One of the most tastefully curated US labels is TEE PEE RECORDS.
Time and again, they bring selected gems that put smiles on the faces of discerning rock fans.
The TEE PEE bands play timeless rock of various colors, united by an immense degree of authenticity.
It makes sense to send some of the acts on tour together, especially since several new albums are in tow.
Stage is set for THE ATOMIC BITCHWAX, QUEST FOR FIRE, NAAM, and MIRROR QUEEN.
Everyone knows THE ATOMIC BITCHWAX.
People like them.
In the mid-nineties, they threw everything cool from the 70s and psychedelic rock into a pot, added their own spice, and created a delicious brew.
The new work bears the once again extremely tasty title "The Local Fuzz" and offers a 40-minute(!) hit with 50 laid-back cool riffs!
MIRROR QUEEN also has a new work ready.
They emerged from the remnants of the New York cult heroes Kreisor, who toured several times with the veterans UFO and Uli Jon Roth.
This fit perfectly, as MIRROR QUEEN sees their roots in heroes like Hawkwind, Deep Purple, Blue Öyster Cult, and more contemporary rockers like Motorpsycho and Swervedriver.
NAAM presents a breathtakingly epic post-apocalyptic feedback riff-o-rama that sounds absolutely zeitgeisty while also authentically drawing from the very early Hawkwind, Deep Purple, Dead Meadow, and Sleep.
QUEST FOR FIRE rose from the ashes of the garage band The Deadly Snakes and the hardcore crusties Cursed in 2007 and belong to the kings of the psychedelic/classic hard rock/drone intersection. On the surface, it appears calm and ethereal, but an immense intensity lurks beneath.
