Ghost Opus Eponymous
(We have this on CD only at the moment - should
be here on LP next week.) (Rise Above/Metal Blade)
be here on LP next week.) (Rise Above/Metal Blade)
Hailing from Sweden, Ghost is a band made up of six nameless figures
covered in face paint and robes. Their mission is stated as, "to
trick mankind into believing the end is ultimately a good thing via
the ever so popular rock music medium." This album is packed with
satanic, sexually charged rock that will be stuck in your head for
days. Everything about this band works together so well: the imagery,
the message, the riffs and the eerily clean vocals all come together
to really make a stand out album. Praise the beast. The hits: Ritual,
Satan Prayer, Elizabeth
For fans of: Satan, Blue Oyster Cult, Mercyful Fate, cult worship, Castlevania
(Fun Fact: While listening to this album for the first time, I think I
saw a ghost. True story.)

Seven Sisters Of Sleep Seven Sisters Of Sleep
LP Only (A389 Records)
I have been anxiously awaiting this release by California's Seven
Sisters Of Sleep since last year. Lord Dom announced their signing to
A389 Records (home of Integrity, Gehenna, Gray Ghost) by posting a
YouTube video of one of their songs accompanied by clips from the 1922
silent film, Haxan. The music & imagery fused perfectly. This band
features former members of Tafkata and The Arm & Sword Of A Bastard God
and sort of picks up where those bands left off. SSOS plays dark,
punchy satanic hardcore fused with sludgy stoner metal.
FFO: EYEHATEGOD.

Stetson, Colin New History Warfare Vol. 2: Judges
(Ltd. Ed. Poster, LP + CD) (CST075)
Not being a Constellation Records fanboy did not keep me from being
geeked about this record. Colin Stetson plays bass saxophone and also
is in the touring band for Arcade Fire (honestly just learned by
checking his Wikipedia page). The low dulcet tones of that instrument
(Bass Sax) fully dictate the tone/direction of this record with
Colin's guiding breath. It is hypnotic and soothing. There are guest
spots by Laurie Anderson and Shara Worden lending some more soothing
qualities (seriously soothing, lulling and entirely welcoming).
"Recorded with no overdubs or looping, using 24 different mic
positions. Mixed by Ben Frost." - http://colinstetson.com/
