The Lords Of Altamont, Forever Loaded (Heavy Psych Sounds 2026)
The Lords Of Altamont take another lap with their ninth album, Forever Loaded.
Psychedelic garage rockers The Lords Of Altamont are from Los Angeles. They have been around for coming up on three decades, releasing their first record, To Hell With The Lords, in 2002. You can always rely on their music for a night out drinking because it goes good with both whiskey and beer. The band is Dani Sindaco (guitar, vocals), Jake Cavaliere (organ, vocals), Barry Van Esbroek (drums, vocals), and Rob Zimmermann (bass, vocals).
“Got A Hold On Me” thumps the evening into life with a punchy riff and a fisting attitude. It is a great way to start things off. “What’s Your Bag” adds some sweet keys and asks just the right musical questions. “Devil Rides” gives in to the urge with a crooked smile and a tasty guitar solo, “Rusty Guns” has a creepy muddy echo in it, and “Procession For A Gorehound” got me to thinking about the Amboy Dukes. In fact, there is a real Detroit feel to the music from this L. A. band, at least on this album.
Side two keeps the foot the gas. “Get Out Of My Head” rolls out a bass line and feisty percussion tease to draw you in. “Got You On The Run” is a short fast knee-capper, “Disconnection” has us slowing down a touch to think about what we have done, and “I Got Your Number” is a one night stand between rockabilly and punk. The end comes with “Twisted Black,” a seven-minute incantation from an excommunicated magus. Even at this length, there are not really separate movements as we might expect, except for the chaotic crescendo and ultimate release at the end. This is a good album. I’ll put it on my shelf next to the Murder City Devils. Recommended.

Complete List Of Mike Patton Bands And Musical Projects
Mike Patton’s career began in Eureka, California, where isolation, record collecting, film obsession, and restless curiosity helped shape one of the most unpredictable voices in modern music. Born Michael Allan Patton on January 27, 1968, Patton grew up in a secular household with a mother who was a social worker and a father who was a physical education teacher. As a student at Eureka High School, he met bassist Trevor Dunn and later guitarist Trey Spruance through music theory classes and jazz ensembles. Those friendships became the foundation of Mr. Bungle, the experimental band formed in 1984 that gave Patton
