Number 9

 

 

Number 9


We entered the Top 10 yesterday, which we did with Dopelord, and their Songs for Satan record. But now we continue with a definite bigger jump in points. Cause we jump almost eighty points to reach Number 9. Where we find an album that sat at the very top for quite a while when the first lists of votes started rolling in at the end of November. Their 2019 album came in fourth on the Stoner HiVe Top 20 Countdown of 2019. But for their new album we wrote a few words back in August, where we commemorated that earlier album, the loss of one of their bandmates and the fact that we felt a whole freaking lot listening to this new album. Yes, quite emotional. Recorded by the two remaining members, the seven tracks offer a lot of psych and prog out of the proto era. They kick things off with a track, which arrives slowly but surely, before a juggernaut break and following doom nod commences. Which quickly flows away and turns into this sailing galleon that splits through the waves and sets you up for what this album seems to be all about. Keeping you on your toes and never continuing long with one set of rules. But never for one moment does the fluent breaks and changes tire, the band seemingly effortlessly skirts along all possible pitfalls when you aim to make your album as diverse and grandiose as possible….




On Number 9 we find…
