LOUD!FEST 5 BAND OF THE DAY: Only Beast >> redchapterjubilee May 9, 2012 at 2:13 pm

Houston rock oddballs Only Beast have a unique almost prog-ish kinda sound that is hard to describe, but the band is so magnetic to watch you become mesmerized just the same.

Imagine if Veruca Salt was reincarnated as a hard-riffing groove-oriented stoner metal band. If so, they’d only be pretenders to the Modok throne. These punk rock lifers remembered what was great about classic heavy metal and instill a new heartbeat into it, blending ‘90s alt-rock, prog rock musical alchemy and straight-on thrash.

For many punk rockers crossing 40 means it’s time to mellow out, maybe set the Les Pauls and Marshalls down and explore something, you know, a little more mature…Houston’s Chelsea Hotel says fuck that. And they mean FUCK THAT emphatically. Amps are cranked, drums are slammed, vocal chords are shredded and power chord punk rock anthems are lofted to the sky in praise to living life and surviving on your own terms.

Houston metal band Venomous Maximus straddles the line between ultra-heavy stoner rock and the punk-influenced gallop of the New Wave of British Heavy Metal. Heshers of a certain age will flip the fuck out when these days raise up the devil horns and turn up the Marshalls. These guys have played with High On Fire, Mastodon, and Fu Manchu in the last year. Come see them in a small venue before they blow up nationally.
