Review: Eyes of Fire/Tsimpayne 'Stoned Jam' split CD-R



Great split between two (2) downtuned, heavy as sht bands from the Flowergrave crew and the other one from Cavite. Eyes of Fire contribute three (3) songs from a live show. One song sounded like it was ripped off from a Juan De La Cruz session. Groovy, Sabbathhic riffs. Too bad, you cannot decipher the vocals and it doesn't help that they don't have lyrics included. Really looking forward to a better recording from this band.

Tsimpayne is a band from Cavite who I've seen once and admittedly I was not that impressed. In this recording though, they are more justified in using the term 'stoner rock'. More groove laden riffs. Think Doomriders and Motorhead.

Good stuff from both bands. Just needs better recording and packaging. The contact info's very hard to read. Approach anyone from the FG crew and I'm sure they'll hook you up. Thanks to Selo for my copy.
