RidingEasy Records news: June 'Potcast' w/ guest Brant Bjork (Kyuss) + new tracks & tour dates



Southern California label RidingEasy Records share a special edition of their monthly Potcast series today featuring special guest Brant Bjork (Kyuss, Fu Manchu, Vista Chino). RidingEasy describes it:

"This month's POTCAST is so smoked out it should be illegal, 2.5 hours of mind melting good ol' rock n roll. We also get blessed with an hour long DJ set from Brant Bjork and get to talk about his favorite kind of weed and drum breaks as well as what he's been up to as of late." Hear and share HERE. (Full playlist at the link.)


There's also newly announced U.S. tour dates for Swedish doom behemoths Monolord (as well as new 2-song 10") and Bay Area heavy psych/Krautrock quartet Mondo Drag. See all current tour dates below. 

And, here's the latest in new song premieres and upcoming releases:

1) Slow Season just premiered the second track from their barnstorming (literally... it was recorded on a farm in their central California home) third album via Metal InjectionThe banging new track "Damascus" is available to hear and share HERE. (Direct Soundcloud.) Consequence of Sound previously shared the lead track from the forthcoming Westing (out July 15th) and you'll know why everyone's going crazy over "Y'Wanna"

2) Salem's Pot also recently shared a new tune from their forthcoming album -- a hazy fever dream of dark, thrilling excess -- via CvltNation. It's equal parts of The CrampsPsychedelic JunglePentagram's RelentlessRoky Erickson's The Evil One and The Stooges Raw Power, as much heirs to Deep Purple as Dead Moon... metal, garage punk, acid rock and a belladonna trip gone wrong. Soak up the album opener, "Tranny Takes a Trip" ( CvltNation) (Soundcloud).

3) Svvamp are exciting yet unassuming new signees from Sweden capturing the true primordial beauty of homespun rock, folk and blues that conjures hints of Cream, Eric Bell-era Thin LizzyCCR and Crazy Horse. Hear & share lead single "Burning Down" (YouTube). 

And, coming this summer and beyond, more mind-blowing new releases from The WellHoly Serpentand more! Please get in touch for more information, interviews, guest list requests and anything else you might need.
