Thoughts
I stumbled across these guys via another forum, I'm finding them pretty damn good. They're a 4 piece from New Mexico, who play some more of that psychedelic fuzz rock that I love so much.

Some interesting and unique vocals, they have this echoey daunting feeling to them, they're pretty smooth too, hardly any gruffness about them.
Bed of Black Roses, which you can d/l below, has lumbering guitars and plenty of symbols that tend to just crash over you in waves. Luna, also d/l-able from below, is different again, with a more upbeat riff, sounds reminiscent of some of Clutch's Blast Tyrant album. They put on a great live performance too apparently. And Downtown Girl puts on a very cool range of this guys vocals.

I'm going about finding their album now, if you guys show some interest I'll come back with it hopefully.
