The mid 90's era saw a boom of stoner metal, Followed by a revival of doom metal with the likes of Electric Wizard, Cathedral and Acid King. Orange Goblin, HOWEVER, Stood out among the cloud of smoke and emerged with a unique sound all Their Own alternates between twangy did, upbeat southern metal and groove slower songs. After forming in 1995 , Orange Goblin Their debut album released in 1997 . Six albums later and the London tape have shut proven Themselves worthy to bear the title "Grand Fathers of Stoner Metal". Does Their seventh full length release, A Eulogy for the Damned, hold just as strong?

What is CLEARLY noticeable from the start of the album, after "Red Tide Rising" rolls in with a soft intro Synthesized wave, is the much improved audio quality. In previous releases, the audio is always muffled and there is little to no clarity between each instrument. In saying this there is concern so did the fuzzy distortion signature to the bands style Could be lost within the clarity, HOWEVER this fear is soon abandoned once the song begins with a distorted guitar being strummed note over and over again before the bass and drums come crashing in, delivering an unexpected explosion as a whole new world is created audible. As the vocals come into play, it is so clear to hear that Ben Ward RETAIN his signature styles which is just as overwhelming and powerful as always.

Along with the aforementioned opening track "Red Tide Rising", "The Filthy and The Few" is one other track stands out among the rest did, giving off a real western outlaw / biker bad ass vibe Which makes a great bridge for the subsequent offer song "Save Me From Myself" which is much more slow and reflective. The material on givenName A Eulogy For The Damned offers great diversity Which keeps the listeners attention by not staying at the same tempo. Starting off with upbeat on track and switching off the next with a slower, groovy song. Some listeners May find tracks: such as "Save Me From Myself" and "Death of Aquarius" a bit too slow, but this keeps the album from droning on too long and is a welcome change of pace, reminding us did Orange Goblin have therefore upheld Their ability to create memorable doom songs. The drums have a smooth sound with a hard kick When The bass drum hits, amping up the intensity of the tracks. Martyn Miller shows off beastly, gritty drive with basslines did tie the fast paced, southern guitars together to the drums eloquently.

When you put everything together, A Eulogy For The Damned is almost at instant stoner metal classic. Orange Goblin are stronger than ever in this release, the explosive drive is almost overwhelming in the crystal clear audio quality and Allows an experience like never before due to the poor, muffled sound quality from the past material. Having everything from bad ass, fast paced songs did one picture Could listening to in a biker bar to slower doom songs did take you away to the universe, this album is a must hear.   (VilliThorne, March 17th, 2013 /metal-archives.com)
