| This is, imo, much more than some simple "stoner doom". judging from the songs on myspace, you have that "post" ambience which makes it join Arktika and such bands. |

"The band is still anchored in Stoner Doom, but in much the same way Halley's Comet is anchored by the Sun."

I reeeeeally need to hear this one. |
|
|
|
| I've been dying to give this a listen. But i haven't been home to check their myspace and myspace is blocked at work. Anyone have a link apart from myspace? |

| I assume there was something in between Sleestak's post and Wormy's remark that is no more... |
|
|
|
Nope. Just an impulse post because of the web addresses. Facepalm already taken care of.
Ordered the album yesterday, by the way. |
|
|
|
| Based on the review on song names on this, I am interested. Disturbance of the motherfucking coccoon. |

And today marks the day that I heard this album. It was a beautiful, beautiful day, which I will remember for ages to come.
WOW.
So I loved the review way back when and now I can appreciate it on a whole new level. LOVE the psychedelic bits, and I totally understand your last paragraph about being torn between writing about that and the crushing bits. And yes, it's mesmerizing on a Bob Ross level. I'm a "happy little Sleestak" now.
Seriously, this is one of the most wonderful things I've experienced this year. Laa de dah I'm off to fix my top list. |

This one scares me. I am neither a stoner nor a doom fan. But I do like atmo. Someone said they are like Isis...in that case I may check out a youtube or myspace player song...like the one in my post/sludge/atmo thread  |

There's hardly any need to do so considering that all their stuff can be streamed in their bandcamp. |

Never really cared for Isis so I can't comment so much on that. I see more Pink Floyd (specially Saucerful of Secrets era, including (and specially) the bass sound here) with stoner in the mix. Not so much the stuff I get from Isis most of the time. |

as a staffer, won't divulge my votes - don't want to use my vast position of incredible power to influence others' votes (specifically away from what i like, harhar) but i seem to remember some list which pretty much lays out where i went. |
