Dopes to infinity…..
Thu, 02 Jul 2009 15:20:00 +0100She must be deaf sitting in front of all that gear. This last photo taken by Chris West.***Well, well, look what we have here. Honestly I thought I had randomly stumbled upon this and that it would be new to the blogosphere, as I had found it outside of the normal areas. Not so. I was researching for this post and soon came to find, it’s everywhere, except here. I have been riding the Dope brother’s train for weeks now, you know ‘em, Smoker and Throne. It is no surprise then that I find this album very appealing. I was excited to find it and after listening to it, it is as good as I’d hope. Yeah the riffs may sound familiar, but so fuckin’ what (sometimes the riffs are so good…). They are still able to take you to that other place. I think the Dope family just got a little bigger. While this may not be a long lost brother, it surely is a first cousin to the Dopes. I’m sure that the God awful weather (rain and more rain….then more rain) here in New England has had a hand in what I’ve been listening to lately, but this fit the bill today for sure. You really should check these guys out and support them. If you get the chance to see ‘em live. I’ve been told by a Mr. Chris West, they have a shit-ton of gear and are ear-splittingly loud. Visit their MySpace profile, they have some really cool shirts for sale (rather in expensive too). Seeing how posting this is not unique in itself, I want to share with you the very cool back story to the band’s name. It’s pretty cool. As of yet I have not found a review, and I think that one may only cloud your perception of what you’ll hear. If you put yourself in an open and clear frame of mind, I think you find you like what you experience with this. My only wish with this is that the vocals were a little less buried (a Throne brother attribute) and more up front. With the Cisneros like cadence, there is some melody in them there vocals that could be really catchy if slightly more audible. It does not take away from the album though. The rest of it is produced and mixed excellently. Anyway, as always, enjoy! - ZL “Formed at the crossroads between 2006 and 2007. The programme of intent is based on a strong acknowledgement to the forces associated with the downtrodden. The name PombaGira comes from the Afro-Brazilian religion of Quimbanda. Within the confines of this religion for those socially marginalised, PombaGira's attributes are strength and protection. She is the wife/consort of Exu, a trickster spirit that has in the past been mistaken for the devil. She is the protectress of the downfallen, prostitutes and the weak. She commands obedience and is considered to have a fiery constitution. Because she 'serves with both hands', an... (Read complete news)
