Following up on the success of last year’s “Extremely
compelling debut,” (Metal Hammer) the
German quartet, Plainride, are back to help contain the menace of many a
sleepless night for scientists across the globe. With jetpacks on backs and the
discovery of alien worlds in their sights, Plainride continue to explore worlds
hitherto unknown, break new ground and assert themselves as the rising stars of
Germany’s
growing Stoner Rock scene.
“Every now and then, Cologne’s
dusty streets bear something amazing. Plainride for example. These four guys
shred out some heavy groovin’, fuzzy Stoner Rock that doesn’t fall the least
bit short to their American colleagues.”
ROCKHARD
"Ripple Music continue their superb Second Coming of
Heavy series with yet another two excellent hard rock/stoner blues bands worthy
of your attention. Butt-kicking and gnarly-assed are two phrases that come to
mind here " -- Desert Psych List
