Spidergawd - Is This Love..?

SPIDERGAWD is a rock band formed in Trondheim, Norway in 2013. A band that easily would be classed as one of the finest from that country in the present time.

The founding fathers of the beast was Per Borten (CADILLAC & MOVING OOS) on guitars and vocals, Bent Sæther (MOTORPSYCHO, THE INTERNATIONAL TUSSLER SOCIETY & SUGARFOOT) on bass, Rolf Martin Snustad (HOPALONG KNUT, SMAVIRKELAGET & NORTHERN STAR GROOVE ALLIANCE) on saxophones and Kenneth Kapstad (MOTORPSYCHO, MONOLITHIC, GOD SEED & GÅTE) on drums. On June 1 2016 it was announced that Bent Sæther was leaving the band to have more time for his other projects. The band brought on Hallvard Gaardløs (ORANGO) as a fulltime bassist, who had been touring with the band in support of the "Spidergawd III" album.

They released their debut album "Spidergawd" on 31 January 2014, and their sophomore album "Spidergawd II" on 16 January 2015. The next album, appropriately called "Spidergawd III", was released 22 January 2016. The band has been touring Norway, Germany, The Netherlands and Italy on grounds familiar to MOTORPSYCHO, which are hungry for more Norwegian rock.

Today's tune "Is This Love..?" taken from "Spidergawd IV", filmed Live in Soergarden Studio. Un-edited sound. Nothing but the naked truth... enjoy!

Corrosion of Conformity - On Your Way

”IX” is the title of the ninth album with Corrosion of Conformity and On Your Way is the title of todays tune. Simple as that, well...

...IX is more back to the roots with the groove-heavy riffing and 70's boogie that made the band famous.

The Vinyl Edition of IX

Corrosion of Conformity (also known as C.O.C.) is an American heavy metal band from Raleigh, North Carolina formed in 1982. For almost the majority of its existence, the band has consisted of guitarist Woody Weatherman, bassist Mike Dean (who left in 1987 but rejoined six years later), drummer Reed Mullin (who left in 2001 but rejoined nine years later) and vocalist and rhythm guitarist Pepper Keenan (who joined the band in 1989). After a hiatus in 2006, Corrosion of Conformity returned in 2010, without Keenan who is currently in Down (although it has been disputed whether Keenan has left the band). 
To date, Corrosion of Conformity has released nine studio albums, two EPs, one compilation, and one live album. Their first three studio albums ― Eye for an Eye (1984), Animosity (1985) and Blind (1991) ― attracted the attention of Columbia Records, who signed the band in 1993. Corrosion of Conformity found success with the release of their 1994 fourth studio album, Deliverance, which spawned the hits "Albatross" and "Clean My Wounds". Their 1996 follow-up Wiseblood was also successful, and became Corrosion of Conformity's highest-charting album in the United States. Corrosion of Confirmity released the ninth album "IX" on July 1, 2014.

Todays tune "On Your Way" is as retro as it can be of the new tunes on ”IX”, enjoy.

Screamin' Cheetah Wheelies - Somethin' Else

Sunday, time for a classic, this time we pick a cool band from Nashville, Tennessee, a band with a really cool name "Screamin' Cheetah Wheelies",  formed in the early 1990s. The band embraced a southern boogie style which led to comparisons with groups such as Lynyrd Skynyrd, The Allman Brothers Band, The Black Crowes, Collective Soul, and Cry of Love. The band played at a blues club near Vanderbilt University before being signed to Atlantic Records in 1993. The band drew its name from one of Gary Larson's comics The Far Side.

Members Mike Farris (vocals), Rick White (guitar), Bob Watkins (guitar), Steve Burgess (bass) and Terry Thomas (drums) released their self-titled debut album in 1994.

And it's from that album we pick todays tune "Somethin' Else". The album was recorded at Ardent Studios in Memphis, Tennessee and produced by Paul Ebersold. "The Screamin' Cheetah Wheelies" was an album that "played like a gateway between guitar hero classic rock and hippie jam band grooves, often combining both within the confines of a single track."

Todays tune "Somethin' Else" is taken from the self titled debut album The Screamin' Cheetah Wheelies (Atlantic Records, 1994)

Honky - WFO

When you think of Texas, what comes to mind? Big skies? Big trucks? Big Guys? Big Hamburgers? Hot women with big… uh, well… big hair? Everything, as they say, is bigger in Texas… And that what ain’t bigger is more bizarre. After all, in a state that refers to itself as a republic… things can get pretty skewed.

Honky is a Austin Superboogie trio that was founded in 1996 by long time Butthole Surfer, part time Melvins bassist JD Pinkus,Bobby Ed Landgraf (DOWN,Gahdzilla Motor Company, Blowfly) on guitar , and rounded out by Michael "Night Train" Brueggen (Blackula, Syrup, Supagroup) on them skins.

Honky playes a lo-fi boogie, hi-sleaze dirty red-headed rock with heavy riff that reminds of ZZ Top

Todays tune "WFO" is a single taken off of the album 421. The album is co-written and co-produced by Pinkus and Landgraf at Willie Nelson’s famed Pedernales studio and mixed by Butthole Surfer Paul Leary (U2, Meat Puppets, Sublime) with mastering duties being handled by Brian “BIG BASS” Gardner ( Micheal Jackson, NWA, Eminem, the Band, Alice Cooper).

Jetbone - Ain't It a Shame

Jetbone is a band from Sundsvall, Sweden. The band has existed since 2008 melting down their special brew of Power Pop, Blues & Boogie. Jetbone is an explosive load of straight forward Rock & Roll! The members of the band have known each other since they were kids, growing up together playing soccer and hockey among other things. During their high shcool years they merged together with a mutual interest in good music. By mixing their different influences they developed their own style of Rock & Roll, deriving their sound mainly from 1970's hard rock and rock bands such as Kiss, The Faces and The Rolling Stones. They're also influenced by the likes of Jackson Browne and you'll also definitely hear some echoes of the 90's Garage/Punk wave. Raunchy hard hitting guitars, wild drums, a screaming organ and a punchy bass all topped with punky "spit it out" vocals are some of the ingredients of their of their clean-cut new rocking tunes, Jetbone Rock & Roll.

With influences from Rolling Stones, Black Crowes, Lynyrd Skynyrd and many others, Jetbone has perfected the art of 70s Rock n' Roll - made for today. It is not hard to see why the band has been called "the most hard working band in Sundsvall". With hundreds of gigs, one full self-titled album and one single the band has started to hit the international scene with tours in Russia, Spain and UK among others.

"I can imagine myself dancing in some small dark concert hall that smells of sweat, cigarettes, beer and in the background the music of Jetbone. If an album can inspire you those feelings, it means this is really rock & roll. And I like it! One of the surprises of 2012!" - FREE! Magazine

Backdraft - Idiot

A few days ago, a friend (”Jojje” the bassplayer from Supralunar) and I visit to Lilla Hotellbaren/Scandic Malmen at Folkkungagatan 47 to see Backdraft’s gig. Backdraft’s bass player Mats help to run Stockholm’s only old-school country/blues/soul/roots club ”Club Nuggets” the second Thursday every month at Lilla Hotellbaren/Scandic Malmen.

Backdraft is Swedish rockband with influences from southern roots. After having made their entrance on the scene with the fairly straight-forward southern rock debut Here To Save You All in the fall of 2001 – lauded by some critics as the best in the field in more than twenty years, and this by a Swedish band! – and then taking a few years off before returning with 2007’s The Second Coming, Backdraft now back with This Heaven Goes To Eleven – their third, most ambitious album to date.

So this time it was Mats and his own band to take the stage, along with Uppsala blues man Einar (Allan Coe) who did a warm up numbers, who can also be found in punk rockers Obnoxious Youth and also perform under the Anal Karaktär moniker. I must say that this guy is truly amazing with his blues, it sounded great.

Shortly after Einar it was time for Backdraft to enter the stage, they did a semi-acoustic, slightly countrified boogie set, first time i heard them like this and holy moses it sounded great, with this setlist, the semi-acoustic approach they could play at any bar in Nashville and do huge success. Some musicians, such as "Mats Johansson" and "David Johannesson” from Mustasch and Fredrik Jansson from Witchcraft and Petri from Supralunar and a few others was there and checking out Backdraft

The dj:s was Veronica Mazurkiewicz and Daniel Josefsson

Left to right: Jonas Åhlén (vocals), Mats Rydström (bass), Jon Sundberg (guitar), Niklas Matsson (drums), Robert Johansson (guitar).
