Supergiant
Antares
This album packs a real punch, the best of rock obviously the major influence. It has 14 tracks, 3 of them from their self-titled EP. Not only is the music great, but the album art lives up to the traditional style and epic nature of the band, evident on their website, leaflets, posters, badges, stickers, EP and any other promotional material. This is the beginning of something big, I can just feel it now. "Now, Id be lying if I said I didnt hear a touch of the Kyussian here, but Id be hard-pressed to think of a band that embodies what I think of as "stoner rock" who avoids this favorite of all name drops. And SuperGiant does indeed embody that, but there is a vibe here that makes this unique, and (more importantly) rewards repeated listens.
