Title: Heavy/Mellow 4 SERaider and Madda
Post by: Anodizer on September 23, 2009, 11:28:30 AM: Was talking to a few of you guys last night regarding Sabbath..
Here's some of the stuff I was talking about....
This is that band (Sleep) I was talking about.. Whole bunch of Sabbath influence here..

Here's another favorite of mine in this genre...Acid King.....They have a chick singer but sounds like a stoned out pissed off version of Joan Jett..

Here's my all time favorite....Kyuss....Their Guitarist (Josh Homme) went on to start Queens of the Stone Age(you may have heard of them)..

A lot of this stuff hails from the desert regions of California.. That desert influence is definitely evident..
There are so many names for this genre and I think one of you guys came up with a new one:Heavy Mellow....lol
The stuff is a lot more relaxed than other forms of heavier music.. It's never up in your face screaming and begging to be turned down.. I like to play it loud and with a lot of bass as that's how it's meant to be played.. I get a distinct early 70's vibe when I listen to this stuff.. I like call it Bottom Heavy Psychedelic Rock.. Enjoy..

If you're interested in more, PM me.... I have all this stuff on my FTP site..

That's when I listen to Morbid Angel, Obituary, etc.

Post by: maddafinga on September 23, 2009, 09:32:46 PM: Ok, just got done listening to all of it and I liked every last bit. I'd heard of acid king before, but not listened to any of their stuff. I'll send a pm about getting dome downloads of this stuff from you man. It'll go great at work on my Zune.

Heavy mellow has always been how I sort of thought of Sabbath in my head, though I've never said it out loud I don't think. Never had to describe the genre before. I like it though. Thanks for the links man!
