Review:
HOOF
is the type of band that I love promoting on Sludgelord. A band that
comes along and literally impresses me in a big way with their heavy
riffs that soon get under your skin. HOOF deal in heavy pounding
Doom/Sludge Metal riffs that harks back to the early days of High On
Fire with an ode to Black Sabbath here and there.
Their
debut EP – Seraph Of Saturn – is a strange and very dark EP as it
ventures from fast-paced riffs to the more strange experimental
occult overtones of sublime 3rd track – Forbidden Pact.
Though opening track – Black Drug – will have you fast-paced
sludge metal junkies on edge with it's style of blistering style of
angry riffs and superb vocals to match. Seraph Of Saturn is an EP you
need to play very LOUD to get the full effect.
Fourth
track – Putrid Affair – carries on the heavier carnage from
opening track – Black Drug – but gives it a more doom and gloom
makeover that sees HOOF become demented murderous mad-men of the
riff. Embrace this with open arms if you dare. Definitely the EP's
standout track as the band even include a trippy psychedelic occult
rock sound near the middle of the song.
This
is an outstanding debut EP from HOOF as it's contains a ton of great
ideas that one listen to the EP is never enough. If you're a fan of
70s style Classic Doom Metal, Occult Rock and modern day
Sludge/Stoner Metal then Seraph Of Saturn is the EP for you. This is
a dark and mysterious tale that you won't be able to get enough of.
