Celebrating their 20th Anniversary this year Sons Of Otis remains to be one of the true epic stoner / doom heavyweights. They toured with Kyuss, Queens Of The Stoneage, Fu Manchu and Electric Wizard. They got the major label treatment in the mid-nineties, something the could have lived without and went under along with cult label Man´s Ruin.
2009 marked their return with the release of “Exiled” on Small Stone Records.
Ufomammut is a power trio formed in 1999 in Italy by Poia, Urlo and Vita.
Ufomammut is worldwide recognized as the creator of a unique brand of psychedelic sludge.
With long songs, droning vocals and massive effects the band combines a monumental riffing attitude with the psychedelia of the more visionary Pink Floyd.
Ufomammut’s live show is supported by the internationally acclaimed video and graphic art of Malleus, a rock artists’ collective who conjure the entirety of Ufomammut’s visual impact.
Zippo starts in Pescara (Italy) and takes its first steps in the summer of 2004. The original aim was to play a thousand-faces-stoner-rock, from massive and pachydermic sounds to moments of quietness and peace.
Over the years their sound got heavier, darker, more psychedelic and prog-oriented; somewhat far from labels of any kind.
