San Francisco’s doom rock quartet ORCHID thunders their own brand of heavy fuzz like the second coming of Black Sabbath dropped through a wormhole from another dimension where the 70s are alive and well. They have an EP entitled “Through the Devil’s Doorway” under their belt and have just finished mastering their much-anticipated first full length album. This Thursday they are playing Thee Parkside in San Francisco with other local faves Anvil Chorus and My Victim. Don’t miss it!

They’re not new, but they’re new to me! I stumbled across LA’s Karma to Burn when checking out The Sword’s MySpace. Both will be in San Francisco at the beginning of October and I plan to be there!
K2B brings a little extra something to the high desert rock formula, I can’t put my finger on it but it’s like a relentless confidence that is more in your ear and less in your face. They’re currently touring Europe as their alter ego Year Long Disaster, which brings a more modern sound while still kicking major ass.
It’s a Pick of the Week two-fer! Get your rock on!
