Weedeater

[BouncingCzechs]

This band owns your soul.
Discuss.

I've never listened to them, but I love Bongzilla. They are playing for free at a bar in the city a week after tomorrow.

[Big Fatty W]

I was supposed to see them playing with Sunn and Earth. I am not 21, however... (Stupid Independent venue)

Weedeater is one of Bongzilla's albums, right? I enjoy the hell out of that band, have had lots of trouble getting there material so i'm familiar with only one full length - Amerjuanican.
I always looking for more bands who play good stoner metal, especially the extreme shit like Zilla... You ever listened to Bongripper Czechs?

[Frosty]

They're a totally different band. They have their similarities though.

[Concubine]

Gotta love that dirty, heavy ass southern rock.
And if I'm not mistaken, "Dixie" from Buzz-oven fronts this band.

[PsychoholicSlag]

ahhh yes.. sludgey.. very sludgey. here's a video for your enjoyment. http://vids.myspace.com/index.cfm?fusea ... id=1362228

Well that was a pretty awesome free show. Fucking Lair of the Minotaur opened and summarily broke my neck. Minsk played next and would have been fun if I had some doses, but I didn't so they were boring. Weedeater was great. The Empty Bottle is now 2 for 2 in terms of convincing me to buy the headliner's newest album. If anything it was worth buying for Weedeater's cover of Gimme Back My Bullets, which fucking ruled hard.

Weedeater is a band that's similar to bongzilla but much much better, heavy and loud.
Amazing band, must check them out!

would you care to expound on why you feel this way?

[BouncingCzechs]

Well for one they're so heavy it's ridiculous, I for one appreciate the more heavy versions of sludge; raw etc. SO they're a more raw/talented version of Bongzilla really.
Bongzilla just has relapses production and shtuff.
Weedeater is absolutely ridiculous; download all their albums off me; you'll see.
Think Eyehategod/Bongzilla.

[AcidDreams]

Did you read the whole thread? I just bought their new one. It's definitely cool.

[Frosty]

He was probably drunk.

[Layon]

I'm extremely soft but I like those drunk/high/full of weed sludge bands.

[vijay]

amazing album,
slow, doomy, with reflection of southern rock, think they will never give up on their groovy side. love the quivering bass work \m/

[BouncingCzechs]

Good sir Frost is correct; only time I'm on this forum is when I'm drunk or getting there.

[AcidDreams]

Mayhaps we shall see them again tomorrow night!

[oldcrow]

I have to respect a band that tours as hard and plays as many shows in my area as they do. Seems like they're always coming through nearby venues. That being so, I definately prefer Bongzilla, though admitedly, I haven't heard a large amount of either band.

[Aum Shinrikyo]

I saw Weedeater a few weeks ago. They're way better live than on cd.

And ever since I heard their singer talk, I've been smoking more and drinking alot more whiskey. I want that gravelly whiskey-drenched voice, so bad.

[AcidDreams]

did you get to meet him? He's really nice.

[Concubine]

Seeing them tonight!

Nice.

[DontFearTheGovt]

This band is good, but they just sound exactly like bongzilla.

[C.H.U.D.]

I really don't give a shit about this band.

[oldcrow]

REVIVED.

Thought Chud's post was a bad way to end this thread, so I'll just say that I've had Wizard Fights stuck in my head since I heard it yesterday, and in turn have been kicking myself for not catching any of their shows. Would I be better served buying their new album or one of their old ones?

[Aum Shinrikyo]

All I've heard is "God Luck & Good Speed", but its fucking stellar. And if you can catch 'em live, do it to it.

[AcidDreams]

Sixteen Tons is pretty good, but GL&GS is even better.

[Desdinova]

Good stuff, but I don't really care for the vocals I'm afraid.

[Aum Shinrikyo]

Oh, they're so gruff and whiskey-drenched! Especially on that little interlude track with the banjo...love it.

[C.H.U.D.]

I'm so fucking tired of this redneck bullshit being SO huge and amazing. It all sounds the same.
