It’s too early into 2020 to declare a record one of the best of the year, yeah? Well, if it’s not uncouth to do so then I’d like to submit the long awaited new full-length from Boston’s Eldridge Rodriguez as worthy of those kinds of accolades. It’s been five years since Eldridge Rodriguez delivered a new full-length and in that time personal conflict, as well as living in a world with a political climate that is so absolutely toxic that one is constantly gasping for air, has provided the necessary fuel for a fire that burns bright throughout Slightest of Treason. It’s an emotional sonic rollercoaster of a record and a journey that music fans of all kinds will gladly take.

If you’ve followed the trajectory of ÆGES then you’d know that they’ve become so much more than that band that featured that guy from Pelican that one time (Their debut, The Bridge, featured Pelican skinsman Larry Herweg in their ranks). And if you haven’t followed their trajectory then you know that, to put it plainly, ÆGES just rawk!

Crowbar has a new album coming out this year! Down will be celebrating 25 years since their seminal debut was released! AND we get Kirk Windstein’s first ever solo outing to boot? How are we all so lucky? And most importantly, how is Kirk Windstein so goddamn amazing to bestow this much Sludge awesomeness upon us in 2020? Those questions and more will (most likely) be answered if you read on…or, at the very least, you’ll get a pretty decent review of Dream In Motion which is out on January 24th.

Does it take away from the message when you describe something as heavy as High, Wasted Genes from Virginia’s Dead Friends as “fun”? Because it really is. Despite the pummeling riffs and the overall intensity, the five songs contained within their latest EP is definitely one helluva good time to be had by yer ears.
