Review:
Doom Metal, Stoner
Metal and Sweden. An invitation to check out another excellent band
from Sweden and what a band they are folks!!!
Mammoth Storm play a
brutal epic blend of Doom, Drone and Stoner Metal to pound your
senses and soul to. This EP is currently tearing the Stoner/Doom
apart with it's breathtaking blend of epic Doom/Stoner Metal riffs.
Rite Of Ascension is a
masterclass of epic Doom/Stoner Metal riffs. This is how to write the
perfect Doom/Stoner Metal song as it hits all the right notes.
Loud – Yeah
Angry – Yeah
Riffs – Hell Fucking
Yeah
Mammoth Storm have
captured the aggression of Sleep's legendary Dopesmoker and brought
that vibe kicking and screaming for today's audiences. This track is
a wake-up call to the Doom/Stoner Metal community that a great band
has arrived and they are here to stay. These riffs will destroy
everything in it's wake.
Vocalist – Daniel –
shouts at you like his life depended on it. He has one hell of a
presence around him and you will take notice of everything he has to
say. Daniel is backed up by two excellent musicians in Christer and
Emil on Guitars, Drums and Organ respectively, who both play their
part in bringing this Mammoth Storm to life.
Second Track –
Obscure Horizon – is even better than the title track in my opinion
as it starts off rather slowly while steadily building momentum with
dangerous noises and riffs before Daniel starts chanting eerie vocals
once again. Then all hell breaks loose as Mammoth Storm unleash the
thunder once again. A truly brilliant and breathtaking vision of
nightmarish vibes you won't easily forget.
Rite of Ascension is 24
minutes of finely tuned Doom/Stoner Metal riffage that needs to be
released on Vinyl now!!! - As this is the perfect release to be
pressed onto Vinyl.
I should say that
Mammoth Storm have another excellent demo available on Bandcamp for
One Euro and it's 25 minutes of epic riffs. Though this release is
the true stand out
I hope Mammoth Storm
will release a full length record in 2014 as I think these guys have
a very bright future indeed. I will be keeping a very close eye on
Mammoth Storm as I predict very big things for them.
