Rating: They are witches devoted to Satan, cruel women without God. They live in this abandoned village to escape the Inquisition.
Your grandmother condemns this album for the absence of Violence. The Violence was in "Dopethrone".
Your grandmother condemns this album for the absence of that dirty, abrasive sound. Like "My Fanatics" & "Supercoven" sandpapered the speakers.
Your grandmother condemns this album for the absence of those trips so sick and depressed that only she can digest them, and that makes her feel ahead. They were in "Let Us Pray".
Your grandmother condemns this album for the absence of more varied Riffs, of songwriting subject to more changes. We Live, damn it, We Live.
Your grandmother might even have the guts to say "but damn, a little classic doom is needed!" But what's the homonymous album for?
The cult of witches, today in Dorset, is more alive than ever. A more relaxed, in-love, detoxified Oborn. An Oborn realizing - once again - something different from the previous work. Matthew Hopkins returns home: now we cheer for the prey. If before you could compare works like Dawn of the Dead, The Hills Have Eyes, etc. etc... now we are in the heart of the '60s. A softer Horror, a black and white where you see very little blood. A more mental and less physical Horror, something more finely finished where there's a crime and not a massacre. Still a Horror, but hear this: in this album Jus commits to singing. The psychedelia is no longer sick, no longer depressed, and much less heavy. But damn, there's so much of it. Un Bè. Olè.
Because you must always keep in mind that your grandmother - may God bless her - never understood a damn thing about Doom.

Black Masses is an excellently constructed CD bearing the visceral and demonic sound of the most intransigent stoner doom.
Electric Wizard construct an extremely obsessive and redundant full-length, but with that positive and pleasant redundancy.
