Haoma – Haoma

Anville Eater Records – 22015

Doom, Heavy Psych

Rated: ***

Hey! Hey, what have we got here from Sweden? Answer? The doom duo Haoma, and they have just released their self-titled album on Anville Eater Records. These fellas know how to rock the drone right from the get-go. The first cut Stone Obelisk/99942 Apophis really caught my attention when I heard samples of that insane dude from the TV show Ancient Aliens come over the speakers. It was awesome. Their second tune Astrospliff also rocks hard but way more subtle; any cloud hanger should be able to latch onto it for sure. So far, so good. I’m really diggin' these guys. Let's see, hmm, next up is Grey Species. Wow, Grey Species is short but tripped out and scary. Ok here we go man; the final cut called Concrete Shaman. I enjoyed this one as well. The beginning of the song reminded me a bit of Weedeater, with the exception of a way different vocal styling. Overall I would give these guys the thumbs up. The album was well produced and solid...
