Holy fucking hell is this shit heavy. Wandering across the doom metal landscape is getting to be such a treat lately with bands like this coming along.
These guys are a three piece band from Louisiana but you'd think there were like 8 guitars and 5 or 6 basses due to the extreme heaviness of this. They blend together (and very well I might add) sludgey low end sounds with experimental (at times) noise fests that fit like a glove.
I can't really grab a handful of bands to compare them to but if you are into Neurosis with less of the beauty and a touch more filth then this is right up your alley.
There are 7 songs on this beast of a CD. Highlights are Monolith which kicks off with an awesome sounding drum and guitar combo, Tea Pinky which has two of the best riffs I have ever heard (and back to back, mind you) and the 14 minute plus title track (Heart Vs. Spine) which is just as devestating as it gets.
They write super good and catchy doom riffs and just batter your eardrums from start to finish. Saw them live recently and you wouldn't believe me if I told you how goddamn heavy they are live.
Any fans of doom metal, sludge or just fucking sick as hell music done exactly the right way need to get this.
