Phantom Glue - st

Year: 2010
RYM / Here

Pilfering the heavy from seminal acts like Electric Wizard and High on fire, and the wailing guitars of drug lords Pentagram, Phantom Glue's colossal wall of sound would make Phil Specter shit his pants. The quartet shacked up to record their debut with Kurt Ballou (Converge, Doomriders, Torche etc.) at his Godcity studio for a live session of cranked amps and rumbling floor boards. With mastering by Nick Zampiello (Isis, Torche, Cave In) and hand painted artwork by artist and guitar player Matt Oates, this self titled record will do more then put Phantom Glue on the map, it will help them stomp all over it. -Tor Johnson Records

Ufomammut - Eve

Year: 2010
RYM / Here

Already easily one of my favorite albums of 2010! The only thing possibly wrong with 'Eve' is that the first fourteen minutes, being the first of five parts from this conceptalbum devoted to the first woman on earth, are so good that it leaves you wondering for the remainder of the album what you've just experienced. Heavy, deep and sinister, Ufomammut creates a vast world of sound from which no-one can escape. Do not listen when it rains, because this is doom. Highly Recommended!
