Godsleep (GRC) Stoner Rock / Heavy Rock / Psychedelic Rock aus Griechenland + Transonic Science (Köln)

Godsleep(GRC) Stoner Rock / Heavy Rock / Psychedelic Rock aus Griechenland

Formed in 2010, Godsleep have been working relentlessly since then, walking their way to entering the heavy rock pantheon.

Having been characterized as one of the most promising bands of the heavy / psychedelic rock sound, from their very beginning, the Athenian heavy rock rollercoaster based its very existence on powerful live appearances, including participations in high profile rock festivals all around Europe, and having already toured Europe twice, for the promotion of their critically acclaimed debut album „Thousand Sons of Sleep“ (Rock Freaks Records, 2015) and then later in 2018 after releasing  „Coming of Age“, Godsleep’s sophomore full length album, as well as their most mature one, to date.

Having kept their sound’s core ingredients, heavy / fuzzy guitars, thick bass lines and powerful groovy drumming, Godsleep enriched their songwriting with uniquely addictive female vocals which vary from psychedelic howls and haunting melodies to throat-ripping edgy screams.

Released via legendary Greek underground rock record label,The Lab Records, „Coming of Age“ is already rumored to be one of the most promising rock music albums, coming from the Greek territory, for a decade now. Godsleep return with their new album “Lies to Survive”, released by “Ouga Booga and the Mighty Oug” Records in April 2023.

„A killer Stoner Rock album with so much fuzz and heavy riffs!“
— Morefuzz.net

„Amie Makris, with her strong, smoky voice she manages to tear the listener.“ 
— Metal.de

„The dynamics on ‚Thousand Sons of Sleep‘ keep the listener engaged with enough variation to make things really tasty.
— Heavyplanet.net

„The reason why the record works so well is the musical chemistry which is fantastic. “Thousand Sons of Sleep” is a deep and complex record with a lot to offer.
— The Sludgelord

TRANSONIC SCIENCE

TRANSONIC SCIENCE sind seit 1997 unterwegs und damit wohl so was wie Urgesteine der hiesigen Stoner-Rock-Szene – und dabei doch keine arttypische Stonerband. Eher High Energy Rock als Heavy Psych. Unbändig, wild, laut. Gerne mit Fuzz, so lange es trotzdem knallt.

Was andere schreiben:

„Wow, gleich mit dem Opener „Solar Love“ ist den vier Kölnern ein ausgewachsener Hit gelungen. Transonic Science machen Rock, wie er sein sollte: wild, laut und auf den Punkt. Aber Transonic Science können auch ruhiger, wie dann der zweite Song „Yeah, She Said“ gleich zeigt, der erst lauernd vor sich hin wabert, bevor es dann zum mächtigen Aufbäumen kommt.“ (Visions)

„Coole Mischung aus derben Parts und psychedelischen Laid Back Passagen.“ (greenhell.de)

„Love the fuzzy tones and wild vocals! So happy to see bands like this one in Germany! This guitar tone of distortion reminds me bands from the grunge scene! Very good influences on this album, and I liked so much the balance between heavy/aggressive vocals and that more calms. IN THE SAME MUSIC, AMAZING! Favorite tracks: Days B4 U Came amd Give Him Pussy.“ (Fuzzrious)

„Was TRANSONIC SCIENCE auf ihrer CD abliefern ist bester (Stoner) Rock, der manchmal aufgrund Ergün Aktürks genialer Stimme an die legendären Kyuss erinnert. Bestechend ist, wie straight die Band auch dann klingt, wenn sich ruhigere Passagen langsam zu monotonen Gitarrenwänden steigern.“ (kultura-extra.de)
