Earth aren't a doom band, well certainly not now.
Earth 2 is a classic drone metal album, obviously the main lynchpin of the genre.
Hex and the new album are both excellent, but they're very far removed from the long drone tracks on Earth 2. It's a very different sound, but still interesting and fresh.
Next month I'm seeing them live, with SIR RICHARD BISHOP of Sun City Girls supporting. I cannot f'ucking wait!
