lloydd As I missed this recording the first time around, there was no way I was gonna pass a second time.
As mentioned by others they remind me of Sabbath. This recording out and out rocks, so fucking good, Released in 2016. Favorite track: Witches Lore.

paul rote Fantastic album from California band with the classic Maryland doom scene vibes . Favorite track: Visions.

tomE-84 obviously pretty great, just listen! Thanks for (re)releasing this awesome record. Reminds me of Ozzy and Sabbath very much but has definitely it's own style. Great Band

about

Finally! We present the Ripple edition of the legendary album by The Rare Breed. First vinyl pressing of their landmark 2016 LP,. all new art by Kyrre Bjurling

Looking for Today is the debut full-length by Los Angeles trio The Rare Breed, and as thick as the band lays it on in touting their love of Sabbathian ways — and why not; “Mountain of Dreams” takes them to near-Sheavy levels of Sab worship and they named their album after a Black Sabbath song — it’s hard to listen to songs like “The Stranger” and “Rusted Diamond” and not think of more modern, Uncle Acid-style garage doom swing. “Visions” has more of a later-Ozzy-era vibe, and “Echoes” positively gallops in the drums, but in its shuffle, closer “Witches Lore” has some of that now-tinged rhythm as well (and some gallop of its own to boot), so there’s more going on than just “we heard ‘Sweet Leaf’ and decided to start a band,” however much guitarist Oscar de la Torre‘s vocals might be derived from the work of a certain Mr. Osbourne.

Wherever it was coming from, The Rare Breed released Looking for Today back in the BeforeTime, in the long-long-ago — 2016 — and this month the record will get its post-apocalyptic reissue via Ripple Music

Only 100 of the blood splattered variants were pressed, along with black vinyl and CD's.

This album in now nearly a lost classic. Don't miss out on your chance to pick one up.

An amazing album 👍🏻 It took me a while to get into Boss Keloid’s groove. I knew intellectually that it was my kinda music but I didn’t take to Melted On The Inch like I thought I would. I think listening to lots of modern jazz limbered me up! This is really complicated prog rock with heavy ass guitars added for street cred. I’m so happy that anyone might consider this band cool. They’re fucking cool to me but music like this has been vilified in the past. All hail the new Gentle Giant! Crinklechips

A neat conceptual album; as a hardcore roleplayer, I appreciate the module and can't really separate module from album; definitely one of the albums that you want to listen to in its entirety, not just dip into. endzeitgeist

So refreshing to hear this sound; groove, great chorus transitions, and technical when it needs to be. Best find of the year so far and a band to watch. David Rothbauer
