In Lust FOr Life Magazine 108 you can read the review of our album "Rose Of Jericho" ".
The album got 4 out of 5 stars (review in Dutch):

"Grotendeels live opgenomen in Studio Iglesias onder leiding van ex-Peter Pan Speedrock frontman Peter van Elderen en geremasterd door Pieter Kloos ijn zijn the Void Studio. Daarmee tikken de mannen van het Eindhovense Komatsu met hun nieuwe plaat Rose Of Jericho meteen twee van de belangrijkste namen van de Rockcity-sound aan. Met de eerste drie albums toerden ze de hele wereld rond en kreeg hun machinale stonermetal lof alom. Ze deelden met alle grote namen uit de stoner-scene de bühne en daarom lijken de mannen bedacht te hebben de grenzen nu eens muzikaal te gaan verleggen. Want op Rose Of Jericho hoor je veel meer atmosfeer en wordt de dreiging van eerdere platen veelal ingeruild voor een desolaat en wijds gevoel. Bij het titelnummer kun je zelfs echo’s van Morricone ontwaren. Zo’n Westernthema komt in enkele andere nummers terug, zoals bijvoorbeeld in het prachtige Blood Moon. Zo heeft het malende, gruizige geluid veel meer melodie gekregen en wordt het niet meer alleen voortgestuwd door machtige riffs. Doch, vrees niet, die zijn er ook nog volop. Sterk werk!" (René van Duijnhoven)

"Rose Of Jericho" is album of the week at Rockmuzine (NL) and La Habitacion235 (ESP). 

"Rose Of Jericho is another step in the development of Komatsu. The band knows how te broaden it’s horizon without sacrificing impact and strenght" (80/100)
Read the full review (in Dutch) here.

"Rose Of Jericho" begins a new stage in Komatsu’s career. They shall reach a lot of new minds"
Read the full review (in Spanish) here.

More reviews and points:

Our album got 10/10 points from Anfetamina & Rock (ESP) and 83/100 points from Zware Metalen (NL).

"Wow, what a record! It’s their best and most complete album"
Read the full review (in Dutch) here.

Also 14/15 points from the German website My revelations:
"The band opens a new melodic chapter, without losing the heavy progressive side. You can feel the bursting self-confidence all the time on the band’s most complete album"

  Here you can presale the album

 
  Komatsu’s powers of mass construction resurrected a rare desert flower
  in their fourth album. Light meets heavy and desolation meets beauty
  in the 9 powerful songs that make up this album. 

  "Rose of Jericho" combines a lyrical depth that resonates the current (political) rabbitholes
  with dark, groovy, warm riffs supporting rugged vocals. The sound of the album is a real
 mixture between stoner and metal, but with melodic and choral vocal lines.
 Change of tempo and rhythm, make the listener glue to the speakers until the end.
 "Rose of Jericho"will burn the ears of the beholder! 

  Early 2021 we shall release a brand new studio album. We have recorded 9
  songs just before the Covid pandemic. We are happy and proud to
  announce that  we have signed at the warm family of Heavy Psych Sounds.

Although our new record ’A new horizon’ shall be released September 7th 2018, the first reviews are coming in. Here we give you a fleeting overview:

*****Aardschok Magazine (85/100 points)**************************************************
"The sound is top-heavy and sweltering. It’s evident that the band has made a deeper development. The compositions are more refined and better crystalized".

*****Lust for Life Magazine (4/5 stars)*****************************************************
"10 songs drag you into the Komatsu universe. There is no escaping.
’A new Horizon’ will crush every metal lover!"

*****Worshipmetal.com (8/10 points)******************************************************
"Komatsu’s ’A new horizon’ is an album that deserves to be played loud and often (without any distraction!) and should be considered one of the finest stoner/sludge releases of 2018!"

*****Musicmaker.nl (3/5 stars)*************************************************************
"The hottest Dutch stoner band of this moment is five years after the debut still comfortably in the seat. The many heavy, languid sludge-elements with fine creepy leads and somethimes light stoner rock will effortlessly sustain Komatu’s sole domination in the coming period"

*****Musiczine*****************************************************************************
"A new horizon is a whirlwind, a road tripp on Route 66 or a hunted animal, but it’s especially delicious stoner/sludge music!"

*****Outlaws of the Sun********************************************************************
"This is the best album that Komatsu have released yet. A new horizon is a must-have album and Komatsu deserve all the plaudits and praise hopefully coming their way!"

*****Badblack- unicorn.de*****************************************************************
"For once I have nothing to complain about. If we could award points (which we would not do), Komatsu would get the full score from me because they absolutely blew me away with their personal stoner rock"

Komatsu is added to the line-up of Festyland, Volkel (NL). This cool festival is the official end of the festival season in Holland. A short list of bands that will play Festyland 2018: Golden Earring, Miss Montreal, the Dirty Daddies, Navarone, Mooon and many many more.

Check out the new video of the super massive mothersludgers, called ’A new horizon’, here.

The band about this:
"For ’A new horizon’ we wanted a clip that tells the story of the lyrics in a sci-fi setting. The song has a revolutionary feel. People free themselves from rules and laws and leave the madness behind on earth in search of a new world and a new horizon. The clip is made by Joost Nevels and we think he did an excellent job!"

Eindhoven Rockcity rate the album with 85/100 points and says:
"The four shows like no other that roaring pounding, subtle songwriting and melodic riffs can go hand in hand, without losing their own sound. The records sounds very Komatsu, keep it like that!". Here you can read the full review (in Dutch).

Who’s there? 

 Jelle Tommeleyn (24y), the drummer that did the  whole Garcia tour in 2014 with Komatsu, died last  night of his injuries after a collission. 

 Komatsu had a great time with Jelle on tour and
 is gratefull that we could play 32 shows with such a
 talented drummmer. We remember his as a warm 
 and funny guy.

 Our sympathy and condoleances go out to Melanie,  his parents/family, bandmembers and  friends.  
 Rest in peace sweet Jelle! 

 The latest issue of Belgian rock/metal magazine Rock Tribune
 comes with a free cd called "Nederfuzz" Some of the coolest Dutch
 stoner bands of the moment. Komatsu is on it with a brand new
 track from the upcoming album "Recipe for murder one" called
 ’Scavenger’.  Other bands that are on the fee sampler are Candybar
 Planet,  Monomyth  and Pendejo!

 Run to your local newsstand to get that magazine (and cd)  and see who’s standing with a big photo accompanying the article about the Dutch stoner scene!.

 A day after the benefit show that SeQuoYah held, Lighttown
 Fidelity managed to bring together some big names from the
 Eindhoven Rockcity scene. In café Altstadt Heretic, An Evening With
 Knives, Radar Men From The Moon, Peter Pan Speedrock and
 Candybar Planet gave support. They collected a fine amount for
 the duped Komatsu.
Of course Komatsu is very gratefull and proud to be part of such a tight  and warm scene. Thanks again to all bands, Lighttown Fidelity and all the people that came to support Komatsu! 
Here and here you can read a review and see some pics (in Dutch) 

SeQuoyah, the former band of bass player Martijn Mansvelders,  support Komatsu on a very warm and special way: Saturday january  9th 2016 they will play at the cozy Volte. In their hometown Bergeijk  they’ll act as a "real life jukebox". People can pay to hear the song  they want or like.

Experienced as they are, SQY can draw from a stock of 30 songs. The proceeds of the evening goes to Komatsu. Thanks in advance guys for this sympathetic gesture!  
More info here.

• Fortunately...still a delegate from Eindhoven Rockcity in the top 10 of the album top 100 from the regional newspaper Eindhovens Dagblad. The best albums from the south of Holland (Zuid-Oost Brabant) from 1958. With ’Manu Armata’ Komatsu is on number 10, right between albums of Doe Maar and Armand. Here you can see the top 100. 

The second studio album of Komatsu is called "Recipe for murder one".
You can see who is doin’ some stuff on our record!!
Komatsu is now searching for a record label and hope to release the album as soon as possible.  

 Komatsu is back from their European Tour 2015 with 
 Mondo Generator. The tour was rad and Komatsu would
 like to thank Nick Oliveri, Mike Pygmie, Jeff Bowman and
 Andy for a great time. Big ups for JP and Justin, without
 them this tour was not possible. 

 But next to great experiences there was a big downer: 
 In Rome Komatsu got robbed. Thieves stole their guitars.
 pedals, merchandise, laptop, camera, money and personal  stuff. Due to the help of Mondo Generator, bands and fans....  Komatsu was able to continue the tour. The band would like to thank everyone for their help, kind words and endorsements! 

Here you can read a review (in English) of the show in Dubin and here you can see an interview (in English) by Planet Mosh.  Here you can read a review (in Italian) of the show in Rome and here you can find some pics.  Here you can find pics of the show in Cambridge and here of the show in Antwerpen. Here you can find some pics of the show in Lille. On tour Mo was interviewd by Uranian Willy, you can find the interview here. 

Stay tuned for more pics, a tour report and some awesome news! 
 
 

 Next sunday starts our tour with Mondo Generator (USA) in
 our home country at Iduna, Drachten. Showtime = 19:45h.
 So be on time to say us goodbye! 
 
 During the tour we shall post photos, videos etc. on Instagram,
 Facebook and Twitter pages. So follow us there! 

 Last week we posted a contest on internet, to come up with a
 name for the doll we will taken on our tour. Thanks for all the
 entries on Facebook and Instagram. The winner is Debatsi.
 He came up, a few days before the attacks in Paris, with
 the name ’Miss Alissa’, by a song of the Eagles Of Death Metal.
 How appropriate and striking is his entry now. 

So......we name her ’Miss Alissa’, in memory of the victims and their famiies and so our thoughts (during the tour) go out to Eagles of Death Metal and White Miles. 

We hope that rock music shall overcome all! 

 So, here he is in full effect: Mathijs Bodt. 
 Mathijs is from Eindhoven Rockcity and plays bass in
 Burn the Iris. The first show with our new guitar player
 is at the start of the European Tour with Mondo Generator:

 So, come and say hi to Mathijs and wave Komatsu goodbye! 

 As a result of a recent band-meeting our guitar  player  Stephan  Quint decided to quit Komatsu. He wishes Komatsu  all the best and  likes to thank the fans and friends of  Komatsu for their  support.
 
 Komatsu would like to thank Stephan for his efforts and wishes him  the best for the future. All the upcoming shows and European Tour  with Mondo Generator will not be cancelled. A farewell-show will be  announced soon so look out for that!

 Komatsu’s been a while back in Holland.
 It’s always nice to reminisce by reading and collecting the
 many positive international reviews.
 
 To make it easier for the reader.... a summary of the best odds:

"Komatsu, a  natural quartet of the Netherlands who brought the heaviest and most exciting part of the evening”  
Rafabasa.com (SPA)

"Gig-wise, the band delivers a strong performance and prove to be mastering their art – shout out to their heavy-as-fuck bassist, who is lots of fun to watch and whose enthusiasm is contagious".
Heavy chronicles (FRA)

"Pedaling a solid, muscular brand of stoner rock that are big on catchy riffs and gruff vocals that reminds the listener of Karma To Burn, or the more straight ahead moments of Down.
They are visually energetic and start warming up the crowd nicely".
The sleeping Shaman (ENG)

"Komatsu was really great, full of joy, great songs and a tribute to the current leader of the pack: ’Hail to the King’ was dedicated to John Garcia". 
Rockstage riot rheinmain (GER)

"The room is already crowded from the first notes of Komatsu.. "We are from Holland, the Netherlands." The public responds, hangs immediately".
Lagrosseradio.com (FRA)

"A roller that moves between the stoner doom of High on Fire or the most affordable sludge of Mastodon and Kylesa. Excellent lysergic trip".
Goetia media (SPA)

"Komatsu plays a nice warming set. This dudes make a passionate impression and may be described as promising". 
Rocktribune.be (BEL)

"Tight, raw and vicious they propel their songs into the venue. Thanks to the massive riffs and the ever growing ingenious melody lines it seems that those chafing vocals are part of the Komatsu creed. Namely: to demolish every venue whole. The reception is warm for this guys".
Stonerhive (HOL)

“This quartet has a sacred potential and seem to be the new irons -de-lance scene Batavian stoner”
Psychopathia –melomania.com (FRA)

  The next show for Komatsu is Pul Fuction 2.
  At 25th February 2015 the band will play at de Pul, Uden (NL).

  Eindhoven, October 23, 2014 –
  Stoner / sludge formation KOMATSU (Eindhoven,
  NL) will support John Garcia (USA) during his
  European tour. The tour starts in Oslo (NOR) on
  November 5th 2014 and ends on December 12th
  2014 in Jena (GER). In 2013 when KOMATSU played
  at the internationally renowned festival Speedfest
  (Eindhoven, NL) none other than the legendary
  John Garcia (Vista Chino, former Kyuss, Hermano,
  Slo Burn) joined KOMATSU on stage during the  
  Slo Burn cover song ‘July’. This unique collaboration
  will now have a sequel in 2014.

Besides Komatsu the band Steak (UK) also joins John Garcia. The tour will take the bands 16,000 km through twelve European countries. In total 31 shows in 35 days. During the tour Komatsu will probably do some solo shows in France and Spain. On November 11th 2014 the tour will bring them all to the Netherlands at W2 in ’s-Hertogenbosch.

The past two years Komatsu played themselves into the spotlights, both in The Netherlands as abroad. After the release of their debut album ’Manu Armata "(2012), things went fast for the band. The international press got excited and listed them as the top of the Dutch rock scene. Acknowledged music magazines rated the album highly. Besides their own gigs, Komatsu supported great names in the rock scene like Karma To Burn, Clutch, High on Fire, Nashville Pussy and played the official after party of Queens of the Stone Age at the Effenaar (Eindhoven, NL).

After short tours in Sweden and the UK, Komatsu joined forces with British blues rockers Desert Storm on a 10” split EP ‘Nomen est Omen’ (2013). For this spilt EP Komatsu covered the Slo Burn song ‘July’. The band decided to send a copy to John Garcia and after hearing also the rest of KOMATSU’s music Garcia said: “I’m a fan!”. As mentioned before, he then joined Komatsu on stage during Speedfest where Garcia played later that day with Vista Chino. After this successful cooperation Komatsu and Garcia kept in touch. This now resulted in John Garcia asking Komatsu to join him on his 2014 European tour.

On Sunday, November 2nd, 2014, Komatsu organizes a ‘goodbye party’ in their hometown before leaving, for the John Garcia tour the next day. The band plays in Cafe Altstadt (Stratumseind 71, Eindhoven). Doors open at 16:00h.
Support act is An Evening With Knives and the entrance fee is 6 euros.

We are very proud en excited to announce that KOMATSU will support John Garcia during his European tour 2014. The tour starts november 5th and ends december 12th.
More details and info soon dudes!

   Marco Gelissen will replace guitarist Stephan Quint for
   the time being. Marco played with Liftid for 12 years and
   for 2 years with Machego. He played @ Pinkpop so he is
   not afraid to take the stage. Currently he is starting a new
   band but luckily he found time to help out KOMATSU.

   The first KOMATSU show with Marco will be:
   saturday 14th September, JKC Nirwana Dronten.

Guitarist Stephan Quint is in hospital due to serious heart problems. Currently it is unclear how long he will be out of circulation. Stephan will be temporarely replaced by Marco Gelissen (ex-Liftid), so most of the planned shows can and will go on!

KOMATSU’s thoughts go out to Stephan and wishes him and his family much strength!

 We had a blast @ Schollenpop, Scheveningen. Perfect  
 weather, sexy crowd and amazing view from stage!

You can order the magazine (in Dutch) here (3,95 euro)

Here you can read the translation of the German review on Powermetal.de:

KOMATSU - Steamroll-Machine
The band makes the impression, that they are acting very professional and they are full of joy. With Komatsu, another supergroup has formed and bring us their Bulldoze-Rock. The four from Eindhoven brought us an EP with six fulminant Metalstonerhardrock-Songs. Raising your first, headbanging and also jumping to this songs is absolutely legitimate. ’Manu Armata’ is their full-length debut album. 

A good production, musically and technically high-classed and a very good and mature singer which fits to the thundering drumming and the very offensive Bass. Two sludge-guitars that are away from being boring fulfill this „lesson“ of better Hardstonerrock.
On ’Blackwater’ two or three riffs and a few small fast changes are enough to finish something exciting. ’Beat you to the punch‘ has the potential to get stuck in your head. While listening to the record, the consumer will notice the high quote of speedmetal, like in songs like ’Kamikaze’ or ’Motherload’, which even makes the album more exciting. Also Punk, Hard Classic Rock and the „good old dusty rosty Doom“ are found on this record. The impression that KOMATSU aren‘t copying themselves throughout the album even doesn’t change after listening to it‘s entirety for a few times.

This should be the breakthrough for this quartett , which hopefully show their wide and exciting repertoire on a lot of summer-festivals or Clubs in germany in 2013"

Interview (in Dutch) with Mo & Martijn from Komatsu in the Belgium metal-magazine Rocktribune (march 2013):
