Got a proper introduction to this band last night: pouring rain outside, hanging in a garage shooting darts, drinking PBR. Great, great band. Really digging the vocals and the way they sound in the mix.

All the stuff I've heard from them is excellent. Did they sign to Relapse?

I believe so. Some of the night is a little fuzzy for some reason.
Also, their split EP with Cough is not to be missed. Both sides are heavy as shit.

That's Bog from Alabama Thunderpussy on guitar, correct? Not that into this style, his tone is amazing though. The vocals, however, are a deal breaker for me.

Saw them live, thought the vocals were the best thing they had going for them. Never heard them on record.

They are on my list: "Buy Used If You See It", along with Kadavar.

This band is one reason I started looking deeper into the whole "doom/occult" thing and although I've discovered some other good stuff (blood ceremony, the devils blood, witch mountain, christian mistress etc..) these guys (and gal) still sit at the top of the heap for pure slow heavy head cleaning satisfaction. I don't get why some people don't like the vocals either (I enjoy some vocal melody) but then again I've never been a fan of the cookie monster style approach. Anyhow looking forward to the album (a west coast tour would be nice too) but I wonder how far they can take this sound.....

These guys are nothing radically new but great nonetheless. The debut S/T album is a fine listen indeed.
