StonerRock.com
All things heavy and down tuned. Where the EQs on guitars look like frowns instead of smiles, drowning all those who listen in the mids and fuzz.

Subhumans/Citizen Fish
These are my (thats me Aaron) two favorite bands of all time. They changed my life on so many levels. Subhumans are the reason I started playing punk music, and Citizen Fish's unbelievable song writing is what has inspired much of this band's musical personality. People who say we sound like Neurosis are missing the point. I'd like to think at times we sound like a Subhumans record played slow.

Grayceon
Our sister band featuring Jackie Perez Gratz, and also featuring Max and Zack of San Francisco's, Walken. A metal band that is so sad, romantic, and epic all at once. Unbelievable. Grayceon is the future. Grayceon is church.

Matt Bayles
The brilliant, highly sought after producer of such incredible records and bands such as Mastodon, ISIS, Botch, Minus The Bear, Pearl Jam, Burnt By The Sun, Helms Alee, Kiss it Goodbye, and hundreds of others. He of course, produced our latest record, The Ichthyologist. Few records sound as good as those where Matt was behind the knobs.

The End Records
The label that put out Metridium Fields and the Sutter's Fort 7". Make sure to check out other bands on the label like Agalloch, Crisis, Made out of Babies, Braveyoung, Cable, and Nadja.

Translation Loss
Giant Squid's cozy new home in Philadelphia. A great label with amazing dudes running it. An official US and UK label release of The Ichthyologist will be the first thing we do with these guys. More awesome things to come in the future.

Vega VInyl
A killer upstart label out of NY will be giving The Ichthyologist the royal, plastic treatment, releasing it in a limited edition, gate-fold, colored vinyl, scratch and sniff, double LP edition. Finally, more squid on wax.
