Shellshocked Radio Recommendations - Rabia Sorda - Heart Eating Crows #142
May 09, 2022 04:00 - 1 minute - 1.84 MBHey Guys, after my Trio recommendation a more "fitting" one. Rabia Sorda "Heart Eating Crows" is more Industrial, harsh electronics or aggro tech. So definitely fitting to a Gothic, Darkwave and Industrial Channel. I have to admit that I just started to scratch the surface from all the songs they have, but as they are still around, I hope to find out more along the way. Check out their cool music: https://youtu.be/hlCNHf9-vYY https://open.spotify.com/track/5Y1l7aV9rYKuK6YCgY...
Shellshocked Radio Recommendations - Trio - Herz ist Trumpf #141
May 08, 2022 16:00 - 2 minutes - 2.68 MBHey Guys, please believe me, this is definitely not a joke but a serious recommendation. Even though this is a very unusual Song for my usual oeuvre or portfolio. BUT I was very young and definitely in my formative years as I discovered this song on the old cassettes of my father. Growing up behind the iron curtain, it was not easy to get such "imperialistic and capitalistic" tainted music, so it was even a small kind of protest to listen to these Neue Deutsche Welle Stars at the ti...
Shellshocked Radio Recommendations - Garmarna - Nåden - updated Swedish Folk Ballads for 2022 #282
May 07, 2022 04:00 - 2 minutes - 2.05 MB @Garmarna Official have been around since 1990 specializing in Folk Songs where they use old Swedish Folk Ballads as bases for their music and songs. So this song "Nåden" sounds very "folksy" reminding me of an children's song in parts. And I don't mean this disrespectful, hell, I recommend the song! It is a really dance-able, updated version of a folk ballad. Music for 2022! https://youtu.be/Si_yzHmVa9w https://open.spotify.com/track/0eDDn7mkotlzjVtwOqSf3g?si=1bca15002010435a...
Shellshocked Radio Recommendations - Dimi Kaye - Greyhounds #140
May 06, 2022 04:00 - 2 minutes - 2.15 MBHey Guys, today, my good friend @Dimi Kaye who is a really great musician and very versatile. He is also a "gun for hire" if you need some musical advice, help or even a whole song, he is your man! I had him twice on my Shellshocked Radio Talk Show already: https://youtu.be/mTMCqDx7hP0 here the second talk: https://youtu.be/BVcJSnb65vU and here the song (of so many other good ones) I recommend: https://youtu.be/Cm79ahqaeR0 https://open.spotify.com/track/4lJV7hxJGXfw...
Shellshocked Radio Recommendations - Irving Force - Gutter Cruiser - Industrial Metal Full Force ! #281
May 05, 2022 04:00 - 2 minutes - 2.48 MBThis is one of these songs you just have to listen to! @Irving Force is definitely a Force to be behold with. So much Stockholm Syndrome and Swedish Metal Goodness. This Song will rock your ass off for sure. Adam / Irving is just a Industrial Metal God!! https://youtu.be/QqeDqSKl8o4 https://open.spotify.com/track/2iravvYp23s9wmKFx78QNV?si=ba2febb0e5584f81 and of course, here it is in my playlist: https://playlist.shellshockedradio.com/link/griyke If you rather want to ...
Shellshocked Radio Recommendations - Lacrimosa - Alles Lüge #139
May 04, 2022 04:00 - 2 minutes - 2.56 MBHey Guys, I just realized that I have NOT made a recommendation for @LACRIMOSAofficial @Lacrimosa Forever by Wenn Ich Träume Lacrimosa done yet. How is this possible? They kind of were the very first band which I ever heard making Gothic Rock or as I called it back then Dark Wave with guitars. Back then in Hamburg ... as I was for the very first time in a Virgin Musicstore. I heard this song: https://youtu.be/V3dpV-_vpgQ and was smitten right away. I love this song still to...
Shellshocked Radio Recommendations - Patient 82 - Falling - Depeche Mode meets existentialism #281
May 03, 2022 04:00 - 2 minutes - 2.04 MBWell this is a more recent song again from an artist I just discovered. Patient 82 does Synth Wave, Cold Wave, electronica or nothing of all these ... he just makes great music! So far I know two songs of him and love both. "Falling" deals with as he describes it: "The frustration of modern life, being stuck in the same cycle day in, day out and searching for the escape." I'm very much reminded of @Depeche Mode music wise, so check out this very much underrated musician: https:...
Shellshocked Radio Recommendations - The Offspring - The Kids Aren't Alright #138
May 02, 2022 04:00 - 2 minutes - 2.74 MBHey Guys, today a "classic", showing me how I get on in age ... ;) @The Offspring have been around for so long ... and still are active thankfully. They have some "simple" fun songs, but this one is a bit more somber and serious. Still in their usual pop punk manner, but food for thought nevertheless. I also really like the video: https://youtu.be/7iNbnineUCI Anyway, I cannot think of anyone not knowing this song, so your welcome to re-visit and re-enjoy it. If it is new fo...
Shellshocked Radio Recommendations - Broken Links - Pioneers #137
May 01, 2022 16:00 - 2 minutes - 2.43 MBHey Guys, can you remember when you found a really cool band with great songs and nobody knew them and you could tell all your friends about them? This is how I feel about @Broken Links They make great music! If you like @Muse , you will love Broken Links! They are a Trio from the UK as well, and make their very distinct version of great alternative music. If you wanna know more about them, please check out my talk with Mark, the guitar player and singer of the band, here: ...
Shellshocked Radio Recommendations - Woods of Ypres - Wet Leather - depressive Rock done right RIP #280
April 30, 2022 04:00 - 2 minutes - 2.76 MBYeah, this is nothing but Butterflies and Sunshine ... when your Song starts with the lyrics "Live is just pain and piss, nothing that I would miss ..." You instantly know that your in for a tread ... if you like dark music like me. So F&%$ off Butterflies and Sunshine, these are lyrics a suicidal person could have written ... so please be a bit cautious with @WoodsOfYpresVEVO and their great Song "Wet Leather", if you are in a very dark mood / environment, it might not be the best choi...
Shellshocked Radio Recommendations - Deine Lakaien - Love Me to the End #136
April 29, 2022 04:00 - 1 minute - 1.3 MBHey guys, once again a short one because ... what can I add to @Deine Lakaien - Topic @Deine Lakaien ? They have been around for so long and produced so many great songs, it is really hard to chose just one, and I could recommend just the band and their whole body of work, like with @officialkmfdm or @Depeche Mode . But I like especially "Love Me to the End", so I highly recommend this one: https://youtu.be/WINzqsAlcYs https://open.spotify.com/track/2P5QWgYVpbPZy1iqmGlVr...

April 28, 2022 04:00 - 2 minutes - 2.23 MBHell Yeah! This is 80's synth Goth done goddamn right! These two "Twins" ;) from Texas don't re-invent the wheel, Gothic / Post Punk that is in this case, BUT what they do the do damn right. This is old school Synth Goth done right!

Shellshocked Radio Recommendations - Full Contact 69 - Face to Face - Another KMFDM from Thuringia? #278
April 26, 2022 04:00 - 2 minutes - 2.76 MBWell guys, today I need your help! Maybe the "wisdom of the crowd (cloud)" can help me get in contact with the Guys from "Full Contact 69" as they apparently live very close by in the Capital City of Thuringia (my home county, here in Germany) so basically "across the street" from me but I have never met them or had contact with them yet. So if everyone knows these guys who are behind the great song of today's recommendation "Face to Face" please let me know in the comments or get in touch...
Shellshocked Radio Recommendations - VNV Nation - When is the Future? #134
April 25, 2022 04:00 - 2 minutes - 2.44 MBHey guys, @VNV Nation is like @Depeche Mode or @officialkmfdm one of these bands where it is tough to recommend just a single song. I got to know them through my girlfriend from Canada & was very happy to discover the vast body of work they have already created. I even got married to one of their songs, but this will be a later recommendation ... So please check out their great song "When is the Future?": https://youtu.be/SF5mf4LV7Jw https://open.spotify.com/track/7goNb...
Shellshocked Radio Recommendations - Blood - Destroy #133
April 24, 2022 16:00 - 2 minutes - 2.41 MBLets talk about "Blood" today! :) This song "Destroy" brought the artist on my radar and I wanted to know more about him, so I sat down with him for a "Shellshocked Radio - Talk", here it is: https://youtu.be/PsaHRA0QURU if you want some background information about the artist, the song and @Cleopatra Records . The song itself is very toned down and not overstuffed or over ambiguous. Just simple, very nice dark pop. Check it out here: https://youtu.be/5mYLa02gWGo https:...
Shellshocked Radio Recommendations - Corroding Sun - Just Reflections - Criminally underrated Metal #277
April 23, 2022 04:00 - 2 minutes - 2.43 MBHell Yeah! A criminally underrated German Metal Band today! Corroding Sun (cool Band name btw. ...) is a German Metal Band from which I know almost nothing about. They exist since 2015 and are from Germany my Home Country or Fatherland, Motherland ... however you wanna call it ;) I think they deserve more recognition! Which is the most underrated Metal Band for you? Please let me know in the comments! https://youtu.be/Y-u49tMob5E https://open.spotify.com/track/6HedW7YA9d0bvW6ayyZO...
Shellshocked Radio Recommendations - Fleischkrieg - Relax (Frankie Goes To Hollywood Cover) #132
April 22, 2022 04:00 - 2 minutes - 2.75 MBHell Yeah! @FleischKrieg made a real cool version out of the poppy pop song from @Frankie Goes To Hollywood . The music is much better now ;) and the video is so "raunchy" that @YouTube even asks you if you want to proceed ... what a Kindergarten the Internet has become ... Trust me, you want to proceed :) https://youtu.be/8zk4jnu2O88 https://open.spotify.com/track/4h3H9fdU8vaRlbI68pi84x?si=0d21dae293cc4142 and here it is in my playlist: https://playlist.shellshockedrad...
Shellshocked Radio Recommendations - Kite - Dance Again - Grandiose delicate Pop from Sweden #276
April 21, 2022 04:00 - 2 minutes - 2.71 MBSo, to get you angry right away, @KiteHQ is great but a very good example for an observation which might give a few of us hope ;) You do not have to be pretty to make good (pop) music :) As the singer, Nicklas, is nothing to "write home about". His brittle and non-strong voice fits perfectly into this grand, delicate Pop, especially in the Song "Dance Again", so please hate me all you want, as long as you do it in the comments, I will love you for that as it will feed the algorithm g...
Shellshocked Radio Recommendations - Ministry - Search and Destroy #131
April 20, 2022 04:00 - 2 minutes - 2.38 MBHey Guys, yes, I'm a big fanboy of Ministry, no doubt about that, nevertheless I honestly can recommend this great song "Search and Destroy" from them. I'm just happy that they are still around making kick ass music. This song is a slight departure from their usual, more "speedy" kind of industrial Rock, here Al Jourgensen gives an explanation why: https://youtu.be/q2rX3WwXzWs Anyway, great "slower" Rock Song, check it out here: https://youtu.be/psHDeiXRVwQ https://open.spot...
Shellshocked Radio Recommendations - Patrick Stegner - Freaking Me Out - Heavy Happy Instrumental #275
April 19, 2022 04:00 - 1 minute - 1.82 MBThis is Heavy Happy Instrumental Rock Music from Patrick Stegner from which I know nothing ... I think he is a German, he can play his guitar very well and I like his Instrumental outing: "Freaking Me Out", that is all I know ... But as I want to provide you with little unknown Gems, so that you can listen to new things and do not hear the same songs and artists over and over again ... please check out this little unknown song: https://youtu.be/RR3--a7SlvU https://open.spotify.com/...
Shellshocked Radio Recommendations - In Flames - Only for the weak #130
April 18, 2022 04:00 - 2 minutes - 2.48 MBHey Guys, I guess I do not have to say much to this band. Around since 1990, they have plowed their way through many festivals into the hearts and ears of fans world wide. @In Flames come from GOTHenburg. as I like to call it, a hub of creativity and many musicians / bands I like. This song "Only for the weak" is a well crafted, ageless Rock song and I love to listen to it, as it just not tires out. Check it out here: https://youtu.be/qnLunQEcMn0 https://open.spotify.com/tr...

Shellshocked Radio Recommendations - Falco - Rock Me Amadeus - Wiener Schmäh in German Rap Music #273
April 16, 2022 04:00 - 2 minutes - 2.62 MBWell, Mr. Johann Hölzel, much better known as @FalcoVEVO is unfortunately not longer with us, BUT his (quirky) songs will stay with us forever. I was 10 years old as "Amadeus" hit the heavy radio rotation, so heavy that even in the GDR, behind the iron curtain (in the communist / Russian zone) you could not escape the "Wiener Schmäh" of this, now, Legend. Falco was everywhere. One of the first German speaking people to "rap" and going full out in the video, with his showmanship. So y...
Shellshocked Radio Recommendations - Withering Season - Am I to Die For #129
April 15, 2022 04:00 - 1 minute - 1.47 MBHey Guys, this is a great "sing along" Gothic rock song from "Withering Season" and I mean that in a positive way.

April 13, 2022 04:00 - 1 minute - 1.7 MBHey Guys, once again a real cool song from the mysterious artist Dark ( https://www.youtube.com/channel/UC3QYVa-ZeKeEvSkhLBDEeNw ) where I only know that he lives in Hamburg and uses models and other people to perform in his videos. Like in the Video today, the model: https://www.instagram.com/infernal.moth/ Gorgeous, no question about it ;) The music is perfect darkwave, absolutely up my alley. It was the first song I ever heard of him and so far I have not heard one I did not...

Shellshocked Radio Recommendations - Ewigheim - Tanz um Dein Leben - German Gothic Rock done well! #270
April 10, 2022 04:00 - 1 minute - 1.63 MBHell Yeah! Ewigheim is still one of the most underrated German Gothic Bands. The Vision Bleak or Eisregen are far better known, but Ewigheim is just great in their unapologetic, raw, simple but efficient delivery. This music, this song takes no prisoners and delivers exactly what you want from a good Gothic Rock Song. Driving rhythms, cool vocal delivery ... no holds barred ... simple but effective. You do not need to show of to make a great Rock Song! Check out this Gem here: h...
Shellshocked Radio Recommendations - Sylvaine - L'Appel Du Vide enchanting soundscapes from a Fairy #269
April 09, 2022 04:00 - 2 minutes - 2.67 MB @Sylvaine is hard to classify genre wise. She does enchanting #soundscapes which defy genre walls. I would say this song "L'Appel Du Vide" could be put somewhere into #folk #folkmetal with #cinematic #fairy #pixie like female vocals. Really hard to say ... What is easy for me to say though, is that I love this song and you surely should check it out! https://youtu.be/8D_dgE2dYko https://open.spotify.com/track/2VUxvWxmUJXp2neuoOq1zx?si=d39c39bed2ef4a89 and of course, here ...
Shellshocked Radio Recommendations - FEUD - VLAST #126
April 08, 2022 04:00 - 2 minutes - 1.85 MBHey Guys, I guess my very first band from Serbia I recommend. Unfortunately I do not know much about them besides that. But as there are quite some production value in the video, I think they might be a bit bigger in Serbia. If you know them, please let me know how I can get in touch with them. Great band, great music ... great mystery ... ;) https://youtu.be/Imdjc50Rmr4 https://open.spotify.com/track/6bqDwgy01Kp5nJ3Y2yQkIV?si=141a275155e745ab and here they are in my playli...
Shellshocked Radio Recommendations - Doll Klaw - Angelica - Dark Synth Pop Wave for a lost Friend #268
April 07, 2022 04:00 - 2 minutes - 2.41 MBI had the pleasure to talk with "Doll Klaw"'s Jessica a year ago, check out my talk with her here: https://youtu.be/fb9xd1PIdYU She is a quirky over the top performer usually, but here, in the Song "Angelica" she is singing about the loss of her dear friend, so it is much more somber and held back than her usual music & songs. But I like this as well, a bitter sweet pop song about loss ... I guess everyone can relate to this. https://youtu.be/zJJQN6O94xQ https://open.spotify....
Shellshocked Radio Recommendations - die form - Voltaic Control System #125
April 06, 2022 04:00 - 2 minutes - 2.37 MBSorry, I have nothing substantial to add here, I just love this iconic song.

Shellshocked Radio Recommendations - Joachim Witt - Ohne Dich - 40 years of musical goodness! #267
April 05, 2022 04:00 - 2 minutes - 2.67 MB @Joachim Witt is a Legend! Period! He has been around for almost 50 years and still is going strong. He progressed from his early NDW (Neue Deutsche Welle) days from Pop Rock to more Gothic and Darkwave layered outings. This man is a ROCK! With over 70 years he still is around to make great music! Check out his work with @PeterHeppnerVEVO : https://youtu.be/Jx59YE-hNx4 I was blessed to be able to play him already in my "Shellshocked Radio - Discovery" Show: https://www....
Shellshocked Radio Recommendations - The Bionic Protector - Parasite X #124
April 04, 2022 04:00 - 2 minutes - 2.58 MBOh man, this song got seriously stuck in my head this morning. It was running in a loop the whole bike ride to my gym. Luckily for me it is a great song! My biggest "issue" with "The Bionic Protector" is that I love almost all of his songs. So it is really hard to just recommend one. Check out his whole portfolio if you like this song, you will not be dissapointed! If you want to know more about the artist behind this gem, check out my talk with him here: https://youtu.be/AiRp2...
Shellshocked Radio Recommendations - THE BLACK CAPES And I Wait - Gothic Rock from Greece Hell Yeah! #266
April 03, 2022 04:00 - 2 minutes - 2.08 MBOh Yeah! THE BLACK CAPES do just unapologetic Gothic Rock in the vein of @typeonegative The Sisters of Mercy and that a like. Check out my talk with Thanos: https://youtu.be/rv0_6WMKrIA which I caught in the Studio producing more great music. As you can clearly tell, this music is absolutely up my alley and what I love, so I highly recommend that you check out (my talk ... ;) and this great song: https://youtu.be/eSh89fVyvaY https://open.spotify.com/track/3K1XW4vmvFZsUGKWOo...
Shellshocked Radio Recommendations - EYE STEAL - T.V. ARMOUR - Torture, Despair & Self Destruction #265
April 02, 2022 04:00 - 2 minutes - 2.48 MBToronto based @EYE STEAL have a sound similar to @IAMX or @Blue Stahli thick, drawing you in, into a web of carefully woven melodies and harmonies ... this web is hard to escape, so I must warn you, their songs tend to get stuck in your head ... at least in mine they get stuck. In German we call this an "Ohrwurm". That is a mark of a great song and good song craftsmanship, if you cannot shake it ... So I wholeheartedly recommend this gem! https://youtu.be/kvp4rQPrdVk https:...
Shellshocked Radio Recommendations - Moonspell - Opium #123
April 01, 2022 04:00 - 2 minutes - 2.25 MBHey Guys, today "Opium" what a great song! Yes, I cannot be objective here, but who can that really be? And after all, it is my recommendation for you, so of cause it's "tainted". I remember discovering this song, seeing the video for the first time, I loved it then, and I love it today! This song is ageless, unfortunately it is the only one of @Moonspell I really love. Otherwise their music is "okay", at least in my ears. If you want to make me reconsider this statement, pleas...
Shellshocked Radio Recommendations - Pet Shop Boys - It's A Sin - No it is not a Sin to love Pop! #264
March 31, 2022 04:00 - 2 minutes - 2.74 MBThe @PetShopBoys Parlophone have been around for over 40 years now, so I'm quite sure that you have heard of them by now. This was / is one of their first big hits "It's A Sin" and I remember as it came out ... having a small friendly family feud with my brother about which ones favorite bands, mine was @Depeche Mode and his the Pet Shop Boys, is the better one ... quite futile as you can imagine, just a brotherly rivalry ... The Song still holds up today as a Pop Anthem with religio...
Shellshocked Radio Recommendations - Joachim Witt feat. Peter Heppner - Die Flut #122
March 30, 2022 04:00 - 3 minutes - 2.78 MBHey Guys, this song was all over Germany as it came out 1998 as two German (musical) "heavy weights" were involved in creating it. @Joachim Witt , Neue Deutsche Welle Star which moved more and more in the "Gothic" realm of the music. Even a bit "Neue Deutsche Härte" like @Rammstein Official sometimes. And @Peter Heppner @PeterHeppnerVEVO the singer of Wolfsheim, which I've already recommended to you: https://youtu.be/XoYt6i-856w So here a match made in Heaven, this song...
Shellshocked Radio Recommendations - Bartlett Bros & Andrea Mazza Mix - Light To Lies - Dance Floor #263
March 29, 2022 04:00 - 2 minutes - 2.21 MBThis is a more unusual Shellshocked Radio Recommendation, as I would classify this genre as "Dance Floor" but as I'm far away from my usual comfort Zone here, you know, Gothic Rock, Industrial Metal or Darkwave, I do not really know what I'm talking about here. But I'm here to recommend, and recommend I can this great song unabashedly for sure. Check out this fun Gem here: https://youtu.be/ebMG1-gsJfs https://open.spotify.com/track/7AZea6Lx3QtR2SFpow8eps?si=37eac76abc674520 and ...
Shellshocked Radio Recommendations - Rosenstolz - Ich geh auf Glas #121
March 28, 2022 04:00 - 2 minutes - 2.4 MBHey Guys, this is a band from my hometown, so I'm a bit biased of course. One of my past girlfriends were madly into them. But this song from @RosenstolzVEVO @Rosenstolzvideo "Ich geh auf Glas" (I walk on glas) is really good and worth your time. The singer is a classical trained singer as far as I know, so her voice is truly brilliant and elevates the music even more. This is a sad song, fitting perfectly into my oeuvre of darkness and despair ... I'm such a positive guy, ri...
Shellshocked Radio Recommendations - CREMATORY - The Downfall - German Gothic Metal done right! #262
March 27, 2022 04:00 - 1 minute - 1.77 MBShellshocked Radio Recommendations recommends the Song "The Downfall" by the German Gothic Metal Band (Legend ...) Crematory. As you will know by now, I'm not a huge fan of "growling" vocals, but have to admit that the Crematory style of growling is fine with me, as it is not the juvenile "I cannot sing so I scream" kind, which I hear so often in the song submissions for my radio show ( https://www.shellshockedradio.com ). Anyway, this kind of Gothic Metal is exactly what I love, so chec...
Shellshocked Radio Recommendations - Rabia Sorda - Out Of Control - Industrial music from Mexico #261
March 26, 2022 05:00 - 2 minutes - 2.18 MBRabia Sorda, the side project from Erk Aicrag, lead singer of the Mexican aggrotech band Hocico, this is much more up my alley as the music from his much more noisy main project. Rabia Sorda, is much more accessible, more "Song" like than his aggrotech outings, at least in my ears ;) Check out the pumping & pulsing "Out of Control" https://youtu.be/L72owiQBivk https://open.spotify.com/track/5eTcghooi64DYUgxUcTXln?si=ae0b09f2bad74ce2 and of course, here it is in my playlist: ...
Shellshocked Radio Recommendations - Peter Schilling – Die Wüste lebt (Alarmsignal...) #120
March 25, 2022 05:00 - 2 minutes - 2.75 MBWell, that is an old and "classic" song, I recommend you today. Released in 1983 it deals with earth warming and climate disasters. Yes, nothing new under the sun, I know, since the club of Rome we know what is coming ... but here it is packed into a nice poppy package. Also, as I state in the video, I cannot be absolutely objective here, but you know that anyway, as I grew up with this song & artist, in my "formative years". But then again, how can "my" recommendations be objective an...
Shellshocked Radio Recommendations - S. P. O. C. K - Never trust a Klingon Star Trek Sci-fi music #260
March 24, 2022 05:00 - 2 minutes - 1.98 MBToday a little departure of my usual Gothic, Darkwave & Metal doomy, gloomy fare. Lets venture into a Sci-Fi inspired realm, as the band "S. P. O. C. K" is clearly inspired by Star Trek. The song is a dire warning to never trust a Klingon ... as they chop of your arm whenever you reach them a helping hand ;) So be warned here: https://youtu.be/5OL1kk-vEOo https://open.spotify.com/track/5mMP95hbFlZZyUE9TApe7z?si=e192705f2532498f and of course, here it is in my playlist: htt...
Shellshocked Radio Recommendations - Kirlian Camera - Blue Room #119
March 23, 2022 05:00 - 2 minutes - 2.75 MBDear congregation, today I recommend you a band, which seemingly has been around forever. They fit perfectly in my forte or portfolio. I would describe them as "Dark Pop", but you can find your own definition of course. I really like that they are the "full package", meaning that they also have a distinct look and aura to their sound and music. The Song "Blue Room" is just one example of course and you should listen to other songs of them, most are really good. "Blue Room", to be a...
Shellshocked Radio Recommendations - A Pale Horse Named Death - Shallow Grave Doomy Type'o Negative #259
March 22, 2022 05:00 - 2 minutes - 2.49 MBHell Yeah! This is Doomy, Gloomy @typeonegative inspired (Hard)Rock goodness. It plows over you like a steamroller and takes no prisoners. Hell Yeah, I love this song. Doomy fuzzy guitars, or is it the bass, like with Type'o Negative? I don't know and do not really care as this is just wholesome doom gloom goodness. I apologize for swooning all over this song, but hey, shouldn't I love the music I recommend? ;) Check out the masterpiece here: https://youtu.be/2XS2pejCfLQ htt...
