Greek stoner rock/metal band Villagers of Ioannina City put out their heavy, yet folksy banger of an album Age of Aquarius out last year via Napalm Records. While stoner rock can be a bit predictable or repetitive, the group’s use of less conventional instrumentation such as bagpipes, flutes, and didgeridoo add a much needed variety and texture.
More recently, they dropped a lyric video for the song, “Father Sun.” If you were a fan of the palm desert scene during the 90’s, the tones and grooves displayed here are certainly inspired by acts in the vein of Queens of the Stone Age, yet expands on the style with even further experimentation. Check out the lyric video below.
