This
was a Roadburn 2015 sampler that the band was giving out to selected media and
fans at the festival this year. It starts off with a really long track over
25mins which is called On riff to bake the Horses which is a medley of the
tracks from their debut CD called How I learned to relax and love the Bong!
Marathon des Sables is a new song and has some really intense playing from all
the band. I like the cool effect on the guitar as it really builds up in
intensity, like a scream and then they break out into a more jazzy realm like
the track started off and then totally out there!. This is some of the bands
best quality recordings and they really are on fire with some great playing by
all the players and you can really hear how they have really come together
after 7 years. A.B.Ong is a track from 2012. The Bong remains the Same is
another new one and borrows a slight bit from the classic Led Zeppelin track.
They finish off with Inhale on Main Street, another track from 2012. A very
cool sampler with new material and a reworking of old stuff. I really like this
instrumental Italian band.This is a site where I post reviews of CDs, DVDs, LPs, and concerts. I have been writing music reviews on and off since 1984. I ran a heavy metal fanzine from 1984-1988 called Metal Madness and have been a staff writer for Aural Innovations for many years. I have also contributed to Chrohinga Well (RIP), Bad Acid (RIP), Lowcut (RIP), Roadburn and a number of other zines as well. I recently moved to Portugal so please request the new address and do not send any music to Denmark anymore. Tak..
