Stoner Rock

Acid King

Acid King is a stoner doom band that was formed 1993 in San Francisco, California, USA. Acid King's signature is distortion, tight guitar-bass riff attacks and a Marshall-stacked, bloated low rear end. Ampeg bass amps and Osbourne's Ludwig drum kit supplemented the heaviness accordingly. Heavy but spacey. Lori's searing guitar leads contrasted nicely with her nefarious vocal stylings. People appreciated something different and distinctive, enthusiastically supporting Acid King's opening slots for the likes of The Obsessed, Sleep and Hawkwind.

WHOREMOAN

Whoremoan want to hurt you, in the ear. With huge riffs influenced by the likes of Kyuss, Fu Manchu and Monster Magnet, with a grounding in punk, metal and alternative rock the non-stop guitar/bass fuzz onslaught creates a sound loud and dirty enough to shake your teeth loose. Grinding dual guitars clamp you down whilst powerful bass & drums pound a groove in your face that instantly gets attention.

Jeavestone

Prog'n Roll! That's the definition that the guys in Jeavestone give for their music. And indeed, it would not make 'em justice to cram this highly imaginative blend of musical styles into a more conventional and restricted category. By combining the unpredictable with the unlikely, Jeavestone have created a richly idiosyncratic alchemy of energy and beauty, which can be best witnessed on their debut album Mind the Soup, a record that is bound to take every listener pleasantly by surprise. This bunch is not afraid to experiment and juxtapose.

Zeke

1) ZEKE established a nasty disposition while cutting teeth on their own brash hardcore punk. ZEKE formed in 1993 with an original lineup of Blind Marky Felchtone, Donny Paycheck, Mark Pierce, and Dizzy Lee Roth. The band’s first release was 1993’s 'West Seattle Acid Party' single on Wrecking Ball Records, followed by the 'Holley 750' single on IFA Records. ZEKE then set out to bring their energetic recordings to the stage and established a more than formidable reputation as "the live band to beat" via concentrated regional touring.

The Graviators

The Graviators are :
Niklas Sjöberg: Vocals
Martin Fairbanks: Guitar
Johan Holm: Bass
Henrik Bergman: Drums The Graviators formed in the woods outside Karlshamn, Sweden, with a vision to write and record music inspired by the sounds of the great rock n roll groups of the 70's. Seeing as rock n roll is dead today as we know it, the band hope to provide a spark in the dark. The Graviators blend of vintage rock with more modern stoner caught the ear of swedish label Transubstans who signed the band in early 2009.

Naam

One of the newest signings to Tee Pee, Naam is a three-piece band from Brooklyn, New York, United States whose blissed-out jam-heavy pyschedella is spotlighted on the 11 minute "Kingdom". Naam's characteristic brand of psychedelic droning stonermass on the Kingdom EP and the self titled full length (2009) will surely please fans of Dead Meadow, Grails and Sleep. Off of their MySpace:
"Beyond the conceptual language structure created by mankind, the definition of the name lies in internal rhythm, the internal sound that a man experiences.

Gareeda

Formed in the first quarter of 2010 following turbulent times in not just the local music scene, but the UK, Gareeda formed over a mutual taste in music, principles and methods of consuming bourbon.
The original line-up of Stu Gordon, Tommy Concrete, Michael Branagh & Toni Martone quickly entered the studio and started writing the first album. Following an offer to join The Exploited as guitarist, lyricist and singer Tommy had to step aside due to touring commitments.
