Greetings Earflings...
Our vacation here is going very well.
We have deduced that your weapons systems are pitiful, your Earf monies are increasingly worthless, and what you consider a "civilization" is secretly engineered by small hairy mammals.
Our home world is overjoyed by the prospect of Earf colonization.
Your cooperation in this matter will guarantee you a full life of toiling and servitude to your new overlords. Independent thought is no longer authorized.
Have a good day!
((ommunication out
Josh + Luke + Shivzilla = ((THORLOCK))
CRITICS SAY THE DARNDEST THINGS:
"((Thorlock)) play a kind of Southbound stoner-doomly fuckyouupcore that only Bulletwolf do more drunkenly and Orange Goblin mastered on their last album, Healing through Fire." - StonerRock.com
"Sound is heavy, sludgy, and catchy enough to no doubt garner ‘em a wider audience than, say, Eyehategod could’ve ever dreamed, even with two tunes clocking in on the ugly side of eighteen minutes." - Jimmy Alvarado (Razorcake)
"Think Melvins, get stoned, think more Melvins." - Orlotan206.blogspot.com
"Think of a hyper stoned and more catchy Orange Goblin and you’ll get what Thorlock is all about. This self-titled release is saturated with enough feel good vibes, (or is that THC) distortion and psychedeladroning to keep even the most hard edged Eyehategod/High On Fire fan enthralled." - E-Metalspace
"the band showed again that they could hold their own in any scene, on any level" - Bannedpromotions.com
"There's nothing like the feeling of putting a new cd in the player and fuking loving it from the first spin." - Splattertribe.tv
((THORLOCK)) has shared the stage with many of your Earf rock and roll baddasses such as VAN STONE, COLISEUM, RUSSIAN CIRCLES, CLOUDS, SAVIOURS, YEAR LONG DISASTER, PONTIAK & GIT SOME!
Yo heeeeeeeeey! Thanks for finding me out all the way in Philly. I was stoned when I found the request. Figures right? Now I got MOOOORE stoner metal to listen to!
When Electric Wizard was not enough... ...in all seriouslness, it's sweet!
