Long-running Vancouver, BC Heavy Rock/Sludge band Waingro (perhaps named for one of the antagonists of the classic 1995 crime movie Heat?) have released their latest album Sports!

In fact any hints of the sound are very few and far between on their fifth album Endling (Rise Records), with the influence used sparingly.
