HEAVY PSYCH SOUNDS (ITALY) 269 Titles

Guitarist Eddie Glass and drummer Ruben Romano formed Nebula in 1997 after breaking away from desert rock pioneers Fu Manchu, eventually recruiting bassist Mark Abshire. The power trio specializes in feedback-drenched heavy rock, incorporating liberal doses of Black Sabbath riffery, psychedelia, and space rock. The band released a number of EPs before moving onto full-length albums like 1999's To the Center and 2001's Charged. They've mainly distinguished themselves as a very hard-working live unit Nebula creates pure guitar-driven, conscious expanding rock for the 21st century. They are a culmination of their rock forbearers such as Jimi Hendrix, MC5, The Stooges, and Mudhoney turned up a notch, taken to the next level, and blasting through space. Nebula spread their gospel through their music and what they are preaching will leave the congregation on the floor. In 2017 the band decided to reissue three of their crucial early works via Heavy Psych Sounds Records: 1998's Let it Burn, 1999's To the Center, and 2002's Dos EPs, which includes the material originally released on 1999's Sun Creature and a Nebula/Lowrider split. Followed by the re-release of Nebula's Charged and the special release of Demos & Outtakes '98-02 in early 2019, this summer and after 13 years will be seeing the band return with not only a new line-up but also their brand new full-length, a news that will definitely make every desert rock-heart beat faster.

DISASTROID	Mortal Fools	LP	HEAVY PSYCH SOUNDS	HPS 119LP
$23.50 PREORDER RELEASE DATE: 2/28/2020 LP version. Mortal Fools was born in the bleak industrial wasteland at the outskirts of San Francisco, rising out of a hazy stew of mold, crushed beer cans, and cigarette smoke. Disastroid worked hard to get a thick, sludgy sound on this album, while keeping the rough edges and noisy energy that they always strive for in their live shows. Mortal Fools is music to listen to while enjoying the slow, grinding collapse of modern society. San Francisco veterans Disastroid have been serving up sludgy, grunge-infused stoner rock for the better part of a decade now, refining a sound that weaves heavy riffs together with angular guitar lines, odd time signatures, and hazy walls of fuzz. As influenced by '90s noise rock as they are by modern psych, doom, and post-metal, Disastroid delivers thick, satisfying stoner rock stomp while also embracing layers of noise, tripped-out feedback, and some unpredictable song structures. Their original approach, captured on their 2014 record Missiles and the 2017 follow-up Screen, has made them one of the most essential bands in the Bay Area music scene. Their latest, Mortal Fools is their heaviest and most expansive-sounding album to date. Produced by Tim Green (Nation of Ulysses, The Fucking Champs), it's sonically focused on what Disastroid does best, laying singer/guitarist Enver Koneya's deep vocals and fuzzed-out riffs on top of a relentless, pummeling rhythm section. At the same time, it's loose enough that it takes some unpredictable twists and turns, conveying the band's rough edges, sense of humor, and noisy, experimental streak.

GIOBIA	Plasmatic Idol	CD	HEAVY PSYCH SOUNDS	HPS 113CD
$16.50 PREORDER RELEASE DATE: 2/28/2020 The Giöbia album Plasmatic Idol is simply impressive: a collection of different sounds and atmospheres, brings the listener to another sidereal world full of dreams and mind travels. You can clearly feel the influence of certain Pink Floyd in some passages but also pinches of Italian progressive rock, horror soundtrack sounds from '70s movies, '60s garage influences, US West Coast psychedelia, and late '60s space rock a la Hawkwind. The production is delicate and smooth, the album flows without interruptions and the music immerses your mind in a cosmic dimension. The vintage organs and synthesizers are used in the best way possible, eight tracks that capture your attention without distraction. Produced by Bazu, the guitar player and singer of the band. Mixed and mastered by Brett Orrison (Black Angels, Jack White) at Spaceflight Records in Austin, Texas. Cover artwork by Metastazis.

MONDO GENERATOR	Fuck It (Orange Vinyl)	LP	HEAVY PSYCH SOUNDS	HPS 117LTD-LP
$33.00 PREORDER RELEASE DATE: 2/28/2020 LP version. Orange vinyl. Hell guys! Mondo Generator are back! Eight years since the last record, this is a dream for all the fans of the band. A mixture of speed rock, American punk and hardcore, with the typical Nick Oliveri style. You can hear the old school roots of Black Flag and Dead Kennedys with a pinch of heavy rock and sometimes shades of stoner. You can feel the dust and the sand of the Californian desert mixed with the rotten smell of a dirty basement used as venue! The songwriting is never ordinary and keeps the listener alive for the duration of the entire album. The vocal melodies are always interesting and give the music its trademark sound. You can definitely hear the punk attitude of Queens of the Stone Age band with whom Nick played for long time. The album is recorded at Pink Duck studio owned by Josh Homme and engineered and mixed by Ian Watt. Cover art by Branca Studio.

BIG SCENIC NOWHERE	Vision Beyond Horizon (Purple Vinyl)	LP	HEAVY PSYCH SOUNDS	HPS 114LTD-LP
$33.00 PREORDER RELEASE DATE: 2/14/2020 LP version. Purple vinyl version. Big Scenic Nowhere's Vision Beyond Horizon is a collaborative effort and even greater than the sum of its parts. The basic riffs and song structures were done by Bob Balch and Gary Arce, but the contributions from Tony Reed, Lisa Alley, Ian Graham, Mario Lalli, Nick Oliveri, Bill Stinson, Per Wiberg, and Alain Johannes make this record what it is. There was never a discussion of what kind of music they wanted to make. This album is a unique gem, manufactured by multiple artists, including different atmospheres: from melodic stoner mellowness, to faster tempos, to classic heavy sounds, the songwriting is never customary. One could say Fu Manchu's killer riffing meets the desert psychedelia of Yawning Man. For sure that is something that's never been tried before! Bob Balch and Gary Arce together give life to an amazing new adventure which sounds fresh and dynamic. The vocal parts are always choral and interesting. There's a variety in the songs which always keeps the listener focused and intrigued about what's next. This is a special record and deserves full attention; over time one will hear different elements within it. Dig in and get lost; let your journey begin.

BLACK RAINBOWS	Pandaemonium (Green Fluo)	LP	HEAVY PSYCH SOUNDS	HPS 073D-LP
$28.50 PREORDER RELEASE DATE: 1/31/2020 LP version. Limited edition green fluo vinyl. Black Rainbows are back two years from their last album, Stellar Prophecy (HPS 037CD/LP/LTD-LP, 2016) with a magnificent new full-length comprised of nine tracks for about 45 minutes of music. Pandaemonium has this mix of new wave of stoner-occult riffing a la Black Sabbath, but in a heavier way. Some of the songs remind of Fu Manchu but sound heavier than ever, and then you have one long doom-sludge-stoner suite ("Grindstone"), and a couple of lysergic, dreamy, heavy psych songs that will blow your mind. The album sounds killer and was recorded at Forward Studios, one of Italy's finest recording spaces. Produced by Gabriele Fiori and engineered by Fabio Sforza, with a special focus on the drums, handled for the first time in Black Rainbows by Filippo Ragazzoni. Bass riffing is solid and has a mellow sound, and the wall of fuzz from Fiori's guitars will drive you nuts. Artwork will be, for the third time for the band, from the visionary SoloMacello. This is the sixth studio album for the band, and by far the best one yet. It's the most solid and complete album they have ever recorded.

RYTE	Ryte (Clear Water Green Vinyl)	LP	HEAVY PSYCH SOUNDS	HPS 116LTD-LP
$33.00 PREORDER RELEASE DATE: 1/24/2020 LP version. Clear water green vinyl. Ryte's debut album is basically the result of an intense one-and-a-half-year writing process (late 2016-early 2018), which was definitely fueled by a very creative and communal spirit within the band. The album consists of four long tracks which were constructed and developed carefully over time. The flow came totally natural as every member participated equally and contributed their very own personal abilities. The album definitely pushes the boundaries of psych rock as it is influenced by countless styles of music, including doom, prog rock, jazz, and even world music. The sound is dominated by down-tuned, sometimes doomy, sometimes epic twin guitars, dynamic and jazzy drums, distorted, playful basslines and spacey Theremin landscapes. Even though vocals are rare they do exist and are done either by Lukas or Arik, while the lyrics refer to freaked-out sci-fi stuff. Production-wise Hannes himself took over the project and recorded the album at his own rehearsal space. Michael Piller did the mixing and none other than the underground producer-legend Tim Green mastered the album at Louder Studios in California. In mid-2016, Hannes, Arik, and Shardik decided to start a new project together. At that time, Arik and Shardik had already been playing several years together in Pastor and were looking for someone to jam with. By chance they met drummer Hannes at a Saviours show in Vienna. Shortly afterwards Ryte was founded. The only thing that was still missing was a bass-player. The band finally found the last missing part in late 2016 and was then a complete four-piece with Lukas on bass. They spent at least one intense year of continuous rehearsals and songwriting sessions in order to get a live-set and of course, an album together. Since day one, the band's goal was to play sophisticated, mostly instrumental heavy psych with little hints of classic prog, space rock, doom, and plenty of other stuff. Speaking of influences, the band is not limited by any means as long as it sounds fresh and interesting and does the band's initial idea of adventurous heaviness justice. For fans of: Danava, Hawkwind, Hällas, Horisont, Captain Beyond, Earthless, Joy, Iron Claw, Astra, King Crimson, Harsh Toke, Yes, Pentagram, Psicomagia.

A hammered four-stroke beat like a twin cylinder engine running on idle, a roaring guitar riff revving up the rpms of the iron-built motorcycle-inspired band, then the fresh and insisting breeze of a Farfisa organ whispering "let's ride", and a heavy bass greasing up the reliable crank and rods of that authentic rock'n'roll machine, and there it goes ladies and gents, the mighty Lords Of Altamont combo! Riding hard on backyard-built, loud pipes, and rigid frame indestructible raw choppers, the band left their garage enlivened by the year of 1969, right at the crossroads of the Summer of Love and the birth of punk rock. Fueled up by the MC5, the Stooges, and the Chambers Brothers, to name a few, the pack follows Jake "The Preacher" Cavaliere (vocals, organ) on his uncompromising rock'n'roll journey ; Dani Sindaco (guitar), Rob Zimmermann (bass), and Steven Van Der Werff (drums) along with their front man are now spreading out The Wild Sounds Of Lords Of Altamont, their latest record, around the planet! Through fads and fashions, either on wax or on stage, the Lords can take you back to this era of freedom and rebellion with their hi-octane tunes. The gang has been already rocking the world for 17 years with spectacular performances, firmly run-in by five solid stainless records and they're now fine-tuned with this new release of ten powerful late-sixties tracks which manage to sound fiendishly contemporary. Our era needs the Heavy Psych Sounds label and the Lords real bad: nine new original stunning songs plus an arrogant and totally mind-blowing Howlin' Wolf cover ("Evil Is Going On"). Let's welcome the LA combo back and hit the road to rock'n'roll with the "Savage 4". Carefully produced at Kitten Robot Studios in LA by punk rock legend Paul Roessler (Screamers); analog-mastered by Dave Schultz at D2 Mastering Lab.
