Album Review
Your Imaginary Friend
Reviewed 2012-08-21
Fans of Sunn ((O))), Earth, Boris, Carlton Melton, Acid Mothers Temple alert: Crushing doomy epic. Guitar, bass, drums, minimal vocs if any, three epic loooong tracks that sound recorded live. Sounds like KFJC sacrificing a goat in John McLaren Park.

1) (25:33) begins very quietly, after 1:50 or so a spooky distant voice appears, then at 2:55 ultra doom appears, heavy, crushing, epic, this continues the whole way through, with smatterings of doomy distant vocalizations, sounds like KFJC
2) (25:03) absolute blissful sustain/drone, drums appear slowly, absolute perfection, a slow ritardando to end
3) (28:29) sustain starts immediately, a slow mindful drumbeat appears, soaring sustains dominate but the piece slowly builds becoming quite intense with the drums by 19 minutes, a long slow fade out
