The End Is High

Polish instrumental band Belzebong returns after an eight-year hiatus with 'The End Is High,' released via Heavy Psych Sounds Records. The album delivers the quartet's signature weed-laden stoner and doom metal, built on low-tuned, fuzzy guitar riffs and bowel-shaking grooves without the need for vocals. Tracks like 'Bong & Chain' are extended explorations of their sound, incorporating samples from cult cinema and moments of trippy, sludge-infused jamming. The record is a masterclass in instrumental doom, creating a heavy, hypnotic atmosphere that is both apocalyptic and darkly humorous.
