It was hot as balls yesterday, and on my walk to the liquor store, I gave this a listen while smoking a joint, and it was a damn near perfect soundtrack for that. Not much else to say about it apart from it being some hard rocking and rad stoner metal that doesnt try to reinvent the wheel and that's okay. The echoes of Layne Staley in the vox were a welcome addition. 7/10

Eternal Elysium - Spiritualized D
I litened to this album twice. It grew on me a bit but didn't really impress me as being anything top-notch for the genre. I thought there were some above-average moments but mostly I thought it sounded rather typical for the "Stoner" genre. Nothing really jumped out and impressed me or left me thinking It was something unusually interesting. Some interesting riffs and jams, some good, heavy-psych, and some (like the last track) I didn't care for. Like others in the club, I definitely heard the Layne Staley/Alice in Chains influence in various spots throughout the album (not sure if that influence helped or hurt the album, though.) Not bad, not great, but a decent, listenable effort. 7/10 |

Not quite sure what's unclear; it's not that complicated. But if you have questions, fire away. We're currently doing the last album in round one, which is Rjinn's choice, Choose Your Weapon by Hiatus Kaiyote. Reviews or thoughts on that need to be in by Saturday, Sunday at the latest. We'll then be starting a whole new round from the beginning. |
