Yet another album from yet another stoner band with an underground/hipster sound. The characteristics of the album are typical of many bands belonging to this genre: excessive length (in the sense that the same thing is repeated over and over for minutes), repetitive and identical riffs, an extremely heavy sound that resembles more a drill than something that could even remotely be defined as music. So, what can I say, this album is highly unlistenable. In the stoner/doom metal and heavy psych genres, there are definitely beautiful and important albums, but you certainly can't say the same for this album and for all those that belong to that inaccessible underground/hipster movement. But you know, for many here on DeBaser, as long as something is underground and doesn't make it to the charts, it's automatically considered a masterpiece.

‘8 is a wild and compact, cyclical album. It has neither beginning nor end, a metaphor for the divine fury that harnesses elements and marks the perpetual cosmic flow of Everything.’
‘Let your overexcited nervous system withstand the brutal passage, as if traversed by trails of particles released from a supernova explosion.’
