Number 7

 

 

Number 7

We need a bit more than thirty points to get to Number 7 today. But after this spot, the jumps in points get much bigger. Huge in fact. Also huge is the amount of great releases by Ripple Music, we already mentioned that fact, but yes, the album we find on Number 7 was once again a Ripple release. Insane! And it was one of the first of the year and perhaps logically landed on the Number 1 spot of the January Doom Charts. They hail from the UK and channel that spirit you know so well from the nineties alternative scene and the grunge that was prevalent. And they sort it all out through a heavy, fuzz drenched, stoner lens. Turning it into a feral, atavistic and groove ridden stonerrock beauty. Quintessential stonerrock in fact! Packed with chunky live-wired riffs, cool clean vocals and moody psychedelics atmospheres, the album feels raw, authentic and irresistibly catchy. They balance smoke soaked heaviness with fluid hooks and bluesy melody. It's familiar yet fresh, comforting yet ferocious. A gust of wind through the stoner rock hallways, a healing, a hypnotic trip that feels instantly like home… A refuge for the beautifully damaged…
