Spiritual Beggars – Ad Astra

Swedish hard rock/stoner metal band formed in 1993 by Michael Amott, a side project after Michael left the British death metal band Carcass. The band provided an outlet for Amott’s retro hard rock impulses, and in the process became one of the stoner metal movement’s best-kept secrets.
The band had previously stuck to a contemporary stoner palette somewhere between the thundering Kyuss and chaotic Corrosion of Conformity, but everything from the Doors (“Per Aspera Ad Astra”) to Deep Purple (“Wonderful World” and others) gets folded into the retro metal mix on this release.
