Some of the greatest sludge ever made. The Hortator's Lament collects almost everything this band ever recorded, including an LP, an EP, a couple of splits, and some unreleased stuff -- like their cover of "Also Sprach Zarathustra". Somewhere between Eyehategod and early Melvins. Essential.
Track listing:
1. (Opening Sections Of) Inter-Stellar Space
2. Gnaw
3. Charred
4. Fratricide: A Requiem
5. Survival Is the Fittest
6. Swarm
7. Tenderloin
8. Nails
9. Also Sprach Zarathustra
10. Tatterdemalion: The Gladiators' Debasement Before Cain
11. (Continuing Sections Of) Inter-Stellar Space: Love
12. Hortator's Lament
Death to everyone

ReplyDeleteTruer words have never been spoken. To be honest, I was wondering why it took you so long to post this.
It's funny you'd say that, I had written something about this initially but ended up taking that part out of the final post. Essentially, I think I've been overestimating how well-known this record is, just figuring out that a lot of people haven't heard it.
DeleteI literally just discovered this album today from some tweet, this album fucking rocks
ReplyDeleteThere used to be a live video of them on YouTube, but it magically disappeared. It was one of the most intense live performances I've seen recorded.
