Our tenant terminated his contract on September 30th, running until December 31st, 2024. The Heavystoned team then decided to move back to their headquarters. The tenant needed two months to move his belongings out of the house, partly because the moving companies missed deadlines. In mid-November 2024, we ordered a contract for our house for the fiber optic network that had already been installed in 2021. The tenant used DSL. After waiting for activation since November 2024, we know why the...

We love music when it fits existing patterns, or because it fits certain patterns in our personal experiences. Now it happens that our experiences are also expectations at the same time, especially of bands that are already a brand in their own right. Like Kadavar. It is well known that the bearded and shaggy times are over, and it is also well known that this also involves a general change in thinking and being. David Bowie enjoys the highest respect because he completely reinvented himself...

During my puberty around 1980 and 1982, I looked for alternatives to my parents and I found them in numerous Heavy Metal bands, or rather in their lyrics. "Make it real" by the Scorpions, "Antisocial" and "Préfabriqué" by Trust, "Confessions" by Trance and "Live to win" by Motörhead guided me until today and will do it until the end of my life. My secret wishes were expressed not only by "Rock'n Roll Outlaw" by Rose Tattoo, but also by the song "Running free" by Iron Maiden. Paul Di'Anno's...

The picture shows my main personalities; Ripsi Rebellion, with the Punk in his head who adores no gods, no masters, heavystoned, the writer with his special meanings about music business as a form of medieval feudal labor, Nocebo, the one-man-band-project who did quite different styles of music and Egonomic, the AI-project, who first did some Melodic Death Metal. As Nocebo, I could do some instrumental stoner, Etruscan music, Café del Mar and some Postrock with my limited musical skills. I...

AI vs HS means to compare a review, done by myself as heavystoned, with an ai generated review. I had to use several steps. The first one was to choose a quite complex song upon I wrote already a short review for the daily peak at 12-26-2023. My choice was the song "Collision" by the Italian band "Mr. Bison", which you can read below.

5 years after the release of their ground-breaking album "Age of Aquarius" and a lot of touring with this album and some Greek songs in their setlist, this album still stands as a monolithic landmark in the music scene. I never get tired to listen to this album and motivate friends and other people to listen to it. Maybe it was a mistake to release such an album so early in a career of a band. The band wrote about the main philosophical problem: where are we and where are we going. And if a...

This is my absolute favorite post from one of our absolute favorite bands; Valley of the Sun at the Lake Wolfgang in Austria, one day before they destroyed the Backstage in Munich and four days before they blast off the roof at Rock im Wald 2022. I hope that the musical direction will remain as high as ever and I´m very curious how the rest of the band keep on rocking.

This picture was taken at 6.40 a.m. No joke. Just read the story behind this picture.

Quite a lot to organize for pleasing all of my personalities. The musician in me (Nocebo) was quite creative since 2020 and the journalist (Heavystoned) put it on the homepage, for that Ripsi Rebellion - the eternal punk - has something to complain about TuneCore.
