killmidred - demo


Another early 90's time period piece when metal was looked down upon and alternative was all the rage and people still wanted to be heavy but without the cheese of REAL metal and would try to adpot both heavy & alternative.... i know i've seen and or played with these guys back in the day but can't remember a thing about them, but then again, i can't remember last week....

killmildred - life to distracted

SmogMonster - Demo

Bio
SmogMonster is the spawn of great BASS heavy bands of the past , such as Flipper, Deep Purple, and yes even Sabbath, and more recent extreme bass-based bands, such as GodHeadSilo, EnemyMine, Death From Above and Lightning Bolt. .. The band is named after one of the finest Godzilla films of all times - - the environmentally conscious semi-musical/semi-animated early 70’s "Godzilla vs. The Smogmonster" - "history shows us again and again, how nature points out the folly of men ...." .. Armed with stacks of old and semi-reliable Ampeg, Peavey, Kustom and Guild amplifiers and a handful of old Fender basses - SmogMonster produces a big low-end throb that relies on extreme volume and lots of overdrive to make two basses and drums fill in all the sonic spaces. .. SmogMonster is Krishna on fuzz bass, Dave on base bass, Rick on drums and Nino on vocals. .. Also - if any of your are guitar weenies - check out Krishna’s guitar and bass restoration service - "any guitar, any color": .. http://www.bostonguitarrepair.com
