Set your brain to meltdown: come April 25th, New York label Kemado will release a rather superb-looking compilation of skull-crackingly brilliant doom-cum-psych-goes-stoner tremendousness. YES.
Featuring rare/unreleased material from the fuck-me-sideways-amazing likes of Comets On Fire, Black Mountain (pictured), Witch, Dungen and The Fucking Champs, Invaders is sure to be a must-buy for, well, me. And you, if you've any sense.
Invaders comes with liner notes by author Ian Christe, who penned Sound of the Beast: The Complete Headbanging History of Heavy Metal. Sounds FAT. The compilation is launched, kinda, at SXSW's Positively 4th Street on March 18th.
