^Nice!


Lumbar - The First and Last Days of Unwelcome

This album has been on heavy rotation for me lately. Sludgy morose doom metal at its best, it's more emotive than 100% of those singer songwriters who whine about their ex being their ex to a strummy guitar. The trio has a great back catalogue too, with Michael Schmidt of Yob, Tad Doyle of (duh) Tad, and Aaron Edge who I admittedly don't know much about. It was written based off of Edge's spinal taps and that gloom and pain hovers over the entirety of the album. It's crushing, it's dense, it's hard hitting, it's ****ing awesome.

Also shout out to Goofle for this humbly sized image from one of his journals.
