SWEAT LODGE: Tokens For Hell


16 Minutes of Top Shelf Heavy Psych

I heard Sweat Lodge on Ripple Music's free sampler released in April (reviewed here).  Once again, a free release leads to a purchase.  Since downloading "Fully Jacked" for free in March, I have purchased both 2015's "Talismana" full length album and March's "Tokens For Hell".  I instantly noted similarities to one of my favorite bands, The Well, before noticing they both come from the same city of Austin, Texas.  

How much do you want to bet that they are intentionally paying tribute to Sabbath's "Megalomania" on the first track, "Life Goes On"?


Track 2 is called "Lost The Sun":

Sweat Lodge says they are going on a "short hiatus" ,but they are/were:

Bones - Guitar
Caleb - Drums
Cody - Vocals
Shock - Bass


Sweat Lodge will appear in future playlists; in the meantime I'll be posting Stoner Rock #8 tomorrow night; it's got 19 tunes that take up 78 minutes,and goes down smooth from start to finish.
