SUNDRIFTER
VISITATIONS (SMALL STONE)
"Visitations is simply a must have album and one that you will be listening to for a very long time come." (Steve Howe/outlawofthesun) Small Stone label info: "Born out of a Boston rock underground teeming with history and riffs alike, Sundrifter capture the essence of tonal weight with their Small Stone debut, Visitations.
Their second album overall behind (digital only) 2016's Not Coming Back, the nine-track long-player harnesses spaciousness and heft alike and soars with melodic vibrancy in a way most acts simply can't balance.
Shades of Soundgarden and Queens of the Stone Age appear, but they're just shades, and Sundrifter's vision of heavy is their own, someplace between grunge, doom, psychedelia and classic heavy rock."
