Free Music Notes for The Grimmrobe Demos Album
Free Music Review: The death throes of the Leviathan.
Hit: 4 Stars
"Grimmrobe" is an awakening. I like "White2" because it's a retreat from sheer, crushing doom to sheer, ambient doom. "White1," mixed as I am about that album, is much the same experience. "Flight of the Behemoth" lacks one thing: clarity. It doesn't sound sludgy, it just sounds as though it's being recorded very, very far away. So the atmosphere is good, but the sound itself leaves me longing. But "Grimmrobe" is what Sunn0)) must sound like at the apex of their Earth-worshipping, Sabbath-following project. Crisp, raw sound, but never lo-fi. Slow, massive riffs, amply walking the line between "Come My Fanatics" and "Earth2"; in other words, unholy doom and drone that engages the willing listener and keeps his or her attention until the end. So many, more "straight-forward" doom outfits lose my attention in a hurry -- if only because I feel that other people have done it, and they've done it better. But Earth and Sunn, for all their similarities, are distinct units with distinct sounds (like night and day for the initiated). "Grimmrobe" is the sound of the Leviathan in its death throes, writhing on the ocean floor. And the ocean is on another planet. It does not paint a pretty, sunny picture, and so this is not for everyone; but it will get inside your head, it will stimulate and calm you simultaneously, and it will leave you with questions, with curiosity, with the desire for more. Doom on, gents, and keep it coming...
