DESCRIPTION FROM CRUCIAL BLAST:
Back in stock on 140 gram black vinyl, with an etching on one side. The middle chapter of the ambitious triptych is one of the more intense explorations into monstrous metallic heaviness and subsonic drone from this super group featuring members of Isis, Cave In, Doomriders, Forensics, and Converge. When OMG's debut album Meditation In B came out, the band made it clear that they were intent on taking metalcore down some unknown routes, but I was still blown away when I finally heard this massive second album (which had been released simultaneously with the single track dronescape Seminar III: Zozobra ) when it came out. Huge blasts of chugging, apocalyptic dirge metal a la Neurosis wind their way through deep valleys of dark isolationist drone and pummeling metallic noise rock, resulting in a majestic and commanding sound that combines crushing metallic heaviness, cinematic rock, freeform amplifier meltdowns and dark drone compositions. The epic music is spread across two records, sixteen tracks shifting from hulking metalcore crush to quietly ominous soundscapes; the songs are amazingly well written, with huge riffs and swinging desert-baked hooks that sometimes approach a pummeling hybrid of Kyuss and Neurosis, and for an album that is as experimental as this is, OMG are capable of delivering songs that are as memorable as the best stuff from the members primary bands. And the drone/ambient sections are equally great, invoking the eerie metallic drift of artists like Organum and Carnioclast. Some of the standout tracks are the instrumental "Clenched Tight In The Fist Of God" with it's desolate slide guitar over a solemn strummed acoustic guitar and washes of radio static, the weirdly Danzig-like Mojave metal of "Deserts In Your Eyes", and "Three Ring Ocean Sideshow," which starts off from subtle electronic bleeps and builds into a crushing Skullflower-style tower of overdriven guitar feedback. OMG are like a pummeling fusion of Godflesh, Earth, Neurosis, and 70's riff rock, forged together into a crushing, psychedelic avant-metal behemoth. If yer into adventurous metal and havent heard this yet, it's highly recommended.
This is the North American double LP version of the album that came out on Magic Bullet a few years back. The records come in an elaborately printed full color gatefold jacket that is printed with metallic foil stamping. © CRUCIAL BLAST
