I could write an essay on praising this band, but put simply, Eldemur Krimm ruled. Their originality and natural songwriting skills were so unique in a sea of generic heavy/stoner rock. I feel fortunate to have see them live twice, once at the Maine Stoner Fest in Portland, circa '06. The line-up that Friday night below;
Ruler of the Raging Main
Eldemur Krimm
Valkyrie
Ogre
The Brought Low
RPG
The Atomic Bitchwax
One of the better shows I've seen to date. And, although there was some really stand out sets, especially The Brought Low & RPG....Eldemur Krimm, it's like the stars alined for me that night, that band just gave me the fucking chills they were so good. This was the first time seeing them live. Like Frank Zappa playing with Scissorfight, or something like that. I had already heard Dirigo a good bit to that point, but after that show, I was a HUGE fan. Some time later, the kind one Arz hooked me up with a link to the electronic file of Trainwreck on a Ship. Like a Knob, I never properly downloaded it, and now have no idea where that is. I'll have to try this soulseek thing.
I found a clip from a reunion show they did last summer below. I thought about driving up to Portland from Boston for this, but pussed out with kids, etc. May have to buck up if this ever happens again.
