8/14/23.

Here's another Bay Area band - Oakland, California, specifically. We posted about Half Stack 5 years ago. Plenty of time for me to forget the band or the fact that I was quite smitten by them.

I previously mentioned a Australian dolewave feel - I compared them to Dick Diver - and that still holds. But they also fit right in with fellow Oaklanders Rob I. Miller, Blues Lawyer or even Dick Stusso.

This release is being handled by both Forged Artifacts (Minneapolis, Minnesota) and Royal Oakie (Oakland, California).

Summer sure is great ain’t it? Yes, granted you do have to wipe sweat out of your eyes constantly; and true, being outside for more than 30 seconds does often feel detrimental to your overall health. But, the carefree joy the season regularly brings really is unparalleled among the Big Four seasons.

Unfortunately, the end of summer is fast-approaching, and though global warming makes it so fall…

8/9/18.

Oakland, California is one of the best sources of independent rock in the United States.  There, I said it.  Check the history of this blog (I haven’t) and I’m pretty sure we’d be able to put an amazing compilation together.

Half Stack is one of the 1/2 dozen bands on Processional Cross.  Half Stack definitely have an Aussie vibe crossed with mid 80s indie stalwarts like Meat Puppets or Camper Van Beethoven. 

Click through to other bands - Ziplock and Hobby Limit - and you’ll notice a “slacker” (Pavement),  or “dolewave” (Dick Diver) sound.
