Stoner thrash metal...who knew it was possible? Less thick on the crust , gardened to eliminate some weed and spit-n’-shine polished; not bad, pretty rocking, in fact; yet some smog and mud could be appreciated

yeah, i thought matt wanted to cash in on the metalcore shit, but then i kept listening to the album and it's one hard motherfucker, it's kinda like motörhead meets celtic frost meets the melvins, it revealed itself to me after several listen though. surrounded by thieves is probably a better introduction but i still think bbw is the better album.
or death is this communion, that's also a good introduction, but don't expect stoner/doom, it's metal to the metal.
