Limited edition of only 4000 copies on 180gr. black vinyl. Deluxe gatefold sleeve. I had not heard anything like this album before this disc started spinning in my CD-player. Think SLEEP without drums and vocals goin' at it in an extremely slow pace. This album is filled with lots of low-end ambience and it seems like the music has been recorded in layer after layer after layer. ($23.99)

Black Cobra: Invernal (LP) http://www.allthatisheavy.com/info.asp?item_num=ATH-8947

Limited edition of only 1500 copies on 180gr. black vinyl. Deluxe gatefold sleeve. No mincy acoustic intros. No hokey spoken word kickoff. The opening barrage of riffs on "Avalanche" is like a shotgun blast of thumb tacks, gravel and raw amphetemine - point blank to the face. The energy is so intense on during the first couple of seconds that I could literally feel my pulse racing. Thirty seconds in, question asked, question answered: Are Black Cobra back and in proper form? FUCK YEAH!! ($19.99)

Sourvein: Black Fangs (w/ Bonus 7 inch) (Color) (LP) http://www.allthatisheavy.com/info.asp?item_num=ATH-8946

Limited edition of only 500 copies on color vinyl. Includes a bonus 7 inch on color vinyl. North Carolina's Sourvein finally achieve the feedback-drenched sludge greatness they've approached with previous releases. A wonderfully raw production amplifies the awesomeness of slow-burners like "Holy Transfusion" and "Society's Blood." But Sourvein—who once boasted Electric Wizard's Liz Buckingham among their ranks—are even better when they pick up the pace, like on the raging and unhinged "Nomadic." What really makes them so good, however, is how they've nailed the sludge attitude: throughout the album, the band sounds ugly and prickly, like old gizzards creaking out of their cave, squinting at daylight and cursing everyone's name. ($23.99)

Cathedral: A New Ice Age (Color) (LP) http://www.allthatisheavy.com/info.asp?item_num=ATH-8940

Vinyl only release. Limited edition of transparent blue splotch on clear vinyl. "Open Mind Surgery" is Cathedral at their heavy, aggressive punk-tinged best. Coming across like a cross between Amebix and Motorhead, with a tripped out mid section, it displays yet another side to this most enigmatic of British Metal bands. Side two, "Sabbadaius Sabbatum" is classic Cathedral-styled Doom Metal! ($19.99)

Mellow Candle: Swaddling Songs Plus... (w/ Bonus 7 inches) (LP Box Set) http://www.allthatisheavy.com/info.asp?item_num=ATH-8941

Remasterd from the original tapes. Includes two LPs two bonus 7 inches and a 12 page LP sized booklet. Mellow Candle were an Irish band from the post-psychedelic era that produced but this one album, which went sadly unacknowledged in its initial release. Over the years, though, Mellow Candle's sole LP garnered cult status, making it an eventual heavy hitter among British folk-rock collectors, who were content to pay considerable sums of money for mint copies, if the liner notes for the CD are to be believed. In any case, there are two reasons to get Swaddling Songs, neither of them inconsiderable. ($64.99)

Ghost: Ghost (Black) (T-shirt) http://www.allthatisheavy.com/info.asp?item_num=ATH-8939

Black T-shirt. ($20.99)

Cosmic Trip Machine: Vampyros Roussos (w/ Bonus 7 inch) (Color) (LP) http://www.allthatisheavy.com/info.asp?item_num=ATH-8942

Limited edition of only 100 copies on translucent hot pink vinyl. Includes a bonus 7 inch. Deluxe gatefold sleeve. The eighteen track album is full of catchy psychedelic hooks. The somewhat lethargic and unintelligible vocals are augmented in places by the aforementioned spoken word samples which lean to The Dark Side of the Moon as a blueprint. Amidst all the hooky psych freaking you get boot-kicking go-go dance, stoner elements, and even a bit of Chicago blues shuffle. The instrumentation is varied, with appearances by eastern percussion, squiggly electronics, backwards tape effects, some Theremin style elements, and last but not least, the obligatory sitar and organ. ($49.99)

Electric Moon: The Doomsday Machine (2LP) http://www.allthatisheavy.com/info.asp?item_num=ATH-8943

Limited edition of only 400 copies on black vinyl. Deluxe gatefold sleeve. Put down the freak flags and pick up your "The End is Nigh" signs, for The Doomsday Machine is here. Electric Moon is back already and casting a long, dark shadow. There's been a slow boiling darkness in Electric Moon, brought even closer to the surface on this year's Flaming Lake, that sees the full light of day on The Doomsday Machine. And quickly eclipses it. More of a culmination than a soundtrack to the Apocalypse, this is a gloriously monolithic, and intergalactic, march that does more than lay waste. It cleans the slate. ($53.99)

Morgion: Cloaked by Ages, Crowned in Earth (Color) (LP) http://www.allthatisheavy.com/info.asp?item_num=ATH-8945

Limited edition of only 100 copies with black and white splatter on translucent olive green vinyl. When you listen to a Morgion album, the closest thing you get to Californian opulence is the fog enshrouded Sierra Nevada. Once a perfect example of heaviness put to effective use, Morgion have, with their latest release, learned the fine art of employing sparse, subtle guitar atmosphere. They convey a genuine sense of the epic and the world historical. The band have often spoken of the earth, literal and metaphorical, as a primary musical influence, and it shows in their washed out, earthy music: the songs fairly reek of soil and sediment, the odor of rain and pine needles. Some of the riffs are so rustic, they're only a slide guitar and a twang away from alt-country, and the growls of old are largely supplanted by folksy singing provided by Dwayne Boardman and Gary Griffith. The average Morgion song is like a walk through the woods under the stars: dark, eerie, and intermittently inspiring. ($23.99)

Burning Witch: Self Titled (LP Box Set) http://www.allthatisheavy.com/info.asp?item_num=ATH-8936

Features a 40 page booklet, live DVD and four 180gr. vinyl albums. Although Burning Witch only actually existed for a short period of time (1995–1998) the absolutely crushing impact they left is immense! This box compiles every authorized (ie: listenable) recording the band ever made. ($110.99)

Sonic Flower: Self Titled (Re-issue) (CD) http://www.allthatisheavy.com/info.asp?item_num=ATH-8938

Limited edition of only 500 hand numbered copies. Sonic Flower from Japan featuring Church of Misery members is a great stonerrific guitar rock instrumental outfit on par with bands like Atomic Bitchwax and Elternal Elysium as far as shredding guitar tone and riffs go. ($12.99)

Electric Moon: The Doomsday Machine (CD) http://www.allthatisheavy.com/info.asp?item_num=ATH-8926

Put down the freak flags and pick up your "The End is Nigh" signs, for The Doomsday Machine is here. Electric Moon is back already and casting a long, dark shadow. There's been a slow boiling darkness in Electric Moon, brought even closer to the surface on this year's Flaming Lake, that sees the full light of day on The Doomsday Machine. And quickly eclipses it. More of a culmination than a soundtrack to the Apocalypse, this is a gloriously monolithic, and intergalactic, march that does more than lay waste. It cleans the slate. ($25.99)

Electric Moon: Flaming Lake (2LP) http://www.allthatisheavy.com/info.asp?item_num=ATH-8932

Limited edition of only 500 copies on 150gr. vinyl. Recorded at the Open Air in Battenberg on July 2, 2011. The four tracks on Electric Moon's Flaming Lake are a bit like staring into the raw nebular elements of creation — just extended jams, recorded live by guitarist Dave "Sula Bassana" Schmidt. Everything is unpolished, everything sounds made up on the spot. It's fantastically spontaneous and freaked way the hell out. ($34.99)

Rotor: Festsaal Kreuzberg (CD) http://www.allthatisheavy.com/info.asp?item_num=ATH-8924

A set recorded in their hometown at the venue for which the album is named on Nov. 14, 2009, Festsaal Kreuzberg affirms the chemistry that has developed over the last decade-plus between the three members of Rotor. The nine tracks draw exclusively from 3 and 4 and sound crisp and clear but still definitively live, and the whole of Festsaal Kreuzberg has an organic flow that matches well the band's balance between progressive structuring and riff-based heaviness. Fans and followers of Rotor who've never had the chance to see them live probably won't find the whole of the experience replicated here – never having seen them (yet), I can't say for sure either way – but for an instrumental band who has always shown it's the music that matters, the music continues to be what matters on Festsaal Kreuzberg. ($14.99)

Rotor: Festsaal Kreuzberg (LP) http://www.allthatisheavy.com/info.asp?item_num=ATH-8925

Cherry Choke: A Night in the Arms of Venus (LP) http://www.allthatisheavy.com/info.asp?item_num=ATH-8930

Deluxe gatefold sleeve. Sophomore release from heavy garage psychedelic rockers, Cherry Choke. Features Mat Bethancourt from the bands Josiah, The Beginning and The Kings of Frog Island. ($16.99)

Siena Root: Root Jam (2LP) http://www.allthatisheavy.com/info.asp?item_num=ATH-8931

Limited edition on color vinyl. Deluxe gatefold sleeve. This extensive double live album is a resume of Siena Root's early years. This album features all the elements of the band, from their debut up to recent days. They have managed to pour the band's dynamic energy from the stage right into this box of root rock. You will for sure find the good old heavy riffs, side-by-side with psychedelic vibes and groovy jams. ($36.99)

Wooden Shjips: West (LP) http://www.allthatisheavy.com/info.asp?item_num=ATH-8933

Their music lends itself to exploration. It is both transformative and transporting, the sum being far greater than its parts. The steady driving rhythms are the elliptical motion machine driven by the often thick and distorted guitar lines, melodic and boundless. Where they may lead cannot be anticipated but following them is exhilarating. It's all about getting there, the destination, while the experience of getting there is an adventure. It is the guitar lines that guide both the listener and the band on the literal and metaphorical journey into the vastness. The ghostly vocals, obscured by dense layers of instruments surrounding them, are alluring with their airy mystery. This elusive quality further draws the listener in, while they attempt to grasp at their meaning. While indebted to both the psych music of the '60s and mid-'70s, electric Neil Young, and even the induced travels of Spacemen 3, the Wooden Shjips' music is modern and in every way their own. West is an epic journey to the edge and beyond. ($19.99)

Boris: New Album (2LP) http://www.allthatisheavy.com/info.asp?item_num=ATH-8934

Deluxe gatefold sleeve. New Album, to put it plainly, is a sheer joy to listen to. Oddly enough, it could easily be described as the band's "pop album," featuring chilled melodies, uplifting beats, and short and quick bursts of saccharine coated gooey pop goodness. Have no fear, while on the surface it lacks that heavy Boris feel, the impetuous charm still rises to the top. After all, Boris always bring the quirky and off-kilter in spades, and New Album exemplifies that fact, magnifying it to an obscene amount. ($28.99)

Danava: Hemisphere of Shadows (CD) http://www.allthatisheavy.com/info.asp?item_num=ATH-8923

Danava have always been able to separate themselves from other Iommi-inspired retro rockers by infusing an unabashed weirdness into all that they do. Hemisphere of Shadows, the Portland band's third full length and first since 2008's UnonoU, is no exception, and, in fact, the addition of a second guitarist (Andrew Forgash) means the blitzkrieg of riffs are now twined-out to inflict a maximum assault of strange. With a much shorter run-time than previous albums and a decidedly tighter focus, Hemisphere of Shadows finds Danava reigning in their druggy psych-metal jams without strangling them, and without stripping them of their cosmic, downer, prog, and occult flourishes. ($13.99)

Burning Saviours: Forbannelsen (7") http://www.allthatisheavy.com/info.asp?item_num=ATH-8929

Limited edition of only 400 copies on black vinyl. Two new tracks from one of Sweden's most renowned doom rock bands. This is the first in a series of four releases with coherent artwork. The remaining three will be released during 2012. ($8.99)

Loincloth: Iron Balls of Steel (CD) http://www.allthatisheavy.com/info.asp?item_num=ATH-8935

Instru-metal/progressive act Loincloth formed following the demise of Raleigh, North Carolina-based death/doom act Confessor. Confessors' drummer Steve Shelton and guitarist Cary Rowells were recruited by Richmond, Virginia-area guitarists Tannon Penland (Kenmores, Koszonom) and Pen Rollings (Breadwinner, Honor Role, Butterglove). ($13.99)

Loincloth: Iron Balls of Steel (LP) http://www.allthatisheavy.com/info.asp?item_num=ATH-8937

Anywhere: Pyramid Mirrors (7") http://www.allthatisheavy.com/info.asp?item_num=ATH-8928

Super nice silk screened covers with silk screened insert and free sticker. Limited edition one-time pressing of only 500 copies on black vinyl. Artwork by Alan Forbes. Signed and numbered by Alan Forbes. The "supergroup" project, ANYWHERE, consists of Christian Eric Beaulieu (Triclops!, Liquid Indian) and Cedric Bixler Zavala (The Mars Volta, At The Drive In) are joined by Mike Watt (The Minutemen, fIREHOSE, The Stooges) and Rachel Fannan (ex-Sleepy Sun). Recorded by Toshi Kasai (The Melvins, Shrinebuilder). ($8.99)

Electric Wizard: Self Titled (Re-issue) (LP) http://www.allthatisheavy.com/info.asp?item_num=ATH-8913

Black vinyl. Deluxe gatefold sleeve. Classic first album by doom's ultra legends, Electric Wizard. ($31.99)

Samsara Blues Experiment: Long Distance Trip (Color) (LP) http://www.allthatisheavy.com/info.asp?item_num=ATH-8921

Limited edition of only 100 copies on white vinyl. This title is already out of print and will only be available while current supplies last! Samsara Blues Experiment have more on offer than extended psych jams and apex builds. With an assortment of organs, synths, sitars, tanbouras and effects strewn throughout their full-length, Samsara Blues Experiment deliver. ($42.99)

Samsara Blues Experiment: Revelation and Mystery (LP) http://www.allthatisheavy.com/info.asp?item_num=ATH-8919

Black vinyl. Deluxe gatefold sleeve. Right from its start, Revelation and Mystery sees the four-piece layering guitar effects and infusing their parts with swirls and a spaced-out feel. It's not that they've completely changed their methodology so much as they've shifted the balance within their sound. These structural elements were certainly present on Long-Distance Trip, but a cut like the semi-acoustic "Thirsty Moon" shows that Samasara Blues Experiment are able to work within these parameters to grow their songwriting. One gets the sense in listening to opener "Flipside Apocalypse" that this process is just beginning and that the band are still finding out what they want their sound to be, but that only makes Revelation and Mystery a more immediate, direct experience; the linearity of the album unfolding gradually as the songs move from the straightforward into the more sublimely jammed. ($34.99)

Cathedral: Anniversary (CD Box Set) http://www.allthatisheavy.com/info.asp?item_num=ATH-8903

Live at Cathedral's 20th Anniversary concert at Academy in London on December 3, 2010. This deluxe boxset features Dave Pathcett's artwork as individual mini gatefold sleeves for the CDs, a 40 page booklet and a gig poster replica. Earlier this year, UK mainstays and international cult act Cathedral, announced that 2011 would be their final year as a live band. Yes, after a twenty-one year career they have decided to call it a day with a final studio album in the pipeline to be recorded in 2012. Captured here in all their raw and live glory at Islington Academy, London. December 2010, "Anniversary" is the first official live (double) album to be ever released by Cathedral, which will no doubt delight fans around the world. ($31.99)

Siena Root: Root Jam (2CD) http://www.allthatisheavy.com/info.asp?item_num=ATH-8902

This extensive double live album is a resume of Siena Root's early years. This album features all the elements of the band, from their debut up to recent days. They have managed to pour the band's dynamic energy from the stage right into this box of root rock. You will for sure find the good old heavy riffs, side-by-side with psychedelic vibes and groovy jams. ($23.99)

Black Rainbows: Supermothafuzzalicious!! (CD) http://www.allthatisheavy.com/info.asp?item_num=ATH-8907

For fans of Kyuss, Fu Manchu, MC5, Blue Cheer, and The Stooges. ($14.99)

Black Rainbows: Supermothafuzzalicious!! (Color) (2LP) http://www.allthatisheavy.com/info.asp?item_num=ATH-8914

Limited edition of only 500 copies on color vinyl. Deluxe gatefold sleeve. For fans of Kyuss, Fu Manchu, MC5, Blue Cheer, and The Stooges. ($35.99)

Bang: Death of a Country (Color) (LP) http://www.allthatisheavy.com/info.asp?item_num=ATH-8912

Color vinyl. Deluxe gatefold sleeve. As can be heard, Death of a Country was a highly impressive debut album. The band have said that the two strongest influences on their early sound were The Beatles and Black Sabbath, and that potent combination - melody and power, subtlety and aggression - was apparent on pretty much all of the material. 'My Window' and 'Certainly Meaningless' were beguiling slices of post-psychedelic hard rock, with the latter featuring accomplished vocal harmonies as well as some cryptic lyrics that lived up to the song's title. 'No Trespassing' and 'Life On Ending' both showcased the band's enviable lightness of touch, with some blasting Tony Iommi-style riffs incorporated seamlessly into what were essentially tender hard rock ballads. Album closer 'Future Song' was another fascinating creation, with the band moving convincingly into the same space-rock territory as Hawkwind and early Pink Floyd. ($31.99)

Incredible Hog: Volume 1 +4 (w/ Bonus 10 inch) (Color) (LP) http://www.allthatisheavy.com/info.asp?item_num=ATH-8915

Translucent blue vinyl. Includes a bonus 10 inch. Deluxe gatefold sleeve. 12" x 12" booklet. Like so many early '70s bands, the three-piece London-based group Incredible Hog were a by-product of the '60s British Blues Boom. In an attempt to mix melodic pop with heavy rock and intelligent, meaningful lyrics, guitarist/vocalist Ken Gordon and bassist Jim Holmes formed Incredible Hog in early 1972. The name is a play on the then highly popular 'Incredible Hulk' comic book series. Their Volume 1 album (originally released in 1973), has gone on be heralded as a cult classic of proto metal meets heavy glam/blues rock. ($36.99)

Datura: Visions for the Celestial (LP) http://www.allthatisheavy.com/info.asp?item_num=ATH-8916

This is a cosmic stoner groove bliss-out at its very best. Visions for the Celestial is a journey that has a natural flow and growth to it as it develops from bass heavy stoner grooves to cosmic bliss out and if you reach for the replay button on reaching the end go with the flow and do it. ($28.99)

Space Debris: Deepest View (Archive Volume Three) (CD) http://www.allthatisheavy.com/info.asp?item_num=ATH-8906

Third installment of the Archives series. Space Debris create a dazzling and complicated blend of 70's style classic rock jams, Krautrock, space rock, psychedelia and fusion jazz. It's mostly instrumental, with tracks often stretching into the 15 and 20-minute range, but never seeming that long. Influences range from Amon Duul and Can on the one hand to a psychedelicious take on the Santana, Allman Brothers, and early Deep Purple stylings. ($28.99)

My Brother the Wind: I Wash My Soul in the Stream of Infinity (CD) http://www.allthatisheavy.com/info.asp?item_num=ATH-8901

Brothers and sisters, here's one to bathe in for infinity. My Brother the Wind (with members of Anekdoten, Magnolia and Makajodama) drop the hypnotic I Wash My Soul in The Stream of Infinity, a swirling mix of space and psych rock that veers into prog tinged jams that never outstay their welcome. A very warm welcome. ($17.99)

Whitehorse: Progression (Color) (LP) http://www.allthatisheavy.com/info.asp?item_num=ATH-8911

Limited edition of only 500 copies. Black swirls on translucent blue vinyl. Includes a MP3 card. Heavy is sound, heavy is doom, heavy is serene, heavy is space, heavy is motherfucking Whitehorse and their epic release Progression. This album is a UFO created by cosmic riffs that have the power to elevate your mind and spirit to other planes of existence. At times, Whitehorse makes me feel like I'm meditating with the demons in the dark places of my mind. The vocals on this album are blackened to the max and sound very poisonous. ($17.99)

The Locked Ward: Voyages Into the Inner Psych of... (Color) (LP) http://www.allthatisheavy.com/info.asp?item_num=ATH-8917

Limited edition of only 100 copies on color vinyl. John McBain is a guest guitarist on track 2. Heavy and dark English psyche from the mental asylums of Norfolk. Brought up on the Syd era Floyd, Ozzy era Sabbabth, Spids Nogenhat, Pandemonica, Aron, Ontrial, Baby Woodrose and early Monster Magnet, The Locked Ward bring their own unique style to the psyche genre. The Locked Ward are also influenced by the countless '60s psyche bands like Third Bardo, Painted Faces, Lost and Found, 13th Floor Elevators, Open Mind. ($40.99)

The Locked Ward: Voyages Into the Inner Psych of... (CD) http://www.allthatisheavy.com/info.asp?item_num=ATH-8908

John McBain is a guest guitarist on track 2. Heavy and dark English psyche from the mental asylums of Norfolk. Brought up on the Syd era Floyd, Ozzy era Sabbabth, Spids Nogenhat, Pandemonica, Aron, Ontrial, Baby Woodrose and early Monster Magnet, The Locked Ward bring their own unique style to the psyche genre. The Locked Ward are also influenced by the countless '60s psyche bands like Third Bardo, Painted Faces, Lost and Found, 13th Floor Elevators, Open Mind. ($25.99)

Papir: Stundum (2LP) http://www.allthatisheavy.com/info.asp?item_num=ATH-8918

With their minimalistic track titles, organically-evolving song structures and many mood shifts, it is scarcely appropriate to attempt a track-by-track analysis of Stundum. While there are thundering riffs and soaring wah-wah passages, it is by no means all sturm und drang, with numerous atmostheric break-down passages and even elements of Czukay/Liebzeit rhythm-section funkiness. From the opening cymbal crashes, locked bass grooves and soaring guitar of Sunday #1 to the ambient drones of (relatively) brief epilogue Tuesday #2, there are simply no boring bits on Stundum. Neither is there any sign of overblown histrionic pretension. However, there is plenty of enormous, and brilliantly executed, psychedelic guitar rock which demands frequent and repeated listening. For me, Papir are strong contenders for discovery of the year, and their album will likely receive regular block-bookings on my player. I can hardly wait for the follow-up! ($35.99)

Thalamus: Subterfuge (CD) http://www.allthatisheavy.com/info.asp?item_num=ATH-8904

While many '70s inspired stoner bands with a grunge component shift more towards the alternative rock in their development, Thalamus is going back to their early roots. The debut album 'Beneath A Dying Sun' was a mix of The Quill, Spiritual Beggars and Soundgarden, with some basic elements of Black Sabbath and Led Zeppelin. This next album 'Subterfuge' contains a decreasing influence of the '90s, replaced by more Blue Cheer and Cream-like stuff, which is a sound maybe even more fitting for the guys. This is an absolute must for everyone into high-quality heavy, '70s inspired rock with balls. ($17.99)

Johnfish Sparkle: Flow (CD) http://www.allthatisheavy.com/info.asp?item_num=ATH-8909

Italian power trio Johnfish Sparkle bring the blues-rock and riffs on their second outing, Flow. Falling in line with recent releases by label-mates Gordon Fights and Jeremy Irons and the Ratgang Malibus, with the more progressive elements toned down, Flow is pretty much a straight-up rock outing with one toe in the '70s pool and another in the here and now. Firmly rooted, but with some Zeppelin-y bluster thrown in, Johnfish Sparkle join their comrades in resurrecting those sounds with an eye on continuing what really is a traditional sound. It's not all bombast though, with many cuts having some more languid, though electric and bluesy, breaks and Gaudi's Run going for some acoustic picking for a different side of the swagger. ($17.99)

Gordon Fights: Self Titled (CD) http://www.allthatisheavy.com/info.asp?item_num=ATH-8922

What you buy here is ten perfectly crafted rock gems with a southern blues spin, not a single one of which would sound out of place on nearly any classic 1970's rock 'n' roll album you could care to mention. Rolling Stones' 'Exile On Mainstreet'-era, Led Zeppelin, Lynyrd Skynyrd, Humble Pie, Atomic Rooster....GORDON FIGHTS wear their influences on their sleeve with pride. One of their strengths is to play their soulful blues-based rock with a swagger and natural approach that other bands would die for - even though GORDON FIGHTS came into being little more than three years ago. ($17.99)

Chillihounds: Shake Your Skull (CD) http://www.allthatisheavy.com/info.asp?item_num=ATH-8905

"Shake Your Skull" is classic rock for a new generation. Even though the foundation lies steadily upon the heaviness of Black Sabbath and the riffing rampage is similar to early AC/DC, what makes this ten track onslaught unforgettable is the sonically in-yer-face production. To top it all of, the soaring vocals sounds like they belong to the long lost twin brother of Glenn Danzig or Ian Astbury (The Cult), making this a must hear for a new generation of riff loving fans. Even though the focus is set on the crunching sheer power of hard rock, a song like "Evil Mind Blues" pays respect to the laid back feel of southern rock, while the pumping groove of "Heartbeater" is music made for filling dance floors around the world. Nevertheless, what makes "Shake Your Skull" stand out in a crowd is because its filled to the brim with unforgettable choruses you can clench your fist and sing along to. ($17.99)

Vidunder: Asmodeus (7") http://www.allthatisheavy.com/info.asp?item_num=ATH-8910

Vidunder plays 70's rock with influences deeply rooted in the early days of bluesy rock bands like Captain Beyond and Blue Cheer. The record has an authentic vintage feel to it bringing the thoughts back to country fellows Witchcraft, and maybe even the predecessors Norrsken. And just like label mates Horisont, this trio too write songs in both English and Swedish. The first track, Asmodeus, kicks off right from the start with a great mesmerizing riff, à la 13th Floor Elevators, carving its way through your mind and right 'til the end. The second track, Witches' Shuffle, has got a bluesier and heavier feel to it. ($6.99)

Black Pyramid: II (CD) http://www.allthatisheavy.com/info.asp?item_num=ATH-8999

Following a string of limited edition vinyl releases, Black Pyramid has returned with their highly anticipated sophomore album. Appropriately titled "II", this is the album that Black Pyramid was born to make. Galloping metal anthems, skull-crushing epic doom and fuzzed-out psychedelia played expertly through the thickest and meanest production you've ever heard. ($12.99)

Wo Fat: The Gathering Dark (Color) (2LP) http://www.allthatisheavy.com/info.asp?item_num=ATH-8896

Limited edition of only 100 copies on color vinyl. Deluxe gatefold sleeve. Exclusive vinyl only bonus track. This title is already out of print and will only be available while current supplies last! A bubbling psychedelic brew of heavy riff- rock and electric fuzzed-out blues. Inspired by Captain Beyond, Leslie West, ZZ Top, John Lee Hooker, Howlin Wolf, Son House and Mississippi Fred McDowell with the riffage of more contemporary masters like Sleep, Kyuss and Fu Manchu. They also possess knowledge of the archaic arts of analog recording and vacuum tube amplification. ($60.99)

Sunn0))): 00Void (Re-issue with Bonus CD) (2CD) http://www.allthatisheavy.com/info.asp?item_num=ATH-8900

Includes the bonus disc "The Iron Soul of Nothing", a remix of 00Void by Steven Stapleton and Colin Potter from the band, Nurse with Wound. Limited edition of 1000 numerated copies. I had not heard anything like this album before this disc started spinning in my CD-player. Think SLEEP without drums and vocals goin' at it in an extremely slow pace. This album is filled with lots of low-end ambience and it seems like the music has been recorded in layer after layer after layer. ($16.99)

The Devil's Blood: The Thousandfold Epicentre (2LP) http://www.allthatisheavy.com/info.asp?item_num=ATH-8887

Features a 12" twenty-four page booklet. Deluxe gatefold sleeve. For all our readers with ADD: yes The Thousandfold Epicentre is a brilliant album, yes it gets a 10 and yes you should buy it immediately. So order the album, and then get back here to read the entire review. I got into The Devil's Blood when listening to The Time Of No Time Evermore. I got the demo of course, and Come, Reap, but I really started enjoying them with The Time Of No Time Evermore. Why? Because they managed to equal international (and historical) like-minded acts like Jex Thoth, Blood Ceremony, Coven, Black Widow, Roky Erickson, be it musically or inspirationally. The Graveyard Shuffle, I'll Be Your Ghost and the aforementioned releases gain in my opinion from the quality of the stellar The Time Of No Time Evermore album. And now there is The Thousandfold Epicentre. I'll try to calm my enthusiasm, but in every way it's a very important release, both for the band as for the nice niche of occult rock that The Devil's Blood now commands. ($47.99)

Trouble: Black Shapes of Doom (Color) (2LP) http://www.allthatisheavy.com/info.asp?item_num=ATH-8897

Limited edition of only 150 copies on translucent blue vinyl. Deluxe gatefold sleeve. Tracks 1 through 12 were recorded live in Dallas, Texas on March 12, 1990. Tracks 13 through 16 were recorded live at the Alamo Ballroom in Aurora, Illnois on October 26, 1982. These three tracks feature Jeff Olson on drums and Ian Brown on bass. ($43.99)

Aldebaran: Buried Beneath Aeons (LP) http://www.allthatisheavy.com/info.asp?item_num=ATH-8895

Limited edition of only 500 copies on 180gr. vinyl. Deluxe gatefold sleeve. Includes a poster. An eldritch call from the Mountains of Madness! Returning from the depths of R'lyeh, Aldebaran return with a new "EP". Moving in a more aesthetic and atmospheric direction than previous efforts, Buired Beneathe Aeons is slow, monolithic doom. ($14.99)

Subrosa: No Help for the Mighty Ones (2LP) http://www.allthatisheavy.com/info.asp?item_num=ATH-8892

Limited edition of only 400 copies on black vinyl. Deluxe gatefold sleeve. Easily delivering their most accomplished and most entrancing album yet, the female dominated doom contingent are destined to bring even more awareness to their brand of spellbinding amplifier worship. By delivering their heaviest release to date, SUBROSA's music is a culmination of supernatural down-tuned guitar and low-end bass, the dark air of two eerie violins, thunderous raw percussion, and seductive female vocals. To get a glimpse of the diabolical sound that SUBROSA conjure, imagine a haunting mix of PJ HARVEY, KYUSS, L7, COVEN, and Appalachian Murder Ballads filtered through the ghostly vibes of American gothic tragedy. ($28.99)

Samsara Blues Experiment: Revelation and Mystery (CD) http://www.allthatisheavy.com/info.asp?item_num=ATH-8883

Right from its start, Revelation and Mystery sees the four-piece layering guitar effects and infusing their parts with swirls and a spaced-out feel. It's not that they've completely changed their methodology so much as they've shifted the balance within their sound. These structural elements were certainly present on Long-Distance Trip, but a cut like the semi-acoustic "Thirsty Moon" shows that Samasara Blues Experiment are able to work within these parameters to grow their songwriting. One gets the sense in listening to opener "Flipside Apocalypse" that this process is just beginning and that the band are still finding out what they want their sound to be, but that only makes Revelation and Mystery a more immediate, direct experience; the linearity of the album unfolding gradually as the songs move from the straightforward into the more sublimely jammed. ($27.99)

Rue: Thorns (CD) http://www.allthatisheavy.com/info.asp?item_num=ATH-8899

Rue from Akron, Ohio are quite the achievers and one of the best kept secrets of the underground heavy music scene. The band has been together for at least 8 years and kept the same line-up (or close to it at least) for all that time but very few people have ever acknowledged how good they are. This is likely to change now with the release of 'Thorns,' the long-awaited second full-length album from the band. The first full length came out in 2003 so this a long-time coming but the wait has been worth it, this is a great album. 'Thorns' is an angry, filthy album that also has a quality production and is full of ear-catching melodies, guitar dynamics, tempo changes, and changes in genre direction. It is a slightly progressive sludge-metal album that easily switches gear into full-blown doom at times and they cover sounds and styles that range from Eyehategod to Mastodon to everything in-between. ($12.99)

Morkobot: Morbo (with Bonus CD) (LP) http://www.allthatisheavy.com/info.asp?item_num=ATH-8881

Limited edition of only 200 hand numbered copies on black vinyl. Includes a CD of the album. Handmade silk screened cover. NOTE: The free CD version is not the full retail version of the CD. It is a CD copy of the album included within the sleeve as a means of easily ripping your own MP3s. It does not include the jewel case or CD booklet, just the CD itself. 2011 marks the return of Morkobot, bringing forth their heaviest, most focused and most adventurous music ever. Enter, Morbo. After the previous one track album Morto, Morbo (latin for disease) consists of seven cacophonous songs in which the psychedelic attitude of the first Trilogy (Morkobot - Mostro - Morto albums) is dried to expose the bones and nerves of a more intricate, but at the same time more straightforward and focused music, skillfully assembled by the two bass guitars and drum kit. The result is a raw yet complex low end sound, interesting to hear as the spectrum of it becomes pure and essential so that Morbo will modify quickly the way you're used to hear music. Known for carving a sonic language of their own, Morkobot's fourth album takes their sound to new depths and offers a different way of approaching heavy music. ($42.99)

Mastodon: The Hunter (LP) http://www.allthatisheavy.com/info.asp?item_num=ATH-8894

140gr. vinyl. Includes the "Augmented Reality Experience". It is difficult to choose one Mastodon LP that The Hunter most reflects. When you look at tracks like "Stargasm", the Title Track and "Bedazzled Fingernails" you recognise the spacey timbre that was present on Crack The Skye, and Sci-Fi horror elements that would have fit in nicely with the downright weird storyline that was explored on Crack The Skye. Tracks like "Black Tongue", which are finally given a context, seem like more of a throwback to the doom-style riffage of Crystal Skull, rather than a risky delving into Trivium-style two-part guitar harmonies over chugging power chords; a formula that has been well flogged over the years and is as boring now as it sounds. ($30.99)

Frogskin / Demonic Death Judge / Semtex: 3 Way Split (CD) http://www.allthatisheavy.com/info.asp?item_num=ATH-8890

A way cool split involving three unsigned Finnish bands that explore and interpret sludge in different ways. Although, they share the ability of building up walls of monster, molasse-like riffs as well as a common love for massive fuzz-driven groove: Demonic Death Judge, Semtex and Frogskin. Demonic Death Judge's sound is downtuned, dynamic, and only marginally sludgy, especially if compared with the other two bands. The tight, epic riffage leading the melodies in this band is simple and addictive and is continuously changing pace to keep the tension high. The heavy, catchy fuzzy riffs and the great thick bass are of Sabbathian memory, but in "Kneel", they are often played with a boost, as in a band like Goatsnake. ($12.99)

HeavyPink: Flower and Song (7") http://www.allthatisheavy.com/info.asp?item_num=ATH-8889

Limited edition of only 300 copies. Includes a sticker and a MP3 card. Self-titled debut 7" from HeavyPink, the latest project of T. Dallas Reed (Stone Axe, Mos Generator) features two brand new cuts, "Flower and Song" and "There is a Light," exploring a rarely-heard psychedelic side of the Port Orchard, Washington, native's songwriting. Reed, who is notoriously DIY, played all the instruments on HeavyPink, sang himself, and recorded the material at his own HeavyHead studio. Fans of Stone Axe will be thrilled to discover that although he is working in a different style, the signature elements of Reed's work remain intact, most pivotally that there's zero bullshit involved. ($11.99)

OvO: First Ten Years (DVD) http://www.allthatisheavy.com/info.asp?item_num=ATH-8884

Elder: Dead Roots Stirring (Color) (2LP) http://www.allthatisheavy.com/info.asp?item_num=ATH-9990

Limited edition of only 200 copies on translucent green vinyl. Deluxe gatefold sleeve. I must confess I am lost for words to describe this masterpiece from Elder. Some bands match expectations with new releases, some disappoint but Elder have exceeded all possible expectations with 'Dead Roots Stirring'. Their last album was amazing in as much as the band was very young as a band and as individuals; now some time has passed and they have progressed into one of the finest heavy bands in the world. ($43.99)

Yob: Live at Roadburn 2010 (with Bonus DVD) (2CD) http://www.allthatisheavy.com/info.asp?item_num=ATH-8879

Includes a bonus DVD of the performance. "We're gonna play four songs and that will be one hour" says Yob mainman Mike Scheidt at the beginning of this Roadburn 2010 set, thus letting the audience know exactly what to expect – cosmic, sprawling psychedelic doom of the highest order (no pun intended). Yob are an intimidatingly dense enough proposition when recorded in a studio, and live they pull no punches and give no quarter. Yob are a well-oiled, fluid doom metal machine, and on Live At Roadburn 2010 they prove it effortlessly to both your ears and your eyes. A more involved analysis of the sonic nuances of the tracks is simply not needed, suffice to say that if you like Yob and you know the tracks, you won't be disappointed…hell, even if you DON'T know the tracks, you STILL won't be! ($16.99)

Fu Manchu: The Covers (LP) http://www.allthatisheavy.com/info.asp?item_num=ATH-8878

Limited edition of only 700 copies on black vinyl. Career-spanning collection of the band's various hard-to-find or previously unreleased covers of tracks by Thin Lizzy, Black Flag, the Cars, Devo, the Adolescents, and many more! ($12.99)

Sigiriya: Return to Earth (CD) http://www.allthatisheavy.com/info.asp?item_num=ATH-8854

Features members of Acrimony. Deluxe mini-gatefold packaging. The much-missed British stoner rock outfit Acrimony released their last studio full-length in 1996's Tumuli Shroomaroom. Splits followed with Iron Rainbow and Church of Misery, and the Leaf Hound Records compilation Bong on – Live Long! followed in 2007, but the band effectively broke up in 2002, so the return of four out of the original five Acrimony members in the new band Sigiriya is welcome news for any worshiper of the riff, whether they were a fan of Acrimony or not. Only guitarist Lee Davies is missing from Sigiriya's debut, Return to Earth, but the remaining four-piece is no less cohesive for the lack of a second guitar. ($16.99)

Eternal Elysium: Searching Low and High (Color) (2LP) http://www.allthatisheavy.com/info.asp?item_num=ATH-8875

Limited edition of only 100 copies with swirled colored vinyl. Deluxe gatefold sleeve. Japan's Eternal Elysium returns after a three year absence with Searching Low and High, their fourth album. Their last two albums, 2000's Spiritualized D and 2002's Share, are heralded as benchmarks in the realm of heavy psych rock. Although the sound's a bit more streamlined and straightforward, there are still plenty of moments where guitarist Yukito Okazaki creates a sonic tapestry of beautiful noise. New bassist Tana Haugo acquits herself nicely, meshing perfectly with drummer Antonio Ishikawa and adding a thick groove. Actually, groove's the most important aspect of Searching Low and High. Whether it's a moody acoustic number or a guitar driven rocker, Eternal Elysium make sure the music keeps you moving. In the end, they make music that hits the head and the heart. ($31.99)

Been Obscene: Night O'Mine (CD) http://www.allthatisheavy.com/info.asp?item_num=ATH-8871

Been Obscene has shown an impressive amount of development – the instrumentalization has moved up a few notches at once, the drumming has taken a flying leap forward and the psychedelic and post-rock pastures are spread more evenly and enhances the flavor quite a bit. The album is much more vocal-driven than the previous one, but that doesn't mean the instrumental passages have lessened. In fact, the instrumental passages have, if anything, grown more complex, with at least two instances of multi-layered, psychedelic pastures being explored in what are otherwise pretty straightforward songs. This provides the record with enough dynamism to engage you, but keeps it from going places that will lose you on the way – and, might I add, the atmosphere built is a lot darker and more brooding than you'd expect, and it comes off as a great big plus. ($14.99)

Danava: Hemisphere of Shadows (LP) http://www.allthatisheavy.com/info.asp?item_num=ATH-8869

Limited edition of only 1000 handnumbered copies. Danava have always been able to separate themselves from other Iommi-inspired retro rockers by infusing an unabashed weirdness into all that they do. Hemisphere of Shadows, the Portland band's third full length and first since 2008's UnonoU, is no exception, and, in fact, the addition of a second guitarist (Andrew Forgash) means the blitzkrieg of riffs are now twined-out to inflict a maximum assault of strange. With a much shorter run-time than previous albums and a decidedly tighter focus, Hemisphere of Shadows finds Danava reigning in their druggy psych-metal jams without strangling them, and without stripping them of their cosmic, downer, prog, and occult flourishes. ($19.99)

7Zuma7: Deep Inside (Re-issue) (Color) (LP) http://www.allthatisheavy.com/info.asp?item_num=ATH-8868

Limited edition of only 500 copies on 180gr. purple vinyl. When people talk about the European stoner rock scene, they're talking about 7Zuma7, one of the epicenters of fuzzed-out, stripped-down, retro-heavy riffs. ($36.99)

Baby Woodrose: Love Comes Down (Re-issue) (CD) http://www.allthatisheavy.com/info.asp?item_num=ATH-8866

It's great Baby Woodroose. Short, punchy songs with that garagey, 60's acid feel to it. Lorenzo still sounds a bit like Dave Wyndorf, but he's definitely carving out his own vocal identity. The rest of the band sounds tight throughout. I definitely recommend this to anyone. ($19.99)

Baby Woodrose: Love Comes Down (with Bonus 7 inch) (LP) http://www.allthatisheavy.com/info.asp?item_num=ATH-8867

Limited edition of only 500 copies on black vinyl. Includes a bonus 7 inch. Deluxe gatefold sleeve. It's great Baby Woodroose. Short, punchy songs with that garagey, 60's acid feel to it.

Baby Woodrose: Take it (7") http://www.allthatisheavy.com/info.asp?item_num=ATH-8865

The A-Side is a track from the album simply called Baby Woodrose while the B-side "I Need" is exclusive to Get Hip and was originally recorded for the Love Comes Down album from 2004. It was never used on the album since the drums mysteriously disappeared from the mastertape. The drums were later restored and the song can now be heard for the first time on this single! ($8.99)

Gozu: Locust Season (Color) (LP) http://www.allthatisheavy.com/info.asp?item_num=ATH-8862

Limited edition of only 250 copies with black swirls on 180gr. translucent yellow vinyl. Gozu's debut has a thick as a brick sound that is a straight descendant from Queens of the Stone Age. The majority of the time, the band hits hard enough and loads the songs up with catchy riffs and vocal lines that you don't mind the close proximity to "Regular John" and "Mexicola" and the like. ($25.99)

Ironweed: Your World of Tomorrow (Color) (LP) http://www.allthatisheavy.com/info.asp?item_num=ATH-8863

Limited edition of only 250 copies with black and white swirls on 180gr. green vinyl. Deluxe gatefold sleeve. With the Demise of Greatdayforup, the core group of Mike Vitali and Brendan Slater began the arduous task of assembling a heavier, tighter band. The timely demise of another Albany favorite, Held Under, added to the mix, along with the addition of the exceptional vocal chords of Jeff Andrews. The considerable skills of second guitarist Ryan Rapp filled out the Ironweed sound , adding a mind-blowing new dimension to the titanic rock that these upsate New Yorkers make. Dan Dinsmore later joined behind the drums adding the final ingredient to Ironweed's powerhouse sound, just in time for "Your World Tomorrow". It reflects the band's heaviest efforts, and after 2008's "Indian Ladder" that's saying something. With nine brutal tracks in all, "Your World Tomorrow" is a sonic assault. Each song delivers thick and sludgy riffs amped up behind a thunderous low end and enough power to spin the planet the other way. ($25.99)

The Black Angels: Another Nice Pair (LP) http://www.allthatisheavy.com/info.asp?item_num=ATH-8864

Collecting The Black Angels' first two EPs on a single album, Another Nice Pair, stands as a potent document of the band's formative psych-rock sound. Presented as a vinyl "double EP," the A side includes key tracks from the critically acclaimed debut album, Passover, in addition to the non-album jam "Winter '68". The B side flip presents the original Black Angel Exit EP which was available only as a limited edition bonus EP for those who pre-ordered the band's sophomore Directions To See A Ghost LP. This side also includes tracks that were available only as bonus material on the limited edition 3-LP version of Directions To See A Ghost, in addition to the iTunes exclusive "Black Angel Exit/Shine," and a ripping cover of Black Mountain's "No Satisfaction". ($14.99)

The Fucking Wrath: Valley of the Serpent's Soul (CD) http://www.allthatisheavy.com/info.asp?item_num=ATH-8861

Enron got in trouble for it. So did most of Wall Street. And while the art of Valley of the Serpent's Soul isn't exactly a federal offense, some may claim that it borders on deceptive practices. The skulls, dragons and warrior indicate a throwback to a retro-Dio style wail, high-tops, and a hesher type attitude. Make no mistake though, The Fucking Wrath is 100% pure ass-kicking beer-swilling rock-n-roll. Much like their contemporaries Saviours or Red Fang, The Fucking Wrath aren't reinventing the wheel on Valley of the Serpent's Soul, but it's hard to deny tracks with such raw swagger. With a crunchy guitar tone and cigarette-and-whiskey-damaged vocals, tracks like "The Question" make for the perfect soundtrack for a Harley, a fifth of Jack Daniels and a stretch of open road. ($13.99)

Nordic Nomadic: Worldwide Skyline (CD) http://www.allthatisheavy.com/info.asp?item_num=ATH-8859

Solo project from Chad Ross of Quest for Fire. Includes a bonus track. Stepping somewhat outside his role as the frontman and guitarist for Toronto psychedelic pasture-izers Quest for Fire, Chad Ross is the sole figure behind the unsurprisingly more minimal Nordic Nomadic. Fans of the bedroom neo-folk of Comets on Fire guitarist Ben Chasny's ongoing Six Organs of Admittance will recognize and delight in at least some of what Ross has on offer with these nine songs, the drone and subtle interweaving of electric and acoustic guitars and still somewhat lush feel undercutting the notion of Nordic Nomadic as a "solo project". ($13.99)

Spancer: Greater Than the Sun (CD) http://www.allthatisheavy.com/info.asp?item_num=ATH-8855

Deluxe mini-gatefold packaging. Germany's Spancer is not a band you immediately think about when it comes to doom and that's a shame as these guys create some great tunes. Superheavy doom metal with sludge influences that sound immense. It's about time people take notice of these Germans. If you dig Saint Vitus, Electric Wizard, Burning Witch, Iron Monkey, EyeHateGod or Grief you definitely have to hear Spancer. ($16.99)

Serpent Venom: Carnal Altar (CD) http://www.allthatisheavy.com/info.asp?item_num=ATH-8856

Deluxe zine style packaging. A mix between S'70s horror and occult films, psychedelic rock and classic doom. In chapter of the esoteric and cosmic delusions, there isn't more evocative. I wouldn't be surprised if their next album was signed on Rise Above Records. A giant is born. May be the album of the year with Orchid's 'Capricorn'. ($16.99)

Saturnalia Temple: Aion of Drakon (CD) http://www.allthatisheavy.com/info.asp?item_num=ATH-8857

Ok, here's some weird fuzzed-out stoner doom from Sweden's Saturnalia Temple. Slow retro occult shit with a psychedelic bent, invoking the drugged-out spirit of Sabbath, Pentagram, and Electric Wizard with heavy grooves, vintage equipment, and lo-fi production. The vocals are all sorts of fucked up - haunted croons that are soaked in LSD and dripping with effects, and the whole shebang plays out like a deranged satanic ritual from a shitty 70's horror flick. Fucking love it. ($23.99)

Doomdogs: Unleash the Truth (Deluxe Edition) (CD) http://www.allthatisheavy.com/info.asp?item_num=ATH-8849

Limited edition of only 500 copies in deluxe mini-gatefold packaging. The new album 'Unleash the Truth' sounds like Black Sabbath meets Orange Goblin meets Candlemass meets The Sword meets Motorhead. It also features doom-riff-meister Victor Griffin (Pentagram and Place Of Skulls) on solo guitar on one track. Again you will recognize Doomdogs' patented heavy doom 'n' roll style, like taking that early 70's groovy sound and adding a somewhat modern heavy-bottom kickass touch to it. Doomdogs have taken some big steps forward with even stronger and more diversified material. ($16.99)

Master: Self Titled (CD) http://www.allthatisheavy.com/info.asp?item_num=ATH-8852

Limited edition of only 500 copies. Deluxe mini-gatefold with metallic hot foil stamping. Master's debut album is no doubt the most simplistic, easy to understand release the band has pumped out thus far. This album doesn't give a fuck about your feelings, it doesn't give a fuck about your pains or your joys, this album just wants to see you get thrashed, crashed, and violated in an endless mosh pit. Listening to this album is like overdosing on synthetic cocaine after getting the shit beaten out of you by rabid Grateful Dead fans. This album is like getting fried in the electric chair while tripping on PCP. Master's self-titled is nothing but a ruthless, mindless killing machine bend solely on causing bodily pain to your person. Just listen to track nine, "The Truth"...holy shit! OPEN YOUR EYES!!!! CLEAR YOUR FUCKING MIND!!!!! Paul Speckmann is a true lyrical genius. ($16.99)

This album doesn't give a fuck about your feelings, it doesn't give a fuck about your pains or your joys, this album just wants to see you get thrashed, crashed, and violated in an endless mosh pit. Listening to this album is like overdosing on synthetic cocaine after getting the shit beaten out of you by rabid Grateful Dead fans. This album is like getting fried in the electric chair while tripping on PCP. Master's self-titled is nothing but a ruthless, mindless killing machine bend solely on causing bodily pain to your person. Just listen to track nine, "The Truth"...holy shit! OPEN YOUR EYES!!!! CLEAR YOUR FUCKING MIND!!!!! Paul Speckmann is a true lyrical genius. ($21.99)

Ruinebell: Demise in Disgrace (Color) (7") http://www.allthatisheavy.com/info.asp?item_num=ATH-8848

Limited edition of only 500 copies on clear vinyl. Deluxe gatefold sleeve. Ruinebell is a new project from Lasse (Hooded Menace) and Dopi (Dishammer). This is some great dark crust in the tradition of Amebix and Axegrinder. Only 2 songs which I'm hoping is just a taster of things to come. Bring on an LP! ($9.99)

Boris: Black Original Remix (LP) http://www.allthatisheavy.com/info.asp?item_num=ATH-8847

2011 saw the release of a LP called 'New album'. Highly regarded amongst Japanese fans of animation soundtracks the album has been described as a 'virtual trip',, visual music with a defined Japanese aesthetic. The band's dramatic evolution has been a hot topic for discussion amongst fans both old and new in Japan and abroad. The new 12" remix single "Black Original" expands the listener's horizons even further, introducing synthesizers and industrial beats. Highly respected Japanese DJ and producer, Kenji Takimi from the world renowned CRUE-L label, has contributed two mixes under his LUGER E-Go project guise. The "LUGER E-Go Remix" employs crazed tribal drums, new wave funk loops and a hypnotic bass -line to create a charged, psychedelic atmosphere, luring the listener into chaos. Takimi's "LUGER E-Go Re-Boost" pushes things even further, increasing the sense of delirium. ($29.99)

Radio Moscow: Brain Cycles (Color) (LP) http://www.allthatisheavy.com/info.asp?item_num=ATH-8846

Limited edition of only 500 copies on clear vinyl. "Brain Cycles," the band's sophomore recording displays the kind of heavy psychedelic, blues jams their parents or possibly their parents' parents would have smoked grass and jammed out to in the late 60s or early 70s. At a mere twenty-three-years old, guitarist/vocalist Parker Griggs is the oldest member of the band, so this guy's only connection to the early years of heavy blues jam would be through recordings. However, Radio Moscow does not sound like a Johnny-come-lately to this scene. Radio Moscow is primarily the creation of Parker Griggs. Griggs handles guitar, vocals, drums and percussion, and does it with exceptional skill. Zach Anderson provides groovin' bass lines. Each track on "Brain Cycles" features mellow vocals, heavy-yet-bluesy riffs, jazzy drum fills and hazy psychedelics. ($16.99)

Black Cobra: Invernal (CD) http://www.allthatisheavy.com/info.asp?item_num=ATH-8830

No mincy acoustic intros. No hokey spoken word kickoff. The opening barrage of riffs on "Avalanche" is like a shotgun blast of thumb tacks, gravel and raw amphetemine - point blank to the face. The energy is so intense on during the first couple of seconds that I could literally feel my pulse racing. Thirty seconds in, question asked, question answered: Are Black Cobra back and in proper form? FUCK YEAH!! ($13.99)

Radio Moscow: The Great Escape of Leslie Magnafuzz (CD) http://www.allthatisheavy.com/info.asp?item_num=ATH-8821

The Great Escape of Leslie Magnafuzz is a genuinely thrilling follow up to their previous releases, brimming with toe curling Hendrixified guitar soloing and the marijuana and acid laced caterwauling of Blue Cheer, not to mention some seriously impressive blues guitar work ('Deep Down Below') that would make Seasick Stevie green with envy! Zach Anderson plays bass, Cory Berry handles the drums on stage, and Parker plays drums on the album. The wah-and-phased-delirium of an opener 'Little Eyes' (which could have so easily graced Blue Cheer's triumvirate third album Outsideinside) to the funky Grand Funk Railroad vibe of 'Speedfreak', the heavy UK blues-rock vibe of 'Creepin'' (a tune as good as Free at their best) and the amazing guitar driven rattlesnake raga that echoes Peter Green's finest moments with Fleetwood Mac, all add up to a wildly pulsating affair, full of energy, passion and psychedelic electricity! ($17.99)

Features 2 live sets. The now legendary Noothgrush, from the Bay area, was berthed in the spring of 1994 by founding members Gary Niederhoff on bass and Chiyo Nukaga on drums. Over the next year, the band had various other members including Matt Harvey (Exhumed, Repulsion) on second guitar. It wasn't until guitarist Russ Kent joined in early 1995 that the classic Noothgrush lineup was complete! ($12.99)

Rwake: Rest (CD) http://www.allthatisheavy.com/info.asp?item_num=ATH-8823

The four year wait since Voices of Omens is finally over. And the end result couldn't possibly be anymore perfect. To me, Rwake has been the most consistent and under appreciated bands to hold the stoner/sludge title. Everything that they've released has given me a genuine sense of excitement. They haven't put out a sub par release to date but with Rest, they've managed to completely blow their back catalog out the water. Atmospheric sludge is a tricky genre to persevere in. Most bands manage to become stale quickly but Rwake are masters of their craft. They know when to keep it heavy and when to go light like it's their full time profession. ($14.99)

Skeletonwitch: Forever Abomination (CD) http://www.allthatisheavy.com/info.asp?item_num=ATH-8826

Fuck. Yes. After a handful of albums developing a synthesis of old school thrash, modern black metal and dashes of rock and roll, Skeletonwitch unquestionably come into their own on Forever Abomination. The album is an electrifying consolidation of influences, gratefully nodding to the past as they keep their eyes solidly on the future. Most importantly, these songs rock! ($13.99)

Leather Nun: Kult Occult (CD) http://www.allthatisheavy.com/info.asp?item_num=ATH-8836

Leather Nun America, one of the best classic traditional Doom bands with a strong, raw rock and roll feel, is back with their new highlight 'Kult Occult'! They did it once again and delivered old-school riffing doom inspired by Black Sabbath, The Obsessed, and even Jimi Hendrix. ($12.99)

Ghost: Opus Eponymous (Picture Disc) (LP) http://www.allthatisheavy.com/info.asp?item_num=ATH-8835

Picture Disc. Ghost reminds me of being home sick from school (faking) on a rainy day while playing Ghosts 'n' Goblins and reading comics. The vibe is authentic. ($20.99)

Vibravoid: Burg Herzberg Festival 2011 (CD) http://www.allthatisheavy.com/info.asp?item_num=ATH-8833

Recorded live on July 15, 2011 at Burg Herzberg Festival in Breitenbach, Switzerland. Take a deep breath, relax and float downstream with the multicoloured sound of Vibravoid. After the sensational success of last year's "Vibravoid Live At Burg Herzberg Festival 2010" and the phenomenal highly acclaimed 'Minddrugs', this year the group took over the main stage to dominate the ceremonies! On late Friday night Vibravoid played a superb performance accompanied by a heavy psychedelic lightshow - second to none! Vibravoid played a mixed set from "Minddrugs", previous albums as well as a blistering 20 minutes version of Pink Floyd's "Set the Controls for the Heart of the Sun". Heavy and fully loaded psychedelic freak out noise will set fire to your soul! ($26.99)

Bomb the Sun: Self Titled (Color) (LP) http://www.allthatisheavy.com/info.asp?item_num=ATH-8820

Limited edition of only 200 hand numbered copies on 180gr. clear vinyl. Deluxe gatefold sleeve. If the term epic should be used to describe any music, this is the music! Out of Swansea comes these four guys and if you want to come along they can take you for a journey to the pleasure land. Bomb the Sun makes heavy trippy music for dreams or just for listening to with your eyes closed. This is nice complex soundscapes going on for ever and ever, but always varied with breaks and rhythm changes. Although it's a completely different style of music, this band reminds me of Colour Haze with the never ending ability to build upon the same riff and just progress forever. And like Colour Haze has Mani on drums, Bomb the Sun has Dave who can also do magic with the sticks. I'm overwhelmed, I'm flat on my back, this is a masterpiece. ($33.99)
