Product DescriptionThis is the year in which the country of Portugal will finally score a
significant footprint on the global stoner rock map, thanks to Lisbon's
self-described "authentic rock 'n' roll disaster band" Miss Lava. Not that the quartet was born just yesterday; rather, Miss Lava has been snapping guitar strings, bashing drum skins, and tearing shins across the floorboards of European stages for half a decade. They inaugurated their recording endeavors with a self-titled, blood-red vinyl EP in 2008, and quickly followed with their debut full-length album, Blues for the Dangerous Miles, toward the end of 2009. The year 2010 witnessed the group's first international forays via two UK tours, followed in August 2011 with a show at Los Angeles' historic Whisky a Go Go and, in late 2012, the announcement of a globe-spanning deal with Detroit's Small Stone Recordings that will see the release of Miss Lava's sophomore album, Red Supergiant, in July 2013.
