Album Notes & Community Reviews
A foundational pillar of American doom metal, 'Day of Reckoning' leans heavily into sluggish, Sabbath-worshipping riffs and a remarkably thick, suffocating guitar tone. Bobby Liebling's tortured, occult-laced vocal delivery perfectly complements the incredibly slow, ominous, and deeply pessimistic atmosphere. The album stands as a heavy, uncompromisingly dark milestone of the traditional doom underground.
