Customer Reviews:
Very good..........2005-04-26
This well produced and well played blast-fest is an amazing doom/stoner record that cannot be overlooked! Thick guitar, aged but revitalized melodies and an Ozzy-with-balls whine on vocals make this some of the best Sab-inspired metal EVER... With brains and brawn (unlike most useless stoner-rock acts) this band brings an angry political/religious vibe that cuts to the heart of the matter. Death, misery and a silent cry for hope makes this record work...and I can't praise tracks like "Black Helicopters" and "strange benedictions" enough. The production and playing is top notch. This band will hopefully continue to bring new ideas and brilliance to doom and stoner metal. This record is classic in every sense of the word and needs to be hailed by more than just the few who've managed to snag it.
Great Heavy Metal album!.......2003-03-01
I would rate this 4 1/2 stars actually. If you have a thing for pure, untainted heavy metal that hasn't lost it's rock & roll edge, then you must check this album out. This isn't just another Sabbath inspired stoner band, these guys are brilliant and their songwriting and musicianship prove it. The Black Sabbath influence is everywhere, but Abdullah aren't afraid to throw in some early 80's metal influence and psychadellic elements (reminding me of Blue Cheer). So what we've got here is steroid pumped bluesy, dark and HEAVY rock n roll. If you love bands like Pentagram, The Obsessed, Pagan Altar, Diamond Head, Angelwitch, Judas Priest, Danzig, Solitude Aeturnus, St. Vitus, and newer bands like Place Of Skulls, and Spirit Caravan, you will drool over this cd. The only problem is, what's with the speed metal song at the end of the cd with the processed vocals? It definitely didn't fit on this album. But that's only one song out of 14 and every other one is a winner.
