Here is your Razor Underground Recap for March 24th, 2019.
We kicked things off with brand new music from Horseburner! These guys are near and dear to my heart since they hail from my home state of West Virginia. They are one of the best and brightest stoner rock bands doing it right now, hands down. The band has recently signed to Stoner/Doom mega-label Ripple Music and will be releasing their brand new full-length The Thief later this year. Here is the first taste of that record in the form of “Hand of Gold, Man of Stone”!
For this episode, I interviewed Cameron Meyers. Cameron isn’t in a band, but he helps those who are dress right. He founded Empire of Eden Apparel, a clothing company that caters to musicians. He also helps out with Edenfest Productions, which books shows and promotes bands throughout Wisconsin and the region.
I debuted the band Stare Across on this episode of Underground. This band calls Eau Claire, WI home and has a real GRUNGEY Alice in Chains vibe to their music. The churning riffs caught my attention but the vocalist kicks in with a very unique delivery that immediately made me want to listen to the song over again. I hesitate to share a live video, but I think it’s a pretty good live version of the song, so check out “Away” below!
I’ll admit it: DayRollers is a band that absolutely threw me for a loop. By turns, Wallflowers-esque ’90’s nostalgia and then dense and HEAVY, these dudes know how to write a tune that is going to grab your attention. You may need to listen to this song multiple times, but trust me, by the end of it you’re not going to get that hook out of your head. Listen to their new single “Choices” below!
