Now here is something a little bit different in the Stoner Metal field. The Armiger are a band who blend Stoner Metal with alternative metal influences. And it makes for a great listen. Stoner Metal with real emotion.

OK so there are no weed influences of any kind which the band should be given credit for trying something different. There are some great riffs to be found here. It took me a while to like this album but it finally won me over in the end.

It's the perfect blend of 90's/00's Grunge and Alt Metal mixed with huge slabs of modern Stoner Metal riffs. The band know how to write a mean-thumping riff with great vocals to match. Check out excellent tracks such as: Money Shot, Give Me The Truth and Lose The Agony.

The Armiger are a very tight unit indeed. All playing off each other like their lives depended on it. They have written great lyrics as well that you will be singing along to after the first couple of listens. The more I think about it I can hear some distinct NOLA vibes from the band. So these guys should have something for everyone to check out.

If that doesn't persuade you - Well how about their brilliant cover of the Alice In Chains classic - Would?

It doesn't deter from the original that much but it's always great to hear a band doing a superb job of covering a classic track and The Armiger receive top marks here. Look just headover to
