Our Man BJ sent me this one to share with you, and now I know I should have posted this before, but It's never too late, you may ask what's this, well this is a hell of a record, very alike "Tempel" but what I found here is a grooviest sound like i never heard from CH, and is very smooth....another record to listen "in the propper state of mind"

COLOUR HAZE - TEMPEL (2006)

COLOUR HAZE is always a big hit, both on Elevated Radio and here at G.O.M.E. They're one of my favorite bands, and they've never released a bad record, yet they've continued to progress and evolve with each project. I've spent a lot of time listening to Tempel as of late, and I've decided it's my personal favorite. As far as albums go, I'm hard-pressed to name a more fluid and cohesive one. Start-to-finish, this is the perfect soundtrack for enjoying an elevated state of consciousness. Chef's selections? The whole record, folks. Don't skip a single note.

COULOR HAZE - CHOPPING MACHINE (1995)

I know the G.O.M.E. Faithfully are collectively big COLOUR HAZE fans, so I thought I'd share their 1995 debut. While the newer smooth-groovin' stuff is more typical G.O.M.E. fare, Chopping Machine gives you a glimpse into where it all started. The production is a little thin, and this is clearly the work of a band searching for their identity, but that doesn't mean it's not an enjoyable slab of forgotten rock & roll. This record actually reminds me of a slew of nameless/faceless post-grunge/would-be metal bands from the mid-90s. Chopping Machine is extremely derivative, but the fact that draws from so many styles (often on the same song) makes it an entertaining release.

COLOUR HAZE - CO2 (2000)

The G.O.M.E. Faithful seems to really dig COLOUR HAZE, so I thought I'd share this gem from 2000. While COLOUR HAZE eventually became a unique band of a class all their own, this particular record displays a very distinct KYUSS influence. While not quite up to the standards of the band's more recent efforts, CO² is a very solid desert-inspired rock album, and shows many signs of the brilliance that would come later. Highlights include "Motormind" and the epic closing title track.

Swamp Sessions Vol 1(2006)

Another major discovery brought to you by your G.O.M.E. fellows, since BJ turn me into Colour Haze world, I looked for everything of them and I stopped when I bumped with this, this is sort of the Colour Haze own “desert sessions”, fucking rare, but also brilliant, it’s more psych than their full releases, and way more experimental as well, but has that desert felling we all enjoy, long tracks, a lot of instrumental variations and those guitar licks that makes you grab your guitar immediately. A very delightful and rewarding experience.

COLOUR HAZE - PERISCOPE (1999) ***BY REQUEST***

This band was requested by Gordon, and I couldn't be more delighted. Even Matias is unfamiliar with Germany's COLOUR HAZE, so this could be a chance to turn the G.O.M.E. faithful on to some serious rock. I chose to up Periscope because it's my personal favorite, but there's a lot more where this came from. COLOUR HAZE is actually one of my favorite post-KYUSS bands, and they seem to evolve with each release. On this album, Stefan Koglek borrows from Josh Homme's KYUSS book as far as guitar tones are concerned, especially his lead tones. The standout to me is absolutely "Sun", which also happens to be my favorite COLOUR HAZE tune. The groove is irresistible, but the lead melody line will have all you G.O.M.E. axe-slingers grabbing your guitars as soon as you hear it. HIGHLY RECOMMENDED.
