Cave In | "Until Your Heart Stops" Hydra Head

The 1998 metal classic that is just as relevant today as it was 12 years ago.

Converge's Jacob Bannon did the entire layout for the double LP on Hydra Head in 1998.  Bannon also lends his vocal talents on the first track, "Moral Eclipse".  This album changed the entire Metal/Hardcore genre by stepping up with a truly innovative sound that you hear today in bands like Mastodon, Baroness, and Every Time I Die.  With Elements of Slayer, Pantera, Metallica and Maiden... Cave In straight up changed the game and this record was hands down the catalyst.

"I'm Gonna Make You Mine"

Crusher Records

2007

 “I’m Gonna Make You Mine” is a beautiful, mid-tempo, melodic and organ-driven psych rocker that has both acoustic guitar and nice fuzz sounds. It’s a really great number that sort of reminds me of 13th Floor Elevators. “Information Overload” is a straight-forward, tight and excellent garage blast with plenty of energy. The tinkling piano adds even more punch to the song, and this rather heavy track rocks like there’s no tomorrow.

Jim Jarmusch lays plans for a STOOGES film...

Via The Perlich Post 

No, acclaimed auteur Jim Jarmusch isn't planning on making a Three Stooges movie – however entertaining it may be seeing Tom Waits, John Lurie and Bill Murray doing some slapstick comedy together in the roles of Shemp, Larry and Moe – it's a documentary about the confrontational Ann Arbor rock 'n' roll band The Stooges. In addition to some rare vintage performance clips, Jarmusch has apparently already filmed eight hours with Iggy Pop talking about all things Stooges going back to his childhood in a Ypsilanti trailer park as the filmmaker noted during an interview at the All Tomorrow's Parties festival in Monticello, New York which he co-curated. 

New Drugs Dragons LP finally dropped today and HOLY SHIT!!!

"S/T"

Dusty Medical

2010

Well...It's official!  This is THE grimiest, filthiest(in every sense of the word), purest rock and roll album I've heard in years. Sleazy licks and chords wail out of Tony Sagger's guitar amidst awesome tongue and cheek lyrics bellowing from vocalist, Puke Drugs. It hits you in the fucking throat right from the get go with the track "Carnivore". Elements of Psychedelia start to bleed in as the record moves on creating a unique sonic vibe that a lot of bands lack.  The only way to describe this sound is...Anthemic!  With song titles like... "(I'm In A) Braingrave", "Chuds In Love". and "Drug Vultures" It's a guaranteed party!

Pet Genius | "S/T" LP

Pet Genius

"S/T"

Hydra Head

2007

Since his time in Cave In, Stephen Brodsky has had an active following (and release calender). Their 2003 album Antenna landed a major label (which didn't last long) release and presented a poppier, relatively softer sound that wasn't generally accepted by the long-time fans. This direction was also displayed in his solo project preceding the label jump, and in newer projects New Idea Society and last years short lived Octave Museum. The sunshiny day approach worked well but left many people wondering where the big riff went. Well, Brodsky is back in business with Cave In counterpart Hydra Head, and he's brought some old friends with him. Pet Genius is rounded out by another part Octave Museum on bass and the Doomriders drum demon, officially Johnny Coolbreeze and J.R. John Junior, respectively. They released the unreleased Elvis Demo not too long ago and toured lightly, which left many in quiet anticipation of this self-titled full length. The album opener "Doomsday" shares the dirty reverb and stripped-down song structure that the EP introduced, as Brodsky howls his oh's the whole way through until they stumble into the more peaceful "The Visiting Dynamiter." This pattern repeats itself once more past the would-be hit single "Walls of Etiquette" and "Man of the Mountain," where the simple riffs and steady beats leave me puzzling what Black Sabbath would have sounded like at Woodstock. A curious double take sitting at the center of the album finds Brodsky in release of some salty noodling, and the power half-hour is over after two more bass lines you couldn't chew on enough to soften up.


Pet Genius is Boston's answer to a savvier White Stripes, the kind of noise rock a Beach Boys raised eight-year-old Buzz Osborne dreamt of. It's more of a nuisance pet than a genius, something that keeps outsmarting you despite its lower trophic level, something you can't see hiding under the glass coffee table and behind those fauxhogany rabbit statues you keep by the front door. Not quite as catchy as "Get Out" and not nearly as heavy as "Moral Eclipse," we are looking at a new era that is still unmistakably Brodsky, something that lacks in complexity and originality but redeems itself in execution. Your neighbors won't be confident enough to yell at you for playing it too loudly. -- LG

Why Not Kick off Cave In Week with a SUPER HEAVY Hydra Head Classic... 

Zozobra

"Bird of Prey"

Hydra Head

2008

 This is Caleb Scofield's (Cave In, Old Man Gloom) second release under the moniker, Zozobra, entitled "Bird of Prey".  For the sophomore effort Caleb enlisted Isis' Aaron Turner for the recording and mixing,  not only that...Aaron Turner also plays drums on "Bird Of Prey." Zozobra uses doom, psychedelic, sludge and traditional metal to construct songs that are noisy and groovy. The low end rumbles as downtuned guitars deliver ominous riffs.
 Zozobra changes things up, with some songs being reasonably straightforward and others much more progressive and experimental. Layers of instruments build into a cacophony that's crushing without being overwhelming.
 Scofield's vocals range from vicious screams and violent yells reminiscent actually of Stephen Brodsky's vocal style on Cave In's 1998 Classic -- "Until Your Heart Stops", and also one the of the raddest things about this record is that Stephen Brodsky (Cave In, Kid Kilowatt, Stephen Brodsky) lends his voice for some of the actual singing parts that are much darker than what you'd here on most of his recent material.  It's the passion and emotion in Caleb's very powerful voice though that makes "Bird Of Prey" the Hydra head classic it is!  It is incredibly well produced, constructed, and when the 30 something minute record comes to a close, just like the end of Floor's "S/T" lp... you wish there were a couple more songs.
