Thinker Thought Records (www.thinkerthought.com) has signed the Colorado Springs instrumental stoner-rock act, Matterhorn (www.myspace.com/matterhorn719). TTR will be releasing their 1st LP/CD/Digital Download, VOL. 1. THE WORLD BEGAN WITHOUT MAN..., on January 4, 2011.
The three men of Matterhorn (Daniel Harvey, Jeremy Grobsmith and Aaron Retka) have played together for a decade, first in the tech-violence quartet, The Great Redneck Hope, whose two full-lengths remain required listening for the genre. Now, as Matterhorn, they've condensed into a thundering instrumental three-piece, relying on low-grade musical telepathy and a collective half-century of musical experience.
Similar artists include High On Fire, Pelican, Converge, Baroness, and Russian Circles.
