Hey,
As you MAY have noticed, I haven't posted for a while now....for a lot of reasons which I don't find necessary to mention. Anyway I decided to put Stoned Sun Vibrations on hiatus and concentrate my efforts to Downtuned Magazine ('n' Radio). Many of you probably know that Downtuned Mag is dedicated to the Greek heavy rock scene but since I've started Downtuned Radio too, I'm thinking of including posts about releases from all over the world. Apparently I'm going to keep a ratio but we'll see how it'll evolve.
From now on, you can find me on Downtuned Mag. And for any bands interested in reviewing/including them in radio's rotation etc., you can come in touch with me through the contact form over there. As I wrote above. I'll try to keep a ratio and at least in the beginning I'll try to "promote" mostly "smaller", more independent bands that deserve your attention.
So I want to thank each and everyone of you out there who supported, read, promoted and helped this blog. Also a big fat thanks to all the bands which helped SSV in their own way.
That's all for now folks! Thanks again! Maybe SSV will be back someday. Or maybe Downtuned will become better than SSV.... Who knows.
Be well and stay heavy!
Cheers,
Thanos
PS: Rock Trips Mixtapes will be back soon.... They'll be the only thing posted from now on. Perhaps some other personal comps too.

Enjoy!

Imaad Wasif - The Voidist (2009)



Here we have the third album of Imaad Wasif(member of Yeah Yeah Yeahs for the Show Your Bones Tour).The album is something unique and quite different from usual.There are both acoustic and full band songs recorded with Two Part Beast (also as guests played Dale Crover (Melvins) and Greg Burns (Red Sparowes).I think that it's worth a chance!

Enjoy!

Bohren & Der Club Of Gore - Sunset Mission



Well, here we have a great sample of jazz and ambient mixture. The band's members describe it as "unholy ambient mixture of slow jazz ballads, Black Sabbath doom and down tuned Autopsy sounds". Just listen it when you go to bed and you want to relax.You'll love it!

Enjoy
