Doom metal BLACK CAPRICORN "Cult of Blood"
So much great music hails from Italy that it can be hard for a new release to stand out from the pack. Power trio BLACK CAPRICORN has no such problem with their new album "Cult of Blood" with its stripped-down focus on fuzzy riffs and faultless rhythms. Add some exhilarating and demonic vocals to the mix, and the result must be one of the best doom releases of the year. Listen to Cult of Blood on Bandcamp:
Black Capricorn is from Sardinia, Italy with members:
- Rachela Piras - Drums
- Virginia Piras - Bass
- Fabrizio Monni - Guitars/Vocals

FREE CODES for A.J. KAUFMANN psych rock "The Wanderer"
A.J. KAUFMANN is one of the most talented (and prolific) artists in the psychedelic scene today, and his new release is "The Wanderer" which is aptly named, as A.J. has the nickname, Stoned Gypsy Wanderer. This album is a collection of demos from 2014-14 and contains a variety of psych, rock, and alt tunes. Listen to "The Wanderer" on Bandcamp and grab a code below to add it to your collection:
From the band:
A.J. knows his Rimbaud, jazz, blues and beatnik roots, and what really brings poetry and Rock N Roll together. His work is reminiscent of Tom Waits or Warren Zevon, mixed with The Doors, but also the folksiness of not a Dylan but a Guthrie – a man of the streets and not hiding behind any shades. When you hear Stoned Gypsy Wanderer, you are hearing authenticity. He was and is The Wanderer.

FREE CODES and Vinyl repress for SPLENDIDULA "Somnus" dual vocal post/sludge metal
Fuzzy remembers when SPLENDIDULA released "Somnus" last year and really enjoyed the heavy riffs and especially the band's unique mix of vocals, with female-fronted singing set at odds with screams from the guitarist. So it's good news to hear that the vinyl has just received a repress from Argonauta Records, and you can grab a code below to add the album to your Bandcamp collection. Listen to "Somnus" by Splendidula:
From the band:
Splendidula is an atmospheric sludge/doom collective from Belgium that was formed in 2008. Big riffs meet pounding beats with atmospheric passages that will lead you into a wild, heavy and psychedelic wonderland, while the bewitched chants by vocalist Kristien and the guitarist’s harsh screams create a unique vocal contrast. After releasing their self-titled debut album in 2013, their acclaimed second album 'Post Mortem' was released in 2018 by Inverse Records from Finland and the Belgian Dust & Bones Records. Following an impressive series of shows In Belgium and The Netherlands, France and Switzerland, supporting acts such as Wiegedood, Alunah, Psychonaut and Wolvennest, Splendidula inked a worldwide record deal with Italian powerhouse label Argonauta Records for the release of their third album 'Somnus' in 2021. The album was mixed by Tim De Gieter at Much Luv Studio (Amenra, Brutus, etc.) and mastered by Grammy Award winning engineer Alan Douches at West West Side Music. The album was very well received both by fans and (inter)national press, and was also released in South America later by Ruidoteka Records.

FRESNO BOB "MOTIVATIONAL DOOM" review & band interview
Fuzzy's been busy lately but I had to take a moment to tell ya about an album that I am really digging right now. "MOTIVATIONAL DOOM" is the debut release from solo band FRESNO BOB and this is a 100% high-voltage bass-only fuzz-fest. (With drums, of course.) The riffs are wild enough on their own, and they form a background for some awesome spoken word samples. The music goes so well with the samples that you might think some of these guys had returned from the dead to do a collab with Fresno Bob on this album. James Coburn, Alan Watts, Robert Crumb, and more. Check it out on Bandcamp and catch my interview below.
Follow FRESNO BOB on Bandcamp at https://fresnobob.bandcamp.com/album/motivational-doom
And of course, if you need more motivational doom in your life, please check out The Swamp Records' GUIDED MEDITATION DOOMJAZZ.
Fuzzy's interview with Fresno Bob ---
Do you choose the samples and then write a song for them, or do you write the songs first, or how do you go about recording your music?
Hi Fuzzy and thank you very much for this interview. Usually I write the song first, I start with a bass riff, then I think about the drums and finally the samples. When I'm ready to record I play the drums first, then the bass and finally I insert the samples. I’ve tried also to do the other way around but being a drummer I found this method easier for me.
You've selected such an interesting collection of samples! How did you go about choosing these?
Because I believe the strength of this album are the vocal samples of the characters, the thoughts, the words and the way they are pronounced, I spent a lot of time looking for the ones that meant something to me. Not being a singer, I wanted something i could relate to, so I improvised as a bassist and tried to add a musical outline with bass and drums, but as already mentioned, the backbone of this project are the samples. The first thing is to find the character who, in my imagination, relates well to this type of music, then search on the internet for his dialogues that deal with philosophical issues or thoughts of life. On this record, most are taken from TV talk shows from the 70s and 80s, or from small conference interviews like the tracks on David Lynch and Alan Moore.
Who might you choose for the samples in future songs?
The song I am working right now has got vocal samples taken from a crazy Dennis Hopper appearance in 1971 in an American TV show, where he was there to promote his movie The Last Movie. Other characters I would like to tribute are Warren Oates and John Sinclair. I'm a big fan of old movies, I'm interested in the American counterculture of the 60's and the different life philosophies and I love the riffs of bands like Sleep, Electric Wizard and Church of Misery so I guess that I will go on with this trip!
Anything else you would like to share about yourself and your music?
When I started this thing I was really down, life was slapping me.. but then song after song I felt better. Those quotes and riffs were somehow doing me good. If even one on this planet feels the way I did and finds comfort in listening to the record, I am happy. Motivational Doom is my tribute to all the characters in the album that in a way or another (movies, books, comics) have been part of my life since I was young. Fuzzy, thanks again for your interest and most of all thanks for promoting and supporting the dark sounds from the underground.
