Pontiak: Sun on Sun (Thrill Jockey)
I don’t know if it’s me or everyone else. I’m seeing descriptions of this as experimental rock, neo-psychedelia, and indie rock. To me, it sounds more like stoner rock, not stoner metal.
I’m listening to the title track ‘Sun on Sun’ and I’m getting a Black Sabbath (Paranoid era)/Doors ‘this is the end’/Pink Floyd ‘Dark Side of the Moon’ vibe. It’s slow, and it’s droney, but there is a song unfolding, it’s just taking it’s time. 9 minutes of time. They have a nice tripped out solo going on now, I’ll check you later.



oh yeah…distinct stoner vibe, good shit. you should check out some Dead Meadow
those guys put out some exquisitely tripped out stuff
