StoneWall Noise Orchestra - "6 songs Promo"

(self released, 2005)

I'm happy I threw my dogs outdoors, filled my glass with bourbon and lit a spliff before I put this promo on loud. Why? Well, the press sheet said that this gang is made up of members of Demon Cleaner and Greenleaf. That alone is enough to catch any stoner’s attention.
If the classic phrase "Listen without distraction" applies to anything it's to music like this. Already on the first track I recognize the Swedish "Borlange" craftsmanship. These are kick ass musicians with a great deal of experience that would turn any rocker green with envy. It grooves like a motherfucker in mid-tempo with Singe's voice, warm and huge, dominating the soundscape. A great sign is that my glass of Wild Turkey is empty before the boys are halfway through this first track. I pour myself another one and feel grateful my ears are in the way, or the smile on my face would split my head in half. This, brothers and sisters, is the kind of music that you play to get a party going, to ride and to cruise to, or just to feel really good. Great melodies, riffage de luxe and "big" sound. The kind that fits perfectly for outdoor shows. Singe's voice reminds me quite a bit of a young Dave Wyndorf and one can feel an early years Monster Magnet vibe in there. When they pick up the tempo a bit I get a tremendous early Orange Goblin feeling and my foot goes straight through the floor. Not one half assed song on this promo, ladies and gentlemen.
StoneWall Noise Orchestra are currently mixing their full length effort, to be released on Daredevil Records sometime in July. But trust me... you DON'T want to wait that long. Visit their site and download the six songs that have made yours truly very exited.
