YOUR FIRST TASTE OF DAVE LOMBARDO’S PHILM

Wow, that headline sounds yucky. My apologies.

ANYWAY, you may or may not be aware that Dave Lombardo, the twenty-first best drummer in modern metal, has had a side project called Philm in the works for a minute now. Well, the band will finally release their debut, Harmonic, next month, and are now streaming a song over at Terrorizer. I’d tell you what it’s called but I can’t because nowhere is the title of the track listed. But title or no, I like it! It’s way different from anything Lombardo has done before — the drummer himself says that the music is “like taking all the heavy songs of the ’60s and bringing that era to a modern plateau, then blending them with the modern trance and psychedelic sounds of today” — but his performance is typically excellent.

Check out the tune here, then weigh in with your thoughts in the comments section below. Harmonic comes out May 15 via  Ipecac.
