Although Gas Giant can be VERY heavy, there is a very trippy, free-wheeling versatility to their sound that keeps pulling me back for more listens. I�ve heard people cite elements of Pink Floyd or The Doors in Colour Haze's sound, but I also hear elements of jazz, eastern music, and classical, not to mention some of the minimalist/trance feel of 70s era Tangerine Dream. But what I really like is the way they mix these elements into something very much their own, a personal vision that just �makes sense�.

Gas Giant's super drug drenched sounding space rock with over the top fuzzed out guitars and soulful leads that just scream blues and acid at you. Think The Animals' House of the Rising Sun crossed with something off of Hendrix's Electric Ladyland. Check it out if you like psychedelic drenched classic guitar rock. Colour Haze's style is jazz, psychedelic, bluesy and heavy... Classic influenced stoner rock - guitars and all.

Along with the expected influences from Hendrix, Kyuss, Sabbath, and Floyd, we also get a taste of darker varieties of metal, tribal stomps, and even some acoustic guitars. But first and foremost is the blistering, all-out heavy and tripping space rock from Gas Giant! Colour Haze take their rightful place at the head of the class in the world of stoner/psychedelic rock. Their past few albums have set them at the pinnacle of hard psych., not only in their native Germany, but worldwide.
