Still unable to say the name without breaking into a fit of
laughter (not unlike me on certain green paths), imagine my
surprise to find myself actually craving the mighty Bongzilla!
Unable to abate my hunger for this slab of Sabbathian riffage,
one could say my habits have taken on a gluttonous bend. How to
describe the Bongzilla experience? Well, it will be different
for everyone. Some may feel joy, some may feel a touch paranoid,
but all will succumb to the wrath of Bongzilla! As for me,
anything which touches on what Sleep has accomplished in the
last 7 years deserves my attention, and while the vocals may
harsh the throat more than your average dose, the conviction
with which this is performed leaves me no choice but to relish
it's existence. Master knob turner Billy Anderson must also be
thanked, for he has kept the purity which is the Bongzilla sound
there, increasing the potency while filtering the unwanted.
Excellent sludge rock, baked to perfection, but, I also have
this sneaky suspicion that these guys might smoke pot. If that's
the case, then I will burn this disc, because drugs are bad!
Bad, I say! And also, well... because... Shit, I lost my train of
thought.
