[DID NOT ATTEND: March 22, 2025] Helmet / Effusion 35 / Slomosa
I really liked the first Helmet album. I bought betty, but I don’t remember much about it. I probably haven’t listened to them in twenty years, and I think there have been some fifteen people in the band over the years, but I’ll bet they are still heavy as anything. But I wasn’t that excited about this tour.
In Denver, War on Women opened, but not for us. We had Slomosa and Effusion 35.
Slomosa is from Bergen, Norway. They have created their own music genre, Tundra Rock. It appears to be a meld of stoner rock and power metal. I’m intrigued by them. I listened to a couple of songs and found it okay, but a little flat. They are probably great live though.
Effusion 35 is from Philly. They seem almost like a heavy country band, although their earlier stuff is even less heavy–an odd pairing with Helmet to be sure.
