As has (rightfully) already been said elsewhere, this band and album are "absolute fire." Despite the doom-gloom cover art, this type of rock music is a positive force. Especially without vocals, which for me is a bonus.

OMG, late to the party but this is some of the best occult infused doom stoner tackle I've ever heard. Reference points include Sabbath (obvs), especially with the Ozzy-esque vocals but there's also the melodiousness of early Heep mixing with a more contemporary occult rock sound. It starts in the 70's and makes it to the present day. The riffs are huge but it's their way with a hook that elevates this from your average doom/stoner fare. Very wonderful indeed!

Strange, Strange Times
by The Ugly Kings
Combining crooned murder ballads with raw, angsty hard rock hooks, Melbourne's The Ugly Kings are a wrecking crew well worth watching.

The surprisingly comical new video from roaring metal group Red Fang is a tip of the hat to the original “Predator.”
