If anyone's into dISEMBOWELMENT or death/doom in general, some previous members are now in a band called Inverloch that is pretty awesome and basically sounds like a continuation of where they left off.

dISEMBOWLMENT are one of my favorite doom bands. Will def be checking this out. Thank you for.posting it.

Speaking of death/doom, I've really been digging Anhedonist's debut, Netherwards. Goes really well with Pallbearer, although they're straight-up doom.

The first time I read that as March Into The Sea and my head nearly exploded from the idea of a Baroness Pelican cover.

The Inverloch EP is really good. Obviously it doesn't quite touch Transcendence into the Peripheral, but it is still enjoyable. I saw them live recently, and I am 100% sure that it is one of the most heavy and despondent live shows I have ever seen. Totally draining. They played all of TitP as well as all of the new EP. It was a shame that the venue was half empty, but it didn't stop it from feeling like a very special show.

RE: Baroness, I can't wait for Yellow/Green, that song sounded fantastic.

RE: Anhedonist, Pallbearer's album is probably my album of the year at the moment, so I will be sure to check that out.

What do people here think of Wreck and Reference? They're a doom/doomgaze/drone whatever you want to call it group from the US. All of their instrumentation is digital. Initially I had written them off as needlessly pretentious, as often the effects they use sound pretty drat close to a guitar anyway, so why not just use one? but since the release of their latest album, No Youth, they have started to grow on me.

They have been pretty well received critically (so far as I can tell), so I was just wondering, am I the only one missing out on what makes these guys so special?

Those who have listened, what do you think?

Those who are interested in checking them out can download their releases for free from Bandcamp

Actually, it's called March to the Sea AND March Into the Sea. One of them is the 20-minute single version, the other is the 12-minute album version. Can't remember which is which though.

Either way, seriously hoping Baroness cover it. They won't, but a man can dream.

Yea, that's the one I was thinking of. I haven't listened to The Fire in Our Throats Will Beckon the Thaw in too long. I think it's time to go remedy that.

Old Man Gloom have made a new album. It's called "NO". If you want it soon, you'll have to go see Old Man Gloom on their tour that starts tomorrow (May 2, 2012) at TT the Bears in Boston. Otherwise you'll have to wait til the official release date: June 26th. Below is a pretty picture of the album cover. (For those in Boston here's a little tip: the May 3rd show is sold out, so if you don't have a ticket yet your best bet is the aforementioned show at TT's on the 2nd).

Super psyched for this.

If you haven't already, give Dopesmoker by Sleep a listen. Also check out the bands formed by their previous members - Surrounded by Thieves by High on Fire and Pilgrimage by Om are great examples of the sound.

My CD copy of Dopesmoker came in today. This thing is loving gorgeous. If you haven't picked up the album you really should. I'm not into collecting vinyl, but this CD had just as much love poured into it as the LPs did. The packaging has some nice embossing on the figures in the cover art and the inside of the album is a picture of the same setting but done at night. The insert has the riff chart Astrotrain posted earlier with a neat photo of the band on the reverse side.

I'm also pleased as punch with the shirt I got with it, but the poster was regrettably folded and creased due to being mailed in a small package. Still though, this was a great buy and I'd definitely recommend it to anyone who's even remotely into stoner metal.

Oh, and I guess the music's pretty good too :rolleye: It sucks that Sonic Titan never got a studio version released, but the live recording of Holy Mountain is fantastic.

The bass sounds slightly more prominent and everything sounds a bit sharper and clearer, but other than that they didn't gently caress with it too much. This one definitely strikes me as being louder though, which is always a good thing. The spacey solo at ~39 minutes in sounds incredible.

I got my copy today as well. It sounds great, a little more blown out (especially on the drums) than the 2003 version IMO. You can hear some odd details (maybe studio artifacts) on good headphones
