Mr Bison Sign To Ripple Music, Record New Album and Prepare to Storm the Stage at Planet Desert Rock Weekend in Las Vegas
"Mr. Bison trample us with a lysergic array of hairy
riffs and pummeling groove. The Hendrixian fuzz echos a wicked tone as the
rhythm intensifies each and every song. " -- Bucky Brown; Doom Charts/The
Ripple Effect
Preparing to deliver on the promise of their 2018 album Holy
Oak, heavy psychedelic trio Mr Bison has signed with US purveyors of
riff-heaviness, Ripple Music, to bring the band's latest mesmerizing slab of
acid jamming to the world.
MR. BISON, formed by Matteo Barsacchi (Guitar/Vocal), Matteo
Sciocchetto (Guitar/Vocal), and Matteo D’Ignazi (Drum/Sound Effect/Vocal)
established themselves as one of the most exciting combos in the heavy psych
underground. After We’ll Be Brief and
the critically acclaimed Asteroid , their singular assault on heavy, distorted
blues couldn't help but be noticed. A
U.S.A tour soon followed then dozens of gigs in the Italian peninsula,
opening for the likes of DANKO JONES,
RED FANG, MONDO GENERATOR, KARMA TO BURN, MY SLEEPING KARMA, and many more.
Following a sold out European tour, the trio raged back with the
critically-hailed HOLY OAK, about which Bucky Brown of The Ripple Effect
raved "Holy Oak stands tall and will be considered a paramount heavy rock
release of 2018."
Now it's time for the next step. Signing to Ripple Music, the band keeps its
unusual lineup, two guitars, drums and .
. . no bass! In other hands this set up
could be a disaster, but in the capable hands of these maestros, the two
guitars together create a massive wall of sound where you won't even notice the
absence of bass. First coming out with a
12" side of vinyl for the new Ripple Music Split LP Series, "Turn to
Stone" where they share vinyl with US space rockers Spacetrucker, a
new full-length will follow in 2020.
Imagine being in an overloaded black van on the roads of the
Big South, playing nothing but early 70's legendary acts like the almighty Capt
Beyond, Orang-Utan mixed with one of the most powerful band of our days,
Motorpsycho. And that's Mr Bison. A refreshingly uplifting blast of gutsy,
70s-inspired stoner rock, played with passion and high energy that puts the
power back into the classic power-trio formula.
About the new songs, Matteo D’Ignazi says, "The new
songs are a concentration of stoner rock and psychedelic moments, dilated
atmospheres that alternate with monolithic riffs. We are proud to be part of the Ripple family,
one of the labels that has produced dozens of albums that we have always
treasured! Being part of it now is a
dream come true."
Look for "Turn to Stone" the new split series to
hit the streets early late 2019/early 2020.
And be sure to catch Mr Bison live as they hit the stage at Planet
Desert Rock Weekend in Las Vegas.
