The Deadseers LP River Night Sky hits hard with massive drums ala Led Zeppelin and ample evil blues riffs that carry the listener over a swamp of bass and bubbling vocals. As an audio engineer, how they managed to get such a delicious drum sound from a home recording setup truly astounds me. The band has a tightness behind the crooning guitar licks that allows the vocals to come and go, flying off like crows into the night for the next guitar lead. For any psychedelic rock, stonermetal, or sabbath fans out there this album is not one to be missed. Past the heavy surface if you dive a little deeper in, you’ll find the elaborately arpeggiated acoustic guitar ballad “Mystics” that gives a mysterious bed of harmonies for the vocals and leads to lay down in, and “Luna Guiding” which is a psychedelic jam that beckons a cheerful vibe through vibrant wahwah licks and groovy basslines. All in all this is one of the best home productions I’ve ever heard and it makes me excited to see how this band would bring it to a live show, as well as what they will cook up in the (home) studio next.
This was a hell of a fun gig. Just a taste of why Pete’s is my favorite place to play. Great beers and sandwiches too! - Looking forward to many more good nights like this one.
Noel, do you remember those sundays
When we would walk our way down by the highway
And talk until our ears fell off
About the menthol and the bruises we got from work
Down the pivot where the sidewalk ends
I was hoping you would reach out and touch my hand
With whiskey fresh on our breaths
Hoping to fall in love before we simply sobered up
What have we learned since then?
Have we learned anything?
Since before
Before
Colleen, do you remember that one dream?
Think we were smoking on a spliff when you told me
About the lion walking through those flames
Burning bright but just staring back, gently
A pendant hung from it's great mane
Something inscribed that you couldn't quite read
Behind it was a holy beating
You said there had to be a deeper meaning
What have we learned since then?
Have we learned anything?
Since before
Before

Bit the cork, then he stormed through the door
And emptied our suitcases out on the floor
Into this house, we've inherited now
That our loved ones have fled from this realm
Pucker up - to an Old English love
And spin like the hands on the grandfather clock
Sinner and saint, seem like one and the same
In the wake of those rippling graves
Don't get caught in that
Train of thought
You'll be swallowed by the lie
If you'd spend some time with me
I think I might be just fine
