Murcielago – Casualties
Self released – 2020
Rock, Hard, Stoner, Grunge, Desert
Rated: ****
Released at the end of October and jumping to the eleventh spot of the November Doom Charts, it's the four riders of Murcielago and they sound like they came straight out of the desert and rode their machines like devilish brutes. Yes, out of a filthy little hole in the ground where they secretly grew into a gigantic beast of a band. There is undoubtedly a big stonerrock edge to their hardrock and grunge sound. But there’s so much more and so much more cool. The nine tracks of their newest release Casualties have this magical kind of reverberation; it will make the walls of your house shudder, stir and shake a little. And you will feel it all and tremble along. It’s a like an earthquake on the move! I was sort of hoping Murcielago would remain the big and heavy secret of the underground; but when the sound is this amazing, there is no possible universe where that could ever happen!
