The nine, perhaps ten(thousand) individuals who held their ground, cheering, writhing from start to finish, singing at the top of their lungs for the entire 2 and a half hours (!) of the concert. The little I've heard prior to this evening has, at best, left me utterly indifferent: after all, this poor Christ is just the latest cog ... of a huge machine capable of creating out of nothing ... the new myth.

A pleasant discovery, nonetheless; a stoner-metal that at times plunges into the swampy lands of a psychedelic rock but always remains minimalist and instrumental. The guitar sound itself evokes a massive and substantial doom, which, however, only sporadically emerges in the rhythms of Cosmic Vishnu.

The pop rock of Charlie is as inoffensive as one can hear: muted guitars, layers of competent but uninspired electric piano and organ. 'Lines' has its best moments in 'L.A. Dreamer,' developed from a piano idea by Kolbeck on the Fender Rhodes.

The band decided to almost definitively shelve the dominant growl until the previous 'Ascendancy' to arrive at a sound derived from classic 80's thrash metal. Double pedal in full swing and ferocity on display that contrasts with the melodiousness of the refrains.
