Sloooooooow as fuck. Resin-soaked. Extreme. Swampy. Fuzz-toned. Hardcore. Sticky. Sick. If any of this appeals to you, then check out the return of Eyehategod, New Orleans' slowest.The band has risen up from the tar, back from the alleged dead, and have resurfaced with a new studio record.Fuck yes, and just in time.The world needs this wake-up call of extreme metal with slower grooves - the shit on Confederacy is so heavy it would make a life jacket sink.How to describe the sound.Soilent Green without the grind-influenced blast beats? C.O.C. with its Sabbath dosage doubled, the Southern-rock diluted and stripped of all commercial ambition.However you describe it, Eyehategod bludgeon the world.Welcome back my friends.Confederacy's stand out track for me is its second, "Blood Money".But it's not really about tracks, songs, singles or even riffs.Eyehategod is more of a feel, a slow and angry state of mind.Shit, the whole Nawlins scene has been gettin into my head lately.This shit is real people.This is stoner rock for the hardcore set.This is doom metal for those who love grind.This is EyehatemotherfuckinGod.The tastiest, stickiest buds of the extreme (and extremely slow) metal underground.Yeah....
Eyehategod - Confederacy Of Ruined Lives 8/10
