Little Bitch is the third album by Tito & Tarantula, released in 2000. It was the band's first album not to feature bassist Jennifer Condos, and showed a major departure from their former style.

In addition, they recruited the assistance of several female backing vocalists on most songs, instead of relying on the other band members to back up Tito Larriva's vocals. This musical element is something the band also featured on their next album, 2002's Andalucia, which featured bassist Io Perry singing backing vocals on almost every song…

Hungry Sally & Other Killer Lullabies is the second studio album by Tito & Tarantula, released in 1999. It is less known than their previous album, Tarantism, but is probably their best known work apart from that. This album was their first to feature drummer Johnny "Vatos" Hernandez, who had been hired as a percussionist shortly after the release of Tarantism, replacing Nick Vincent.

The kings of stoner/doom metal reclaim their throne on this epic comeback album that is being hailed as their strongest effort to date. Remember The Story calls on longtime FBM fans to return to the fold with songs that harken back to the band's glory days such as "Back On Earth," the riff-tastic "The Answer," the incredible title track, and a surprising Motörhead cover to close the album.

‘I, Awake’ is the new album from progressive, sludge, horror synth outfit Upcdownc. Following 17 years of producing constant heavy, instrumental, fuzzy noise this will be the band’s first album as a 3 piece.

A 7" single is coming in advance, which contains the first single, "Die, Baby, Die", as well as a cover of The Beatles' "Helter Skelter". ‘Rough Times’ finds Kadavar once again plowing into the fuzz filled musical earth that bands such as Hawkwind, Captain Beyond, and Blue Cheer have sown. The endless palate of thunderous riffs and hook laden grooves are put to expert usage by Kadavar. They have masterfully taken this infinite combination and fashioned their own uniquely heavy music.

Welcome back sweet scent of freedom. Welcome back Woodstock, you little swashbuckler – Brant Bjork has come to revive your spirit! From the opening guitar shenanigans of his first live album "Europe '16", recorded in Berlin, one can sense a reincarnation of Jimi Hendrix that heads to new spheres. This is controlled madness between trippy and doomy, smooth and sludgy. Kyuss- and Fu Manchu legend Brant Bjork delivers lush Stoner Rock with balls of steel, winged by vivid solo guitars and his creaking whiskey tinged voice. In sobriety psychedelic melodies raise to huge groove monsters. The air feels dry from the dust; the inner eye witnesses the setting sun morphing the desert sand into a glowing sea. "Europe '16" lives from exquisite Desert Rock grade A. Live and pure.
