Rated: ****

Don’t panic! Sure, the name is awesome and impossible to utter twenty times in a row… Fast or otherwise. But Trillion Ton Beryllium Ships isn’t here for you to play tongue twister. No no no, they are here to deliver intense heavy rock and extreme ruthless metal. The three hail from Lincoln, Nebraska and on their sophomore release Consensus Trance they manage to sound like a Vogon Constructor Fleet. But don’t panic! They’re not here to destroy earth, only your house and your mind in particular! For you might start to enjoy opener Beg Your Pardon, with its sludgy stoner rock rumblings and doom nod a bit too much. And following track Mystical Consumer, charming your soul with it’s bluesy and wailing guitar. It’s all too luscious and lovely. Luckily there’s the third, title-track, to make everything extremely more nasty and foul, for as soon as those guttural, ghastly distorted vocals start, and make it all sound so low and so high at the same, you will start to doubt your own existence, and feel like you are staring into an eerie inky void… Indeed, it might make a brave man weep. And there is more. Three more tracks for you to lose yourself in, and all of which will sounds as high and as low as you need. Gritty stoner and grainy doom that gets more swampy, sludgy and savage as the albums goes on. Trillion Ton Beryllium Ships delivers a trillion-ton heavy album called Consensus Trance. Low, slow, dark and twisted metal from somewhere, out there, in the vast emptiness of space, where the Trillion Ton Beryllium Ships move in conjunction to destroy mind after mind and bury them all in the darkness, from whence they came..
