Thanks to Kick to kill

English doom three-piece formed in 2000.
4 tracks, more than 70 minutes.
Extreme. Slow. Hypnotic.
Absolute classic.

"Listening to this album during the day is a futile endeavour, Sub Templum is all about context. Sitting down at night with the detailed sleeves in your hands and turning the volume up is the only way to do it."

RAMESSES - Baptism of the Walking Dead - 2009
www.myspace.com/ramesses666


Download

Formed by people from Electric Wizard in 2003.
This is a very limited 3 inch mini CD released by these English dudes to promote their upcoming album, "Take the curse".
This is highly recommended!

"Bristling with malevolence, Ramesses’ crushing grooves induce a hypnotick lethargy : weighed down, beleaguered and enveloped by doom. While the percussion/guitar/bass/vokills set to work on your viscera, your head is forcibly plunged down the rabbit hole and drenched in heavy psychedelia. Mournful harmonies are the nihilistic backdrop to the ever-increasing influence of The Occult on Ramesses’ twisted menagerie of animalistic odes. Although a riff tsunami remains the centrepiece, the sound is refracted through even more circles of hell - of dirgesludge, of rhythm, of Lucifer himself. Huge and disturbing arrangements backed with sickening beats and haunting tones mark the new Ramesses sound. Stunning grim melodies, and blistering spaced out guitar solos, together with multiple vokill styles add massive depth and dynamics to the opening flower of death that is Take The Curse. Displaying now more of their eclectic traits and 70's influences, using more atmospheric samples whilst persisting with an unsettling soundtrack to your inevitable fate..."

EAGLE TWIN - The Unkindness of Crows - 2009
www.myspace.com/eagletwin


Download

Well... I just discover this yesterday.
Debut album from this American guitar/drums duo.
Heavy. Loud. Drony. Featuring good psychedelic, bluesy, stoner impressions.
You have to check this out!

"Although Eagle Twin is a very new entity, its helmsman Gentry Densley is no stranger to innovative, heavy music. Densley was the musical visionary and leader of the legendary Jazz, Prog, Rock, Metal, Hardcore group Iceburn from 1991-2001. In order to disseminate his majestic and mountainous riffs in the present day he enlisted massively behemoth skinsman Tyler Smith. The drums are not only a driving force that efficiently steam rolls over you, they conjure a repetitious mantra that is eerily infectious. Although Iceburn was primarily a instrumental force, with Eagle Twin Gentry is much more vocal and the depth of his lyrics is endless. His voice is used much like an instrument and often times creates a unique drone of its own. The riffs and music definitely have familiar reference points (Caspar Brotzmann Massaker, Earth, Sunn O))), Melvins etc.) but are crafted in a way that stands miles beyond the others."
