Album Notes & Community Reviews

The Swedish hard-rock revivalists perfected their vintage, 1970s-indebted heavy-psych sound on their third studio effort. The recording beautifully balances eerie, occult-themed lyricism with incredibly warm, analog guitar solos, heavily foreshadowing the global boom of retro-doom and stoner rock in the following decade.
