KINGS DESTROY

"AND THE REST WILL SURELY PERISH"

2010

MAPLE FORUM

For those of you that DON'T know about Kings Destroy... WELCOME!! One of not only the BEST Heavy/Stoner/Doom bands to come out of New York City, but also, one of the BEST BANDS PERIOD to come out of Gotham!! These Brooklyn-based dudes feature both Carl and Chris of the legendary, 'KILLING TIME'. Not to mention ex-members of 'Uppercut' and 'Electric Frankenstein'!

Supergroup? I would have to say, "Yes, indeed!" Kings Destroy pull elements of some of Doom and Stoner rock greats such as... The Melvins, YOB, and many UK favorites such as Electric Wizard and Sabbath all stewed together with BRUTAL chugging hardcore parts that are reminiscent of Crowbar and Madball that all blends perfectly! This band is an absolute JEWEL!! The vocals, to me at times, remind me of a WAY LESS CONSTIPATED John Garcia. Which is extremely refreshing. DO NOT MISS THIS BAND!!!

MILWAUKEE ... YOU'RE IN FOR A TREAT!!

Days of the Doomed III and THE GATES OF SLUMBER slip it in...

DAYS OF THE DOOMED FEST III & THE BLOODY GLOVE PROUDLY PRESENT...

THE GATES OF SLUMBER

Rise Above

If The Gates of Slumber aren't the biggest heavy metal band in the Indianapolis area, then they're at least the most recognized doom metal group in the area. Formed in 1998, the group has gathered acclaim in the underground for its particularly theatrical musical style and strong riffs. But for the group's fifth full-length studio album, a number of changes have occurred. For starters, this is the first album to feature former Sourvein drummer "Cool" Clyde Paradis alongside longtime bassist Jason McCash and founding guitarist/vocalist Karl Simon.
While most of the band's career has been spent mixing their dirge-like sound with traditional and power metal themes in a way similar to classic Candlemass, this is easily their most stripped down album to date. Nothing on here is really simplified or made more accessible by previous standards, but you could say that the album has a rather grounded feel. The riffs are downtrodden, the vocals are mournful, and the pacing is arguably slower than it's ever been. -suite101

Days of the Doomed Fest III Countdown | EARTHEN GRAVE

The Countdown to Days of the Doomed III is upon us!!

The Bloody Glove is proud to present today's featured artist... 

Earthen Grave
"Self-Titled"
2012
Ripple Music

Doom and thrash metal could not be further apart in the spectrum of metal.  Chicago's Earthen Grave fuses every element of each sub-genre and basically makes it their own. The 6 piece includes renowned violinist, Rachel Barton Pine, which adds an insane dynamic to the style this band has come to establish! I also must include some of the other amazing musicians that are in this band.  RON HOLZNER(ex-TROUBLE) on BASS. Not to mention... CHRIS WOZNIAK (LAIR OF THE MINOTAUR and BLOOD OF MARTYRS Fame) drumming!!  Mark Weiner's vocals are very reminiscent of Chris Cornell, which is NOT a bad thing! Love every second of this band!  This is a super group of sorts in my opinion!  Can't wait for all ears to BLEED come June 22nd for DAYS OF THE DOOMED FEST III @ The Blue Pig!!

Days of the Doomed & The Bloody Glove Present, KING GIANT

Days of the Doomed and The Bloody Glove continue our countdown with none other than Virginia's own...

KING GIANT

"Dismal Hollow"

2012

Plastic Head/Red Distro

Virginia's KING GIANT has been destroying everything in their path since their inception.  These Appalachian rockers are whiskey-fueled and ready to blow your face off.  When I put this record on, I immediately feel the need to get on a Harley and ride off into the night! 

Check out what others have had to say about these cats...

  Simmered in a cauldron of Appalachian doom and sordid, straight-faced Americana, King Giant appeal to deep intestinal intuitions. Dismal Hollow is an effortless listen, a front-to-back rager and a swig of searing, satisfying songwriting. Meticulous musicianship is married to perfectly coarse, whiskey scarred vocals that slake a desperate, heretofore unknown thirst.

  King Giant traverse a well worn musical landscape, littered with bands that have sewn Southern sensibilities onto Sabbath's legacy. This isn't my usual fare, but I find Dismal Hollow colossally addictive. Solid riffs stomp, romp and swing with snappy melodies and hard-bitten blues. Wicked, writhing solos inject exuberant accents into the otherwise somber proceedings. Melancholic leads and flourishes add an enticing sheen to compositional lulls. All of King Giant's substantial creative forces are focused on songcraft; the results are utterly captivating.

  A great deal of Dismal Hollow's allure is owed to Dave Hammerly's vocals. Technically, this is clean singing; his voice is actually anything but. These brash, filthy bellows recall Glenn Danzig's style and display a distinct charisma. Each track tells a particular story, conveyed with bleak solemnity and tinged with ravenous rage. Dismal Hollow tells tales of bootlegging, abject alcoholism and spousal abuse with murderous retribution. This is real life.

Everything about Dismal Hollow resonates in my mind and memory. I've been frequently compelled to crank this on the stereo and sing along. Whatever your musical predilections and depravities might be, King Giant are worth a look. “Demon whiskey speaks for me.” -atanamar

Maryland Monsters, CHOWDER, slips it in

Days of the Doomed III and The Bloody Glove

Present...

CHOWDER

"Passion Rift"

2012

Bland Hand/I,Voidhanger

Another great band to come out of the Maryland/DC area! 

Songs such as “The Innsmouth Look” and “Head Full of Rats,” with their forward-rushing, unrelenting progressive metal, sit next to atmospheric pieces such as “Mazuku” and “Mysterioid,” in a mix part hardcore, part Lovecraft, and part autobiography. And then there is the epic title cut “Passion Rift,” as big in its scope as “Hemispheres,” a journey through a landscape at times peaceful, tense, melancholic, aggressive, and nightmarish. This is music that communicates something important, and it does so without lyrics or vocals.

Born in hardcore, bred on metal, and nourished by prog, Chowder’s all-instrumental music allows Josh’s precision arrangements and heavy guitar playing, Chad’s technical yet propulsive drumming, and Doug’s deep bass anchoring to rattle walls and turn heads. Fans of The Obsessed, Unorthodox, Rush, Godflesh, Bad Brains, and Fugazi, take notice.

Maryland's finest... Beelzefuzz DOTD3

DAYS OF THE DOOMED III 

AND THE BLOODY GLOVE

PRESENT...

BEELZEFUZZ

  Beelzefuzz is full of colors they're very hard to classify and that's quite fun in their case. This 5 tracks demo is very good and shows great promise for this band. Like their name indicates, it's fuzzy but it's also quite melodic. The sound is rich and I was surprised to learn that they were only 3 dudes. The vocalist/guitarist/leader Dana Ortt is a genuine talent and he's the true driving force. The whole demo completely blew me away with songs like ''Lotus Jam'' or ''Hardluck Melody''. While it's doom, I can't really feel the omnipresent imprint of Black Sabbath in their sound. There's a decent NWOBHM influence especially in the vocals and some of the more melodic riffs, but the main thing I sensed in Beelzefuzz is the overt psychedelic and hard rock influences. These guys are definitely big fans of Led Zep, T-Rex, Cream or Steppenwolf but they mixed this love for the golden era of rock with Judas Priest and doom metal. The demo while not quite heavy or even not totally metal totally pays off with its slow groovy numbers like the opening track ''Peace Mind'', it's sexy, comforting and alluring. I do feel like in an hippie harem full of scantily eunuchs on drugs, probably mushrooms or acid. There's a fountain full of Champagne or Mountain Dew in the middle of the huge tent, I won't try it personally but these guys probably did.

  You can feeeeeeel the love in their music, it's not dark at all. The riffs are often joyous, it's like if their whole world ignored that grunge and self-hatred was once something popular. Yeah, even Dave Grohl realized that but his music is inane, at least he teamed up with John Paul Jones to create groovy stuff in Them Crooked Vultures! Talking of grunge I can't say they ignored the 90s phenomenon completely. Dana's voice can be compared to Staley, Cornell or Vedder a bit but on super Silver Sour Diesel Haze or whatever drug that makes him happy. I usually dislike happy music but this is a totally great ''I'm on the patio with a cold beer during a sunny summer day'' kind of band and I can appreciate that. Their retro rock formula works and they don't need dildos and bullplugs to make it worthwhile.
