New Album

Bongzilla - weedsconsin

About Weedsconsin:
 …Fifth album Weedsconsin is the first full-length release in 16 years and picks up right where Amerijuanican left off. The guitars chug along at a leisurely, yet bouncy rhythm, and Muleboy’s vocals have lost none of their ferocity. It’s like listening to an angry lion having its tail stepped on, but it’s been slowed down to half the speed. It’s pretty formulaic and predictable in terms of sound and songwriting, however what this opus lacks in originality it makes up for with an enthusiasm that feels almost ironic for a band more than a little fond of getting baked. Recorded by the late John Hopkins, a man responsible for capturing some of the genre’s heaviest bands Weedsconsin is dedicated to his memory. A fitting tribute, considering how crisp this record sounds – a rarity in a genre where reverb is usually favoured above all else. ”
– Angela Davey, KERRANG!

Space Rock

This album sees more of the Madison-based trio slowly moving from noisy, venomous jams to thick, smoky grooves – often during the same song. You can almost see the smoke rising from a bong the size of the Eiffel Tower as Muleboy and his bandmates Magma and Spanky churn out the interdimensional trip that is “Space Rock.”

SUNDAE-ZILLA-FINAL

Sundae Driver

“Sundae Driver” stays true to the band's usual heavy and hypnotic cocktail, leading with a steadily menacing bassline that's crept up on by Makela's harsh vocals. The single, relative to some of the band's other discography, is slow and steady- with a focused, slightly cleaner sound.
