Slowtorch

SLOWTORCH
Peter Tomasi - vocals
Bruno Bassi - guitars
Karl Sandner - bass
Andrea Masetti - drums SLOWTORCH formed in Bolzano, Italy, in early 2004. Known as Godmachine at first, the band was renamed after a number of line-up changes. The style remained the same - loud, straight-in-the-face rock music with stoner influences, which has been compared to that of Clutch, Black Label Society and Black Sabbath. The band played support slots for various big names, including Ill Niño, Nick Oliveri’s Mondo Generator, Dutch heavyweights Toner Low and German krautrockers Colour Haze.

Allison Weiss

Komatsu

Komatsu is a fourpiece stoner formation from Eindhoven, Netherlands. Featuring members of Borehole, Repomen, The Goods, SQY. Komatsu plays a vibrant mix of stoner, rock and metal and uses a lot of samples. Take a dash of Repomen’s brutality, add a piece of GodsChosenDealer’s compelling boldness and a pinch of SQY’s determination and robustness. Run over with a bulldozer, compress, chop up, and casually weld back together. Add a daub of paint and behold the birth of a new machine: Komatsu.
