The term "stoner metal" always seemed to strike me as a bit ironic. When you're being a dirty hippie with that stuff that makes you hate America, one would at least assume you'd want something highly atmospheric and trippy to listen to, not necessarily pummeling, heavy riffage, as has become the technique typical of stoner metal these days. This year, however, Rintrah are following along the idea of making their stoner brand more psychedelic than usual, and they're executing the formula quite well.

Cool stuff. I've listened to this a few times now, nice mixture of prog, psychedelic and sludge.

Enjoying this album a lot so far. Haven't found any big discoveries lately, so this is quite a refreshing cup of tea for me.

Pretty late to the party, but this is some great stuff. More nuanced than I expected, with traces of prog amidst high-quality psychedelic stoner metal. Shades of Baroness and Mastodon, which is never a bad thing.

These guys need to release a new album already! This is right up there with the likes of Weedpecker's self-titled for my favourite stoner metal of this decade
