Shooting Guns are hard at work fortifying the heavy end of the psychedelic spectrum. Hailing from the subarctic wasteland of Saskatoon, SK, they haunt the foggy moor between Sabbath-styled doom riffery and heavy pulse-riding kraut-rock. Centered around elephantine riffs, these delay-soaked songs rumble and hiss with analog synth-conjured monstrosities which surge to devour frequency ranges beyond the upper and lower ranges available to even the heaviest doom outfits.

This pentacle of demon conjurers formed in 2008, veteran collaborators in Saskatoon's prolific music scene, each with over a decade of touring and music production experience.  The band's debut LP, Born To Deal In Magic: 1952-1976, was nominated for the Polaris Music Prize in 2012 and their sophomore LP, Brotherhood of the Ram, was released in October 2013.  The band is pleasantly surprised to find their spectacle is rapidly attracting a cult of barbarian metal-heads, indie hipsters, Neanderthals, and nerds.

the high score is the chip hop collage side-quest of vov abraxas.

the spooks of hazard is a band that switches instruments during songs and makes a lot of stuff up while they're going along.
