WIZARD MASTER

Description:

The long-awaited second album by the dark psychedelic doom band from Rome. The undulating doom riffs and oculistic development of this album herald a doom utopia! Their last album "PHASMATIS" has been released on CD, LP, and cassette by several labels, and has been released here in Japan as well. The dark and sticky doom sound of "PHASMATIS" has become a hot topic of conversation, especially among doom maniacs in various countries. The LP was released earlier on the Italian doom/stoner label Electric Valley Records. The album has already been well received overseas, and was ranked in the top 5 among many releases in the July ranking of "DOOM CHART," which has a tremendous influence on the doom scene. It is steadily gaining recognition among listeners in various countries.Ablanathanalba" is based on the dark and royal doom sound established in the previous album, and effectively uses disturbing organ sounds and sound effects to augment the band's dark worldview. The opening track, "Hell Riders," is an eight-minute heavy tune that begins with a horror movie-like scream of terror and then explodes into a royal doom riff. The organ sounds and narration in the middle of the song make a complete turnaround, and the melodic second half of the song evokes a decadent aesthetic. The following "Funeral Boogie" is impressive for its underlying satanic and rock-feeling riffs, and the way the band does not hide their admiration for BLACK SABBATH. The band's uncompromising doom infatuation can be felt throughout the entire album!
