I decided to post an old album. Sorry. I have listened to this album three times today. I listen to this more than I listen to Damaged. I love this album. I want you to love this album. Best enjoyed angry and in the winter. Make sure you are cold, too.
On a recent post I made I got a request to look out for their '09 release (due out March 17th, and I will definitely keep my eyes open for it for you guys) and I had realized that I have never listened to them despite them getting recommended to me on occasion. It reminds me of Mastodon (one of my favorite bands and one of the best metal bands out there right now) mixed with sludge and some awesome post-hardcore sounding segments. The dudes and gal (yes, there is a girl in this band, fuck yes) in the band come from the anarchocrust scene which means they have some awesome political lyrics. They also have two awesome drummers. God, as I speak I feel as thought I am listening to A Silver Mt. Zion. Now I feel like I am listening to some psychedelic rock. Now I feel like I am rocking out hard to this sludgy riff. Now I am in fucking love. EDIT: Fall in love.
These guys toured with These Arms Are Snakes to support this album. It features Brent Hinds of Mastodon to do vocals on a track and the bass riffs of Brian Cook of Botch, Russian Circles, and These Arms Are Snakes. It's some pretty good sludge. Their wiki claims them to be influenced by Pelican, Cult of Luna, Isis, and Neurosis.
