Asteroid - III (2016)

The third album from this band from Sweden.

The band was a trio with a lineup of drums, bass, guitars and vocals.

This is the final album from this trio. 

The music on this album is melodic stoner rock. There is a lot of retro-rock on this album too. 

The vocals is good and the music is a mix of hard stoner and pretty melodic retro-rock.

There is also more than a hint of Swedish progressive rock here. Kaipa springs to mind as a reference.

There is some dissonant and atonal riffs here as the band tries to recapture the early 1970s hard rock sound. Necrodamus is a good reference in this respect.

The quality is somewhere between decent and good. 

I believe we have heard the last tone from this band. Those into melodic stoner rock should check out their three albums.

2.5 points
