Ahhhh, what can I say about Harry Cloud that hasn't already been said?... Imagine if Kate Bush was diagnosed with schizophrenia and got heavily into drone and habitual drug use. Well thats pretty much where you are with Red Barn. After Cry Now, Cry Later and Our Love Is Bad, Red Barn is, I suspect, as accessible as Mr Cloud will ever endeavour to be, and you know what?Despite sounding like you've been tethered to a quad bike and dragged full speed, over broken electrical equipment and through a successive series of Kraftwerk, Atari Teenage Riot, Anal Cunt and Sigur Rós shows, it is just that.......

LA's Harry Cloud is at it again. His Cry Now, Cry Later EP with Cops was one of the highlights of 2013 - if you like music that slides muddily around your brain, soaking up here and picking up bits of mental debris there until what you end up with is a massive pile of amazing stuff that's half them and half your own fragmented, blasted preconceptions which I do. Now he's back, with another NYOP release on his bandcamp site and, if anything, it's an even more volatile and arresting collection, spanning as it does a bewilderingly broad spectrum......

Harry Cloud is an Experimental Sludge/Doom/Stoner Metal Artist from Midland, GA, USA What can I say about Harry Cloud. Well he is one weird truly talented individual. I originally featured him back in 2012 when he was known as Single Mothers. Since then Harry has released a wide range of different releases to impress you with or even frustrate you with as well. As Harry doesn't play to normal genre conventions. His mixture of Sludge, Doom, Stoner Metal and Shoegaze Rock can be frustrating at times. But for every weird and frustrating note Harry does pull a brilliant riff from the......

There is no more fitting release to end our depressing Love Day special. This band mentioned in their submission that this was recorded under extreme duress. Stylistically, I would put these in the "folk music made alone in a dark room category" so maybe this kid really was at the end of the line. Although, he made a record after this one, so I guess everything worked out....

Don't forget to click on pictures to see them. Don't hesitate to leave a comment of foo aggressive past. Harry Cloud has sent to me a few more shots of this weird series, kind to him and added them with pleasure... my fut not yours if you think these pictures are sick and infamous. Don't forget Harry Cloud is first a musician and that he's doing a marginal but highly creative and interesting work by his own. His last release (Red Barn) can be heard here and it's a sort of masterpiece. Harry Cloud is a musician who is far......

Harry Cloud is a doom, sludge, stoner, experimental band currently in LA, from Ga. I have previously interviewed Harry Cloud here, and if you want you can check out a review of the band I did when they were Single Mothers click here. The band formally know as Single Mothers has released a new album for 2014. The album was released the first day in 2014 with six tracks of strangeness (which is a good thing). The new album entitled "red barn" has a very familiar harry cloud/single mothers sound, while at the same time question who you are listening to. The......

The new Harry Cloud is out and this year can't be as shitty as I'm waiting it to be if there's a Cloud LP in the aural sky. Remember that Harry Cloud is the name behind last year's Single Mothers LP called Indian Pussy and now re-released under the Harry Cloud name (I've changed the cover on the post). Quite different this new one is full of gems and provides to the poor creature we are his load of celestian noise in which it's so pleasant to drown like a suffocating baby in its mother's amniotic fluid. The Melvins flavor......

Harry Cloud is an Avant-Garde/Experimental/Noise/Stoner Rock Musician from USA Now I have featured Harry's crazy blend of Experimental music before back in 2012 when he was known under by Single Mothers. He has had to change it, as an actual band exists with that name and not to cause confusion he has reverted to this name. Now let me make one thing clear. Harry has come back bigger and ever to cause confusion amongst the listener with his superb and highly addictive new release - Ocean Song. Ocean Song features Harry's unique take on Stoner Rock. Loud bursts of Ambient......

Dreadful Discs

September 12, 2012September 21, 2026

This CD is a strange brew of post-punk noise, electronics, fried country and surprisingly adept melodic pop-rock. Mr. Cloud seems proficient in all genres and cycles through the flotsam and jetsam of rock n' roll to cobble together unconventional songs that express a broad and unique range of ideas and emotions. This album shifts through some disturbing moods that leave the listener feeling dirty, degraded, disorientated... before delivering up something bouncy, joyful and affirming; sometimes all within the same song. You just might end up with a severe case of Stockholm harry cloud INDIAN PUSSY WAS RECORDED BY KITTEN ROBOT......

This is a good recording, despite having what is unquestionably one of the dumbest titles I've come across since I got this blog started (1 mean, stoopid is cool, but stupid is just stupid, yeh?). Harry Cloud lurches, crawls, and drags his audience, willing or not, through seven tracks of alternatingly atmospheric and suffocatingly direct stoner jams here, and you can bet that there's plenty of pitfalls, booby traps, and side/soundeffects that sound like the voices in yr head. I see this appealing mostly to those of you whose youths were spent in intense, focused study of the Southern Lord......
