Stereochrist (Hungary)
"Dead River Blues"
(2004 Arctic Music Group/Candlelight Records)

I know Hungary has somewhat of a scene but you don't hear of many bands coming out of there let alone a Doom/Stoner Rock style band!! Stereochrist is some awesome stuff and they've been around since only mid-2002 and were under the monicker of Super Natural at that time. This 10-track CD can easily be described as equal elements of Sabbath, Trouble, Cathedral, Orange Goblin and some of the U.K.-based Doom style bands. The vibe Stereochrist creates is still refreshing, heavy, thick and the different style of vocals makes them unique and not another cookie cutter band. I would call them an exotic style of Doom to be blunt considering their ethic background. All you Stoners out there will really enjoy this band!
