So back in the late 60's/early 70's when hippies ruled the earth and you could still buy a Sunn amp for cheap, there was a band in Brooklyn called Sir Lord Baltimore. They did not fuck around when it came to rock and roll. The first band ever to be written about as "Heavy Metal" they pretty much sum up the sound of the founding wave metal. It's basically psyched out, fuzzed out, fast, distorted biker rock played by lunatics.
Instead of doing two separate posts I upped their first album "Kingdom Come" and their second S/T album. The riffage on "Hard Rain Fallin'" and the epic of "Man From Manhattan" fucking wreck it.
