Maquina Verde Antiguo Oscuro

Maquina Verde is an independent stoner rock band, which I have the pleasure to be working with. They have released two albums so far and perform very often at my hometown. They have performed in some important rock concerts in Chile and have also participated of independent recordings of new bands on the scene of stoner and psychodelic rock at national degree.

This particular video "Antiguo oscuro" (video number three) was edited and recorded on studio for a livestream presentation on Sonido Naciona, an online radio) The video was made by my hand and my premature skills with adobe premier, at that particular time. I am very happy to introduce you to this band. I am also adding other personal live recordings, which sound amazing. Feel free to look them up on youtube, because there are a lot of materials. I personally advice you to listen to Stoned Paranoia, Luna, Cae el Cielo, trip to heaven, and nuevas rutas. CHeers!!!!!

Blue Cheer - Vincebus eruptum [1968]

Well, I will keep uploading some albums to do with that top 20 list of the best stoner album ever, and this band is interesting though it has that sound tipical of the 70s. It is a very short album and I leave you Decibel's opinion of the work performed by Blue Cheer in this disc. Take care people!

8 Blue Cheer, Vincebus Eruptum | Philips (1968)
"Ah, the fabled psychedelic sounds of San Francisco. So soothing and filled with visions of hope and universal brotherhood. Ha! Get over it, Phishhead. The sound of San Fran circa 1968 was perfectly encapsulated by Blue Cheer’s feral power-trio attack of fuzz, feedback and the unrelenting wail of a sky high Marshall stack. By 1968, Frisco had devolved into McMansonland—speed-addled, brain-dead runaways living under bridges and eating neighborhood pets. Vincebus is the triumphant sound of frustration at being handed a lie and told to suck on it. Plus, Blue Cheer’s sound is just so impossibly cool. For 40 years, people have been trying to replicate their bastard approximation of Hendrix and Cream and often come up short. God bless their tortured, beautiful souls. —Scott Seward"

Yawning Man - Rock Formations [2005]

Now, this a special post. In fact, it is so special that even saying this a one thousand star post, would not make it special enough. Yawning man is a cult and legendary band you need to listen. Furthermore, if you read up on the band, you may even get to understand where stoner comes from. Now, I leave you a comment to read, beause this guy knows to describe better than me what the fuck Yawning man is about. Just think about that Yawning man's music heavily influenced the likes of John Garcia, Josh Homme, and Brant Bjork to name only a few; who would later form the legendary stoner rock band Kyuss.

"Yawning Man was the sickest desert band of all time. You’d just be up there in the desert, everybody’d just be hanging, partying. And they’d show up in their van and just, mellow, drag out their shit and set up right about the time the sun was goin’ down, set up the generators, sometimes they’d just go up there and drink beers and barbecue. Sometimes it would be a scene; sometimes it would be very intimate. It was very casual and loose and everybody would like, while they’re playing, everyone would just lounge around. They were kinda like a house band. It wasn’t militant like Black Flag. It was very drugged, very stone-y, it was very mystical. Everyone’s just tripping, and they’re just playing away, for hours. Oh, they’re the GREATEST band I’ve ever seen.- Brant Bjork (2002)"

Poseidotica - La Distancia [2008]

Well, this a particular post, because again I am posting something different to stoner, as I did in the past, posting Darediablo's Twenty Paces album. Poseidotica is an Argentinian instrumental psychodelic rock-progresive band. Websites' descriptions about their music say something like: "Starting with the goal of creating an environmental and heavy rock, each integral ingredient contributes its staff in order to achieve a range of climates and dark and dense atmospheres that allow a subtle mental journey, contrasting moments of total relaxation with excerpts of inevitable fury".

Having read such description I think you may understand why I'm posting this album. This is the kind of stoned hypnotic music that sucks your brain dry; your mind starts to wander and landscapes of different kinds begin to flow with the melody...music becames a mind trip. Now think about how often you listen to an argetinian band...I don't know many, but there are plenty of USA stoner bands...just get it! Poseidotica rocks!
