UK metal veterans Orange Goblin come out of the gate swinging on their first album in five years. “Red Tide Rising” punches with some hefty old-school force.

It was a good idea the first time, and it’s a good idea now, although four discs worth of ’70s covers does seem to be pushing things to the saturation point.
Almost all the songs are non-album and exclusive to this release, so hardcore fans will want to check things out. Most of the songs are pretty good, too.
A three-day event of heavy groovin’ bands. “Stoner Rock” being a heavy liquid amalgam of Sabbath, Soundgarden, Skynyrd, Sleep, Scientists, and ’72 (the year).
Three CD set of known, kinda known, and new kids on the stoner/heavy/doom/apres-Sabbath rocker block. For about a buck more than you’d pay for a single disc.
For those of you who are curious about all of this heavy/desert/stoner rock stuff that you’re hearing so much about these days, this is the perfect CD for you.
