If you like faster Sabbath-rock that hails from the realm of Acid King and Sleep, then Dark Earth is something you'd dig. The demo is on The Book of Faces. Check out the link below.
The first and self-titled track reminded me of Orange Goblin. Right on. 'Evil King' is a fast and driving slap-in-the-face of a track - kinda thrashy, even. And, to close a sweet demo, '42012' blasts off into the outer rims of the Riff Galaxy, leaving me to soar into head space.
In true northern Cali fashion, they navigate the Riff well. I look forward to future realeases from the band.
If you're in the area, check 'em out live at Johnny V's Bar in San Jose on Tuesday, April 24th.

Don't be an unaware square. Listen to Dark Earth.
