MetalSucks

Here at MetalisNotGood, we take our stony music quite seriously.

Duh.

So clearly we’re rabid fans of the almighty Tee Pee Records, a label known for representing the best in stony bands from the US and abroad…..in this case, ‘abroad’ means Canada (why not?), and the band you oughtta check out is Toronto’s Quest For Fire. This is music for taking bong hits in the eye of a hurricane to — the songs shift from calm, haunting, almost-drony creepers to raucously boogie-stomping classic rock-ish ragers…..their self-titled album (due out on June 9th) definitely exhibits range in mood whilst retaining a specific ’sound’ throughout.

Metal with a capital KILL, this is most definitely not — but fans of shweet/shwirly/shtony bands like Dead Meadow shan’t be disappointed.

You can currently catch these craysee Canucks on the road with The Pink Mountaintops…..tour dates on MySpace, but NYers be forewarned — they’ll be in Brooklyn this Friday night and Manny-Hatty on Saturday. Light em up!
