Novadriver�s Deeper High sums up just about everything I like about stoner rock. It�s straightforward, fuzzed out brilliance. I got whiffs of The Stooges, AC/DC, Dozer, Hawkwind, and The Hellacopters in Novadriver�s 4-4 rock. Good rock is timeless and Novadriver�s execution is damn near flawless, whether busting out some cowbell or slowing things down with the cosmic stoner jam. Deeper High is a benchmark for riffs �n� hooks fuzz rock.

Deeper High is a much darker record than its precursor, but still builds on the foundations lain by Void: heavy spacey guitar driven psychedelic rock, the way only the Motor City can produce; the Stooges writing Sabbath songs, Deep Purple trying on the MC5�s shoes, Pink Floyd finally acting like they have some balls� Briefly put, Miers� voice has never sounded stronger or more menacing, Reedy�s guitars have never bared their teeth more ferociously, nor have Anders and Miller ever been a tighter and ballsier rhythm section. Novadriver look to be back in the saddle, ahem� bucket seat and have their engine in a full, howling rev�

With the relentless trudge of the best stoner rock coursing through their rhythm section, Novadriver radiate Hawkwind-like space metal and '70s arena-rock bombast. ... vicious, wah-torn guitar solos add appropriate violence, raining acid from the skies.
