   Choke The Palm Tree  - Stone Or Rock CD

Review
Differs from the most occurring new bands "Choke The Palm Tree" established at 2010 from Northern Germany decide to release a full Album and not a single or Ep, from the Band name leave no doubt about their music, its straight out Stoner rock or more exactly Desert rock. Starting with "Desert Rider Pt.2" an intro instrumental fuzzy distorted track that remind me more of Truckfighters, Astroqueen sounds ,"Pit" is a track song simple as good here the obsession / influences  with Kyuss late period is obvious ,lyrically "CTPT" does good and text's like (don 't get me i am insane....) fit smooth in this song ,"Doing A Blowjob Is Her Favorite Thing" goes more in to Q.o.t.s.a late period trying to make a "hit" of the record. The "Desert Rider Pt.1" "CTPT" here cut the cd in the second part ,         "BoosterForce" is a desert blast ! great performance in that part anyway but here the vocals goes into average , tracks like "Pride Abused" we listen 1000 times maybe hate it maybe love it just pay attention also "Precious Stoner" and experimental desert acoustic ending song "BrainDead" was a positive surprise show as the will not stuck in this hype of stoner rock only .The songs are nothing special seem to be classic stoner rock album anyway the changes in songs and their energy give them more of a nice feeling.
Catchy guitar driven riffs songs and punk rock attitude band and excellent production  from "Choke The Palm Tree" with  "Stone Or Rock?" debut album for fanatic desert stoners.

Bio:"by  Choke The Palm Tree"

"Choke The Palm Tree was born in Pansdorf, not far away from Luebeck, Northern Germany in spring 2010, when Fabian Kunze and Roman Riemann startet a new project which was supposed to be a stoner rock band. First there hasn’t even been either a band name, or a bass player. They startet having fun with some riffs inspired by Kyuss, Astroqueen and so on. Since they thought they didn’t need a bass, they weren’t looking for one. One day when they had a little too much of Jacky, they startet writing a list of band names they could possibly use. When they were done, they picked their name without discussing. So they kept on playing and after a few weeks they were thinking of a bass player, so their good friend Fynn Heinsen became part of Choke. After writing enough songs to play a show, they started playing concerts and had a really great resonance. Weeks later they started touring around their region, playing at bars and clubs, so they got more and more fans. Most people were amazed because their genre wasn’t that spread anymore.

In one year they had a lot of concerts, wrote over 20 songs, recorded their first album called “Stone Or Rock?” (official released on May 20th 2011) and in June they’re playing at their first festival called “Valhalla Festival” in Schleswig, Northern Germany.

Their style is somewhere between stoner rock, metal, even a bit of punk. But most of it is supposed to be stoner rock and the audience also recognizes it.

Now with their first album, they’re shooting 12 tracks their first self-produced cd through the galaxy and hope everyone’s enjoying it!
