Accolades for Self Titled
From the first note you hear you know this is marvellous! This is stoner rock with doom elements in the vein of bands like Saint Vitus, The Obsessed and Crowbar. The ten tracks on this debut all have that sloughy and sucking sound of sludge, doom, stoner and southern rock at the same time. They provide us with a bunch of matchless groovy rock with psychedelic guitars, chunky drums and vocals after three bottles of Jack Daniels. This is a visit at the pub translated in nebular musical contours. The heritage of Black Label Society and Down has come to life again. And how!
There are still traces of Sixty Watt Shaman to the writing and performing, except the boogie rock has been replaced by crushing doom. You still have Soren�s distinct singing, but this time it�s over heavier music. And for hands down heavy, check out �Drinking on a Pile of Skulls.� With songs like these, it�s enough to make you forget about Seed of Decades or Reason to Live.
This CD is simply oozing of sludgey undertones and venomous doom. It's a mayhem of pyschedelic, down-tuned, crunchy guitars, chunky drums, and powerful songs.
