They are heavy. Heavy as fuck. Somewhat metal, somewhat doom, and very Melvins heavy as fuck, to be exact. You�re definitely in Stoner Witch territory. Loadstone is the album the Melvins never released.

The disc's lava flow of sludgy tempos and iron-alloyed guitar is straight out of the smelting pot of stoner rock, a viscous and vitriolic compound of the Melvins, Saint Vitus and vintage Black Sabbath. And yet the ethereal drone of some songs hint at a serious obsession with the mythologies of both ancient Scandinavia and the movie Heavy Metal. Lodged somewhere between rock-and-roll fantasy and technical ecstasy, Loadstone points the way toward the hidden essence of hard rock, punk and the subterranean grinding of science against magic.
