Next few posts are gonna be hometown bands, but I figured I'd start off with these dudes.
Garuda is easily one of the best bands to come out of the Dallas/Ft. Worth area (REPRESENT). Unfortunately they don't play any longer, but I had the lucky chance to see them May 1st at one of their two reunion shows (other being in Austin), and it was honestly probably the best, most solid set I've ever seen a band play. I was talking someone at the show and they were saying it's as if Garuda never stopped playing shows. The live set sounded like it was just straight from the record. So perfect for having not played since '04/'05 or something.
If you like anything hard, fast, tight, sludgey, heavy as shit, or just plain AMAZING, you should man up and do yourself a goddamn favor and download this album.
