MyFriends: Saturnalia Temple, Count Raven, Magnus Pelander, First Love, Last Rites, Underacheiver
If this is the future of music, then stick a fork in me. I'm content with being old and boring and listening to boring old music made by other old boring people.
Saturnalia Temple
SOUNDS LIKE: There's so many killer reissues coming out nowadays it's almost not worth bothering with modern music. Yet, still I do because there's bands like this embracing old styles (in this case, kvlt doom) in fresh new ways.HIGHLIGHT: Dreaming out of death, Babylon gnosis, Mount Meru is tall

Count Raven
SOUNDS LIKE: Hell yeah, sounds like "No rest for the wicked"-era Ozzy without the Zakk Wylde flash, but all of the heaviness. The music of my youth remains the music I love best.HIGHLIGHT: Poltergeist

Magnus Pelander
SOUNDS LIKE: You want old man rock'n'roll, you won't get much better than Witchcraft frontman Magnus Pelander playing solo. Stripped of his backing band's bombast, what's left is nothing but killer occult-minded folk.HIGHLIGHTS: Every track is great; it's amazing this dude doesn't have a label yet

First Love, Last Rites
SOUNDS LIKE: I'm not only into classic rock and metal, I can get down with some classic indie stylings too, 1990s style.HIGHLIGHTS: Slow wind

Underacheiver
SOUNDS LIKE: Ex-members from Yvonne, Meanwhile and At the Gates doing heavy noiserock? You know I'm all about it. Big ups to Patrik Wirén for the tip.HIGHLIGHTS: Solid the whole way through
