Latin for "breath of life" and "inspiration", Spiritu [from the parched New Mexico wastelands] finds their inspiration among the most singular rock icons

nuclear threat just over the rock 'n roll horizon...
Out next:
Abdullah - "Graveyard Poetry"
For those of you out there who are wondering what to expect from the new
Abdullah may be a bit surprised...It's still heavy, powerfull, resonating,
and melodic, but also more dynamic, broader in scope and diversity. Influences range
from classic to thrash metal --Diamond Head, Tank, Holocaust, the second album of Tygers of Pantang ["Spellbound"]. These bands
have a very naural, rootsy metal sound, an honest, emotional approach without getting too hokey with shrill
vocals and outta-control guitar stuff. That's what's showing through on some tracks of "Graveyard
Poetry"!!

- Solace - "13"

sound that blends billowing rock, clenched-teeth blues and an underground punk attitude, Bongzilla fire
up thunderous mega-rock with a pronounced emphasis on the "big riff".
"Gateway" showcases a Bongzilla sound fertilized tenfold - simultaneously aggressive and mellow - with thunderous percussion, smoke-seared
vocals and infectious, fuzzed-out riffs baked to perfection. Load bongs, not guns!

is honestly a little more indie rock sounding than the aforementioned bands.

Kitchens and bathrooms take influence from a wide range of musical artists, including

how hard. Teepee's suggestion is to just sit back and enjoy the ride, because, brothers and sisters, The Wizard
fully intend to take you all the way down the 'highway to hell.' The party starts now, and The Wizard doesn't see it breaking up anytime soon. Cops or
no cops!

it justice, look no further, All Night is your band." All Night's debut CD comes out November 12th.
UNDERDOGMA

Underdogma is proud to bring you these upcoming releases:
Todd Rigione - "V612 Project"
Todd's amazing guitar playing/songwriting was the cornerstone of LA heavy-groove rockers Liquid Jesus in the
