If this is what the coming plague is going to sound like grab yer shit and run like fucking hell. This is the debut CD from Louisiana's Black Market Ministry and is also the debut from their record label, Leaf Lust Records. If this album is a sign of things to come from this band prepare for lots more sludgey goodness and world fucking domination.
It starts off with a nice ring of feedback and it take off from there. A mix of slow and muddy riffs with some pretty fucking tortured vocals, killer drums and amazing sounding bass.
Fans of Eyehategod (or any of the slew of bands from the southern part of the country that seem to do this kind of stuff better than anyone else) this is a sure treat. There are faster punkesque parts that lead into all out sludge meltdowns. The riffs are thick and heavy, the recording is fucking top notch and the cover is pretty fucking sweet.
This band and this CD are the real fucking deal.
There seems to be a good amount of bands doing doom/sludge coming out that do it very well and these fucking guys are right there at the top of my list. Of course when it comes to sludge, doom, filth or whatever ya wanna call it, the best place to turn is Louisiana. Must be something in the swamp water that makes it way more pissed, devestating and violence inducing than anywhere else. If you don't feel the need to launch a brick at someones head while listening to this you need to be checked for a pulse.
This is just how this motherfucker right here likes his music...Filthy, miserable, heavy, loud and violent as shit.
Again (and I can't stress enough) if you are into doom metal then this CD is a must. Sleeping on this band would make it suck to be you.
