@emceeQ 3 absolutely Stella selections there.i know and love Jessica Pratt and know mono, but wasn't familiar wit Weakened Friends. 90s influence x Portland = what's not to love!
-
@emceeQ 3 of my favourites from last year:
Tess Parks and Anton Newcombe. A match made in heaven:
Emma Ruth Rundle. I only discovered her back catalogue and work wit Mariages midway through last year, but her output has been a favourite since. Chelsea Wolfe is the media darling (I love her too). But Emma is the real deal:
Dirty Friends came out of nowhere for me. Really enjoyed this album, and what a Stella 'supergroup' Corin Tucker, Kurt Bloch, Peter Buck, Scoot McCaughey, and William Rieflin…seriously, so many unsung Seattle and indie legends:

@Stuart.T Long time fan of Emma Ruth Rundle. Saw Marriages when they toured with Deafheaven in 2013 was blown away. On Dark Horses was definitely a standout from last year. She is touring with Thou in a few months and the show near by me is going to be a collaborative set. Can't wait to see it…
Gonna dig deeper into the Tess Parks & Anton Newcombe and Filthy Friends records later tonight. Both are right up my alley...

don’t understand The Rush connection at all.
If you don't see a connection Rush here, I don't know what to tell ya. When I first heard this, my first thought was how much it reminded me of the whimsy of Rush.
. When I first saw this post,for some reason,the video wasn’t there. This sounds,totally,like Rush. -
If you're looking for something laid back.
Also:
-
You owe it to yourself to listen to this. Trust me, it is awesome.

Not only is the band fantastic. Paul Kearns is one of the best vocalists I've heard. He actually sings in an epic doom metal band and doesn't sound like Ozzy or Danzig.
-
@filthy if you don't know this band already, I think you might love them
-
@Stuart.T no I have never heard them before… They are really great musicians. But it's weird I don't care for the vocals at all. Maybe their studio stuff sounds different?
-
I am sure you probably heard Solstice before because they are British. But I really like their vocals a lot.
-
@Filthy it was the vocals that make them stand out for me, but I can absolutely see they are an acquired taste.
Solstice are a British doom institution! first lp released in 1994 and they are still going. Do you know the bands Warning and 4o Watt sun? they have a similar feel. Patrick Walker (the vocalist in both bands) has a great voice, but you might find it a bit too nasally

The only Warning I have heard is an anarcho-punk thrash band who changed their name to Final Warning not heard 40w either.
-
@Stuart.T I will definitely give all the bands a listen tonight and even look up Dead Quiet again for some studio tracks.
