Sand is Pyramido's first full-length and a damn enjoyable one at that. I'll mention Sleep and Electric Wizard now, so the obligatory band-referencing is done and dealt with. Remains nothing but rhythmically entrancing, blazing and scorching, marijuana-driven (clichés 2, Lucas 0) stoooooooner. It is sometimes a little difficult to tell where each song ends and a new one begins, but seriously, who cares? A good sense of combining monotony with dynamics (how odd that may sound) is all you need, and whether that ends in five ten-minute tracks or one fifty-minute track, I couldn't care less. And if I could, I would. Whether you're listening to "Calculating Doom", "Cutthroat" or "2 Years 8 Months 21 Days", the stonerriffic and desperate tortured screaming are there for your masochistic listening pleasure.
It may not be a surprising listen at first, but it's pretty damn addictive. You will find this doing its hazy rounds in your CD-player round more often than you initially expected. A great release of completely unpretentious, focused and determined, dry as fuck, catchy metal. Fuck yes. Mr. Elephant will trample your soul.
