Accolades for
Ode to Io (Deluxe Edition)
Many bands have tried to imitate the re-arrival of cosmic heaviness pioneered by Kyuss and Fu Manchu, but Lowrider is the first band after these legends to make the new sound completely their own. Somehow, they have assimilated and then transcended the massive riff-rock of their forebears, becoming the first and ultimate expression of the new generation of stoner/groove.
Riff rock, Desert influenced full of heavy chugging riffs and tuned down Sabbath riffs. Long time Kyuss fans- 'Lowrider take off right where they left off with their fuzzed out guitars and doom grooves that remind me a little of Monster Magnet, but mostly of the raw energy that Kyuss had going for them.
