The band takes its time building songs, one
musical layer at a time, piecing tones together like puzzle pieces with the
vocals being the perfect final fit. This
band demands your time and attention to bond with and rightfully so, the songs
deserve it. Great, great record. Seek it out.

The Review:
Gotta admit, never heard of this band. Not much of a stoner rock aficionado although
I do enjoy certain bands of the genre as well as a bit of the ole mean green
itself on occasion. Have to come clean,
I enjoyed Throttlerod’s
“Turncoat” which as I understand it,
is the first record the band has put out in seven years since their previous
release “Pig Charmer.”
Southern fried weed N roll by way of Richmond
Virginia , South Carolina Seattle
Throttlerod’s sound is eclectic but
heavy without having to try, the sign of a band that’s firing on all cylinders.
The band takes its time building songs, one musical layer at a time, piecing
tones together like puzzle pieces with the vocals being the perfect final
fit. Don’t expect Electric Wizard or Sleep
with Throttlerod. This band demands your time and attention to
bond with and rightfully so, the songs deserve it. Great, great record. Seek it out.
