Tee Pee Records - 2nd annual Manifest Destiny
 |
The Echoplex, Los Angeles |
If I were in SoCal, I'd go to Manifest Destiny. The festival's second annual installment is this Sunday 3pm at The Echoplex in Los Angeles. Manifest Destiny "was created by Tee Pee Records founder Tony Presedo to celebrate all things Californian and all forms of heavy music, unrestricted by standard music classifications." "All things Californian" is a tall claim (it'd better include burritos), but celebration is indeed in order. America's answer to the UK's Rise Above Records, Tee Pee specializes in psych/stoner/sludge/doom - basically anything that's heavy and wears bellbottoms. The lineup includes Swedish retro metallers Witchcraft, American retro metallers Witch (whom we reviewed here), the mighty Earthless (whose Mario Rubalcaba is filling in for J Mascis on drums in Witch), the blacklit sounds of The Assemble Head in Sunburst Sound, the My Bloody Valentine-gone-stoner stylings of The Warlocks, and much more.

And Graveyard, mustn't forget those rockin' Swedish lads!
Yeah, man, that upcoming Night Horse record looks to be good, too. Tee Pee just does not miss.
This is the wrong weekend for me to be on the east coast. Dang.
Uhhh... I've got a full plate of upcoming shows. I'm going to have to pass.
