lyrics

House of the Righteous

[Verse]

Behind an ancient gate
with warning inscriptions
passing sightless shapes
that scream in desperation
there lies a skyline made of fire

Abandon all hope who enter here

Vitriolic grimaces emerge from muddy waters
Vision obscured by black mist

Abandon all hope who enter here

Giant serpent creatures
slowly morphing into one
contorted faces twisted backwards

Images created in the house of the righteous

[Chorus]

Oh won’t you follow me down
Say won’t you follow me down

about

Emperors Lair Frankfurt, Germany

Stoner Doom with Psychedelic influences. Fuzzy guitar and bass, clear vocals, heavy drums and weird synhesizers. When you hear the phrase "slow heavy metal music playing", it's actually us.

The flac version of this sounds great in my truck... not a crunch, clip or boom to be heard. That, in itself, gets this major points. This is a lovely combination of early Floyd, U2 and a few San Francisco bands from the '60s with a heavy dose of Helmet tossed in. It's definitely best of breed when it comes to modern psych stuff. Even without a Hammond B3, it gets an easy A+... rick-taylor

This is colossal. I’ve been enjoying these guys for years but this album is next level. They seemed to have found their stride & it’s a biggin’. I feel that they’re heading into the Groove/Rock Genre of Clutch but still carry that epic, larger-than-life sound you’d expect from Zeppelin or later era Soundgarden. Their sound is tighter than a fish’s ass (and that’s water tight) & whatever these guys are doing; I’m loving it. And…the vocals are so, so, so good! I’m excited for their next outing. Harry Harrison

For some reason, what I previewed and the real songs was somewhat different - maybe because of the cover art? But I definitely don't regret something more spacial than expected. The recent Ocean drifting in space. frankwurst
