With
an established and impeccable reputation that started back in 1995, Small Stone
Records, the self proclaimed dealers in the finest in fuzz rock, continue
to churn out gold standard releases some 21 years later, not bad when you
consider the label was started with a loan of $5000 and a desire to put out
record by his friends.
The label continues to put out approximately 10 to 12 new
releases a year and many of his bands keep busy touring schedules, therefore a
band could consider them fortunate to taken under the wings of this truly great
label. One such band is Captain Crimson, a band dealing in the kind of badass blues rock that has made their peers and
fellow Swedes, Graveyard,
Witchcraft,
and Blues
Pills household names within the underground doom scene.
Formed in 2010 by vocalist Stefan Lillhager, formerly
of Blowback,
Captain Crimson draws inspiration
from the classic sounds of The Groundhogs, Blue Cheer, Jethro Tull, Cactus,
and Emerson,
Lake & Palmer, meeting heavy boogie head-on with a modern
swagger that has carried over to their latest and third album, “Remind”,
which will serve as their first for Small Stone Records.
“Remind”
will be released on October 14th, 2016 on CD, digitally and limited edition
vinyl and preorders of the record are available here. Today
at The
Sludgelord in association with our friends at Earsplit PR we are debuting
another new cut to remind you how
much you need this band in your life. Check
