Duo: Drums and 5 string bass play earth shattering crushing long tracks of glacial doom. HEAVY downtuned washes of bass with apocalyptic drums, slooowww, gutteral "demonic" vocals. Melodic tones played on high bass strings often with left fingering hand (I saw them live last week in Oakland headline with Wrekmiester Harmonies, for which they provided bass and drums for - yes, fantastic show). Beautiful gorgeous stuff, if dark in tone. Taking Swans heaviness to the next level, taking the doom genre to great heights. Altogether disturbing and hypnotic, bleak and joyful. All tracks are great, pick any (worth every minute). 1) (22:29) slow bass starts but crushing slow doom appears forthright, gutteral demonic slow voice, Swans on ludes, long epic melodic chord laden crushing 2) (10:18) enters beautifully, powerful, enters a slow mindful bass plod midway before the vocals become more forefront, almost Gregorian monophonic 3) (22:55) begins with quiet bass and nearly pleasant vocals, drums crash in after a few minutes along with fingered melody, grows complex then epic, the cookie monster doom vocs appear, midway it falls back to slowness, this one has it all 4) (10:45) big doomy ploddy, cookie monster vocals throughout | ||
