Oh damn. I forgot about this one and posted a new one. Please forgive me for that, and ignore it entirely, I write in this one what I did in the other one.


what is playing in my ear right now: YouTube - Ahab - Old Thunder

Now, I'm not usually a fan of doom metal, but Ahab is the exception to the rule. They have all the power and heaviness a doom band should have, but are not plagued by poor vocals or cheesy lyrics like most other bands in the genre are. To my knowledge they have only released one studio album and you can probably guess what the songs are all based around: Captain Ahab and Moby ****.

The music and lyrics fit perfectly together, as the music gives me the image of being assaulted by wave after salty wave, and being battered by the unforgiving ocean. I feel a certain depth to their music. Their vocals are also very powerful and sound as if they are being bellowed by Moby **** himself from the bottom of the ocean.
