Move over Sabbath

"Another great release from TMC. Recorded and released in 2004, this sounds straight out of prime era Black Sabbath but possibly even better. Retro doom. Just get it and thank me later."

Vintage 70's Sound, Doom, Blues

"Nostalgic, vintage, doom rock. Hard to believe this album was recorded in 2003, and not 1963 (in a good way). The Animals meets Black Sabbath. Very similar to Pentagram's "First Daze Here (1971-1975)" recordings. Very warm, bluesy metal. Sounds like Zeppelin or the Birds, and sometimes like the Beatles in parts. The track, "No Angel, No Demon" is worth the price of the CD.



Good instrumentation. Great continuity. I've had this CD playing non-stop for about 3 days, now. It has a mellow, English vibe, and not much attitude or agression to speak of. Still, this album is superior to all the nuMetal on MTV and the rap-rock on commercial rock radio stations, and most of what's on the underground rock radio stations, too! Joe Bob says, "Check it out!"



Several very catchy songs, but not as many as hoped (so only 4 stars). We'll see what the band's next album is like. Get Pentagram's "First Daze" album first, if you don't already yet have it.

Essential!
