I’ve been listening to more and more rock these days because there’s a slew of creative stuff coming out on smaller labels. Take Steel Mammoth a band who describes themselves with the following passage : “A lonesome engine cries, howling in the cruel crüel night! Nuclear nightmare, atomic style! Shadow barbarians with lazer eyes, radiation village, the black fire burning bright! Steel Mammoth brings you the sound of the post nuclear holocaust future with no hope!”
Wow, WTF are they smoking?! Aquarius records is puzzled as well : “It’s pure WTF? weirdness in the guise of a metal band.” Their music akin to driving southern rock with a crunchy guitar tone with this mock metal image & 100% unfitting lyrics. I was pretty sure this stoner trio was from the Mojave Desert in the US of A, but guess what they’re from Finland!!. Catchy hooks, desert rock grooves, southern rock vocals all kinds of bizarre proggy parts. I guess when your frontman is called Garfield Steel you are permitted to do anything in the world these days. Highly recommended.
