Album Reviews
After a good ten years, the masterminds of stoner rock, TRUCKFIGHTERS, return with a brand‑new full‑length record titled ‚Masterflow‘. This album is bound to make waves in the scene, because Swedish duo Oskar “Ozo” Cedermalm and Niklas “Dango” Källgren from Örebro are back with a vengeance. Stoner rock at its best is coming at you.
