Wall – Brick By Brick
APF Records – 2024
Rock, Metal, Sludge, Doom
Rated: ***

Desert Storm, The Grand Mal, two of the other outfits that have ben built brick by brick by brothers Ryan and Elliot Cole. And Wall, that’s the project they started during that weird pandemic period a while ago. Remember that? Wall, it’s the two brothers making whatever racket they want and doing that all in the sludge and doom regions. Well, they do get help by some additional noise / guitar / mellotron on three tracks, Falling from The Edge of Nowhere, Cirrhosis, Filthy Doner Kebab on a Gut Full of Lager by Jimmy Hetherington. And on one of the two covers, they get vocals done by Dave Oglesby from Mother Corona. Two covers indeed, Nineteen by Karma To Burn and Electric Funeral by Sabbath. Both were of course present on the first two EP’s, which are collected now, as a finished structured called Brick By Brick. Which would have featured ten song if it has just been the two EP’s. But the brothers added three new tracks, the earlier mentioned Cirrhosis and Filthy Kebab On A Gut Full Of Lager. But also Masking My Contempt. A two and half minute puncher that starts off with a snippet from the American Beauty movie. Damn cool if ya ask me. And you can ready what Kyle SB wrote about their earlier EP’s here: WALL / WALL VOL.2. Nice of the brothers to have built this little castle of sludge and doom, in their very own heavy and august taste.
