With "Beneath The Desert Floor", Ripple Musicstarts its latest series dedicated to the lost treasures from the early days of stoner rock - and this one starts with a bang:
The Awesome Machine
What is delivered here is a fuzz-drenched, bone-dry stoner monolith with desert-blues - first-class production and yet exactly how stoner sounded in the 2000s: raw, unpolished, honest and straight in the face.
These 4 guys from Gothenburg should actually be mentioned in every breath with bands like Kyuss, Lowrider, Dozer, Clutch and Fu Manchu and yet they still have these "secret tip" vibes.
I hope this new Ripple series will have the same success as the absolutely great Turned to Stone Split Series, because this is the beginning of a more than exciting journey!
