Mount Desert Oakland, California
Mount Desert is a San Francisco Bay Area-based two-piece, with roots in psychedelic rock, post rock, blues, and metal. We
consider this band to be a true culmination of all the music by which we are inspired.
Bands we draw on include Pink Floyd, Neurosis, Cerberus Shoal, All Them Witches, Crowbar, Mono, Corrosion of Conformity, and countless others who have inspired us along the way.

The flac version of this sounds great in my truck... not a crunch, clip or boom to be heard. That, in itself, gets this major points. This is a lovely combination of early Floyd, U2 and a few San Francisco bands from the '60s with a heavy dose of Helmet tossed in. It's definitely best of breed when it comes to modern psych stuff. Even without a Hammond B3, it gets an easy A+...

Surely the best psych/stoner/prog one-man band in the world. Naturally fluid music not possible to stop to listen to... This guy is a true melody master

A neat conceptual album; as a hardcore roleplayer, I appreciate the module and can't really separate module from album; definitely one of the albums that you want to listen to in its entirety, not just dip into.

Strange, Strange Times
by The Ugly Kings
Combining crooned murder ballads with raw, angsty hard rock hooks, Melbourne's The Ugly Kings are a wrecking crew well worth watching.

For some reason, what I previewed and the real songs was somewhat different - maybe because of the cover art? But I definitely don't regret something more spacial than expected. The recent Ocean drifting in space.
