loyal, loyal still

Tzar Bomba 07:44
Controlled puppets on strings Proud to die by the wings Once and never before Shake the earth to the core Downfall is in the night Mushroom cloud will soar high Once and never again Carnage by acid rain
5.
Harvest 04:48
Descending from the black on to the desert down below Colossus made of metal, emitting unknown glow As this monster lands the desert's dressed in flames We welcome you dear friends, you who bear no names And in the other end, ascending from the cold Bottom of the sea, is where the secrets all unfold A signal from above tells them that it's time Preparing to reach surface when the planets all align It's time for harvest now These creatures shows us how
6.
There is no escaping, I feel my belly aching I found the Demon of the Sands Where the land meets the skies Nothing but dustballs fly Azaleth ruler of these lands Grab me by the bones Dirt and withered stones You turn the mountains into dust Where the land meets the skies Nothing but vultures fly Azaleth ruler of these lands Demon of the Sands Take me in your hands Beneath the burning sun Where camels go to die Serpent chosen one King crawling lizard eyes
7.
Dr. Plague 05:32
See me sweep from door to door And where I go, well death it follows You may have heard me knock before So you'll what news that I'll bring you I've got many roads to travel As I ride across the land You may have heard my name before You know they call me Dr. Plague Come the crane, Come the plague
8.
Witchcoven 05:01
I once was baptized in a church but turned away when I knew I could And I remember when I learned to write his name..in blood A witches coven took me in And they showed me to the light Walking hand in hand with Lucifer Their master...in the night Electrify me be my witch (Electrify me be my witch)
9.
I spoke my mind I spoke the truth I spoke my mind...I spoke the truth What a legacy to leave behind Is afterlife....the only reason you were kind? Guess I just have to deal with Ceasing to exist I spoke my mind, did you smoke yours? I spoke my mind, but you smoked yours! What can I do, but sip in every breath? And wait for impending death Guess I just have to deal with Ceasing to exist

Shone as the void uncovered:
The silence of deep height was drawn
A veil across the silver dawn
On holy wings that hovered

This record will destroy your mind and reap your soul. From the musicians who brought you "The Slowerdrive Tapes" and one hit wonder "The Gnome", here's the full album. And as you might have hoped for, it's filled to the breakingpoint with fuzzy madness and mind crawling craziness. The magnitude of heavy can only be described as a sonic dreamscape. Through the desert lands, vast dunes and evil cults. From witches gatherings to space and back, just in time for the harvest season.

Explore the Void…tune down, turn up and fuzz out!
