Comment:

Almost instrumental Stoner practicing the sacro saint mighty power riff.. No real subtlety, but it's the perfect music for the listener who want to be overwhelmed with heavy and effective riffs; it's basic, it has no pretensions, but it's damn good.

Comment:

A mix between Seventies Horror/Occult films, Psychedelic Rock and classic Doom. In Chapter of the esoteric and cosmic delusions, there isn't more evocative.I wouldn't be surprised if their next album was signed on Rise Above Records. A giant is born. Maybe the album of the year with "Capricorn" (Orchid)...

Slow Black Metal sometimes really near to Doom Metal. Powerful, mystical, hypnotic... " Buy it, listen to it, absorb it, be absorbed by it. Masterful.". An explosion of genius, a must have.

Amaaaazing chinese band with the particularity to use matouqin (Mongolian violin) and overtone singing (singing technique to produce two sounds simultaneously). Atmospheres like no other, a disturbing, religious and indescribable music.Simply unique!
