Rated: *****

The July Doom Charts are out! And on the eight spot we find the new release by Gods & Punks! And we got to write the little blurb for it. The Sounds Of The Universe is the final release, but first chapter, of the four-part adventure that the Brazil rockers called their ‘Voyage Series’. And on it the five Gods & Punks turn up the space rock, the psychedelic touches but still retain that proggy and doomy feeling. Do you need to be familiar with the stuff that came before? Hell no, cause it’s the first chapter and it will stand on its own no matter what. Will it entice you to go back (or forth) towards those other releases? Hell yes, cause it is one damn majestic journey into all of the farthest reaches of the heavy stuff we all love so dearly! And even though they were always in tune with their psych and prog side of the heavy stuff, this one feels even more like a prog rock magnus opus than the records that came before. It surfs across tension arcs and wide expanses like quicksilver, it gives you some king hell seductive melodies and never forgets to pack a punch and continues to deal out riffs galore. An album to take with you wherever you may go through the universe…
