Reviews

Maximum Rocknroll

Thanks a lot for sending us the album, but we pretty strictly cover punk, hardcore and some garage. The disc sounds good, but unfortunately it’s outside of our scope. Thanks.

Keith Rosson, Razorcake

An EP’s worth of some nicely meandering instrumental indie rock. Reminds me somewhat of a less frantic Fourth Rotor—a slow, simmering buildup to some kind of crescendo, scattered through with braces and squalls of feedback. Not sure how much of an appeal it’ll hold for Razorcake readers, but they seem fairly adept at what they’re doing. I can visualize lots of people drunkenly swaying to this stuff in a bar somewhere.

91.7FM WMSE

Really digging #milwaukee band Stock Options. Come for the instrumental Post-rock, stay for the sludge.

The Sludgelord

These guys can give any top notch Instrumental Sludge/Doom Metal Band a run for their money. These guys could be amazing touring partners for PELICAN and RUSSIAN CIRCLES.

Stock Options is a powerful opening statement from a band that surely has more coming on the horizon. 8/10
