MARYLAND DOOM FEST 2019 PHOTOS: Friday, June 21
Friday night at the Doom Fest featured bands from all across the country — from Ohio to Indiana, Dallas to Seattle…and of course, a few from Maryland, as well.
Lo-Pan
Lo-Pan – In Tensions EP
Columbus heavy rock crew Lo-Pan is kicking off 2017 in style with this five-song, 22-minute EP. The grizzled tour veterans head out with “Go…
AMATEUR CONCERT PHOTOGRAPHY HOUR: BONGZILLA, Black Cobra, Kings Destroy, Lo-Pan @ Mod Club, April 5, 2016
I was somewhat surprised to see Bongzilla headlining a concert-hall tour in 2016, but hey, with a four-band bill that brought it from start to finish, I’m certainly not one to complain!
Lo-Pan – Colossus
I didn’t love the last Lo-Pan album when it came out, but having seen ’em live a couple times since, I can dig it. …
Holy triple bill, Batman!
Anyways, warming the unseasonably cold wastelands of Toronto tonight is a terrific touring package featuring Torche, KEN Mode and Lo-Pan. It feels like I haven’t seen Torche in a long time, but turns out I last caught ’em last summer when they toured with COC…
Devil to Pay – Fate is Your Muse
Hellbound Metal: In any case, they might have flown under the radar for some time, but this album proves that if you sleep on this Indy outfit, well, payback is a bitch. 😉
Clamfight – I Vs. the Glacier
Overall, this is a pretty solid sludge record. Nothing that I haven’t really heard before, but these guys do it fairly well.
High On Fire / Goatwhore / Primate / Lo Pan @ The Opera House, Toronto, ON, November 26, 2012
As High on Fire made their return to Toronto after a 2 year absence, Hellbound’s Renee Trotier was their to cover the return of Matt Pike, the endlessly touring Goatwhore, as well as a Brutal Truth/Mastodon collaboration. Read on for the full report…
This Small Stone showcase is tonite! (It’s also in Boston…)
You gotta give it up for Small Stone, one of the few labels out there still specializing in stoner rock on these shores. Tonite, some of their finest wares are on display at the Radio club in Somerville, MA, with names like Gozu, Lo-Pan, Roadsaw and Freedom Hawk on the bill. Mind you, a last-minute flight from Toronto to Boston will set ya back about $620…
Black Tusk – Passage through Purgatory
Questionable timing aside, this is a solid, albeit less-than-spectacular slice of Georgia sludge.
