kerosenefire It has been some years since my ears were set upon this album. In revisiting it is a great gritty southern psych-sludge behemoth. I appreciate the expression and unique style and approach. It’s like getting hit in the jaw with a hammer. Favorite track: Vir Antiquus.

Hooty Burd Righteousness! You guys killed it, love that there's a song titled about Monty. Favorite track is Spiro Agnew for its "clean guitar" parts transitioning into heavier riffs by means of hella feedback. Can't wait for more! Favorite track: Spiro Agnew.

Bucky To add to Steve's comment, which I agree with, it doesn't stop with the tag alone. Heavy southern sludge plays a part with insatiably sultry groove and hard earned melody. The album art doesn't hurt either.

Steve Rodger Nothing parts me from my hard earned cash like the tag psychedelic doom... Excellent !! Favorite track: Vir Antiquus.

rubicon of lights flowing down the macadam points of no return it's just who i am now a comfortable life filled with the white man's blues supplicant of fate, but now i refuse neither god nor man is gonna sway this course i deal my own hand from the deck of my choice chuggin' space cowboy T-minus numb and countin' seat kicked back nothing you can do about it a comfortable life let's burn it down to cinders feel the cool night air blowin' in through the windows neither god nor man is gonna sway this course i deal my own hand from the deck of my choice neither god nor man is gonna claim this soul and if hell awaits me i'll gladly go

poor old soul haunting doorways no-one sees oh, oh lord won't you let this old soul be oh, oh lord why'd you leave me here alone oh, oh lord won't you take this old soul home?

Vir Antiquus 04:46
we made the first fires on the hillsides knew mother earth and she knew us praise her with blood and empty stomachs make her an icon from the stone night hides a thousand sudden deaths dance for the sun and fertile days build walls to hide us from her eyes hymns sung to empty, angry skies

Spiro Agnew 07:07
empires fall plucked from obscurity some nothing man silent majority one tiny taste turns into a feast no turning back now, you're in this too deep constant weight how it was how it will always be some nothing man buying authority the cherry blossoms barely cover the stink takes lots of greenbacks to grease the machine it's dirty business but nothing's for free no turning back now you're in this too deep constant weight

the new gods landed on this vast and fertile earth wrapped in blankets of death and the curse of a virgin birth questioning minds and idle hands can only do the dark one's will so break your backs in sacrifice until the new gods have their fill but one amongst us brothers and sisters must cast the first stone or beg for table scraps and work fingers to bloody bone the gods of the new world they lie basking in mansions of the sun while the gods of the old world prepare for Armageddon is this a living wage? or some slaver's ill receipt? on that subject they demure not a man here among you who hasn't felt the heat but only the twisted endure factory floors sit cold and unused stripped of vital machining tools while the outsource profit margin charts they skyrocket through the roof and the working man is told to turn the other cheek while the white collar wolves of the corporate packs yeah, they feast upon the weak get so far into this that you end up powerless and the halls of the innocent are not soured by the blood of the sinners and the gods of the old world yeah they tear a new hole into this one
