Review:
A
sweat lodge dream heaven…
Sometimes
a band comes along playing music that makes you want to jump up, run
to your car, and drive for the desert, drinking beers, blasting the
tunes way out loud while wearing nothing but beatdown Vans, a
checkered lumber jacket shirt and torn-off 501’s… This is the
sound of Sweat Lodge, a smell of diesel, burned rubber and dust in
the nostrils.
With
Talismana they arrive at the dusty plains with a sound that mixes
equal amounts of Thin Lizzy-esque twin-guitar works (although I
believe there is just one axe-swinger aboard the vehicle), 70’s
swagger ‘n groove, driving drums and it all stirred up with good
amount of Sabbath infused doomery. Sweat Lodge is bound to take loads
of prisoners with this there first full length released by Ripple
Music and available on various vinyl editions early August.
To
me this is the perfect mix of classic rock and stoner with just that
sense of doom and psych that makes it roll all the way to hell in a
bloody good way! This will be a hard contender for lots of folks Top
10 or even Top 5 lists this year if there is any justice. This will
for sure end up ranking high with me when the head count is summed up
at the end of 2015.
All
in all a very accomplished work for such a relatively young band and
yet again, great work by Ripple Music .Once more who are bringing a
class-A act to all the stoner rocking hungry fans out there…
