Zhakathoom Wow! Mothersloth 2.0! This cheese has matured well. Almost gone are the screetchy guitar whines, the vocals are only used (with great effect) only on Dry Tears, and focusing more on a refined exploration of their instrumental sound MotherSloth firmly take deliberate strides into the desert landscape of stoner metal music. The band is almost unrecognizable from their previous release, doomier, more crushing and yet more melodic than before, and I for one like where they are heading.
2 thumbs up! Favorite track: Hazy Blur of Life.

Rock Man (Dave Proger) Do yourself a favor and crank this one up to 11, it's awesome!!! Don't really have a favorite track, I love them all!!!

William Lewis Fantastic doom/sludge record. What sets Mothersloth aside from other bands in this genre it they're technical side to their playing. They're precision players at all levels. Looking forward on where htey will take this. Favorite track: Hazy Blur of Life.

Alone in my room Trying to explain What went so wrong In this endless game Dreams end up in tears Screams inside my mind Faces in the rain All those memories I've swallowed my pain A life in agony All I see is grey Let me live again.

ALL HOPE ABANDON, YE WHO ENTER HERE. Through me you go into a city of weeping; through me you go into eternal pain; through me you go amongst the lost people. Hope not ever to see Heaven. I have come to lead you to the other shore; into eternal darkness; into fire and into ice. Do not be afraid; our fate cannot be taken from us; it is a gift. - Inferno, Dante Alighieri. The cover image of Satan is a still from the 1922 Swedish-Danish silent film Häxan, written & directed by Benjamin Christensen Master of Alchemy
