Blue Heron
Everything Fades
Blue Heron expand on their unyielding desert sound with this slab of propulsive, sun-scorched riff-heaviness. 'Everything Fades' finds the band reveling in low-tuned roil and amplifier hum, churning out swerving grooves as if the atavistic, primordial spirit of the desert itself compels them. Balanced between laid back, meditative atmospherics and heavier, more aggressive lunges, these cruising jams and gritty stoner romps call to mind echoes of Kyuss, Clutch and Soundgarden, along with modern contemporaries like Valley Of The Sun and High Desert Queen.
