- the Sound Zero dudes

The Austrian sludge-trio HOME released a live recorded preview track for their first longplayer which will be released on Sound Zero Records. You can check it out and download it on the band's bandcamp page:

comehome.bandcamp.com

Better late than never, HOME's guitar player Amadeus wrote a tour report about their tour in September with their friends Sahara Surfers. Unfortunately the whole thing is written in German, so you have to consult your favorite translation software or ask a German-speaking friend to tell you what it's about, if you're not speaking German in the first place. You'll find it on the webpage of Austrian's heavy music zine Stormbringer:

Finally the new release of Innsbruck's Sahara Surfers - Sonar Pilot - is avalaible for download:

Also we'll announce some great news in the next few days regarding the new Sahara Surfers release Sonar Pilot - stay tuned!

The waiting has an end! One and a half years after Space Trip On A Paper Plane, Austrian Stoner-/Psych-Rock band Sahara Surfers released their second long player Sonar Pilot on Sound Zero Records. Get your copy here.
