Buy "Castero - Revolutions" here for €5
FDJ Stoner metal from Ireland that very much mixes the old school and new school styles of metal then adds a bit of celtic flair too round it off.Highly enjoyable. Like Metallica meets Sabbath on the way to a Thin Lizzy gig!!Favorite track: Surrender of the Damned.
Stephen O' Connor Awesome Irish stoner that out Sabbaths Sabbath.
Bandcamp Review (Sept 2013) - "Castero are a 4 piece Heavy Rock band from Ireland, New album Revolutions released in June 2013. We have toured with bands such as Diamond Head, O/D Saxon and loads more. We are strongly influenced by bands such as Black Sabbath, Black Label Society, Down and Clutch."
The above 3 bands mentioned are huge influences on the doom/stoner community. I honesty cringe at times when I see that due to the fact that more times than none, bands more or less copy them. When I started to listen to Revolutions though, I could hear the influences but the band sets out to do their own thing and not be a copycat. Revolutions has a nice southern metal sound mixed with classic rock, a bit of the fuzzy/wah wah sound in Clutch, and the right tuning to make their guitars sing. "Too Much Sleep" has a killer solo at the end. Overall this is grade A material here.
