The Review:
Another
four track EP from these Californian denizens of doom. Since flying Rise Above's nest for
creative control and a much busier release schedule, Trevor William Church and
friends have worked hard to put out a lot of new music. Haunt (Church's other
band) may be making a lot of waves these days, deservedly so, but I think Beastmaker are the
better of the two bands.
Truthfully,
there is a lot of Pagan
Altar/Witchfinder General/Angel Witch et al present here- just as
there is in Haunt's
output- but that does not dilute the power here at all. The title track comes
across like Cauldron
slowing down and playing doom, whilst “Shadows” sounds as British as can
be- to hear it is to recognise a band seemingly straight out of Birmingham, not
sunny California.
