Review:
The
world's finest one-man instrumental whirlwind that is Judd Madden is
back bigger, louder and better than ever before with his stunning new
album – Everything in Waves.
We
are huge fans of Judd Madden at Sludgelord HQ. We have reviewed
nearly all of his releases on the blog and interviewed the great man
himself. He designed the album cover for our infamous SludgelordParalysis Vol 1 Download Compilation. So yeah we both have a great
deal of history with each other.
So
has anything changed with Judd's music on his new musical opus. In my
opinion, it has. Judd has added more layers of sonic destruction to
his music. It's a lot more louder and clearer than his previous
albums. The musical vibes have a greater sense of purpose with the
music telling a beautiful and captivating story even if there are no
vocals.
The
blurb on Bandcamp states the following: “Reality, energy,
perception, matter, cosmos. Everything is amazing and we're here to
experience it.” - This is another album from Judd that
will question your very own reality. Maybe I am getting too
philosophical with Judd's music but he does have a great talent of
making you think when listening to his music.
So
lets get down to business. If you're already a fan of Judd's music
you can expect riffs that will last a lifetime. A stirring collection
of Doom, Sludge, Post-Metal and Stoner Metal riffs that establishes
Judd as one of the finest instrumentalists within the
Doom/Sludge/Stoner Metal scene. It may sound similar to
some of his long-time fans but give it another listen and you will
start to find new ambient based sounds that Judd has never played
before especially on Redshift & Knowing, Colour & Theory,
Emission Lines and Memory Only Atoms.
The
album has it's fair share of epic tracks that run past the 9 minute
mark. So if you're a fan of epic songs with intelligence and depth to
match then this is the album for you. This is Judd's 7th
album in 4 years. I don't know how he does this but he hasn't made a
bad album yet. All of his albums are brilliant. Headover to BandCamp
and download them all now. You won't be sorry. If you're feeling
generous then you can donate a few bucks as well.
If
you're a fan of Pelican, Russian Circles. Earth, Karma To Burn and
Neurosis then Judd is going to rock your world. He is a true original
and a highly talented artist in his own right.
Everything
In Waves is truly stunning. Headover to BandCamp and download this
now. You won't be sorry.
Awesome
and Highly Recommended.
