Hark - Crystalline

Label: Season Of Mist
Year: 2014

Big, expansive, sludgy volume. Ex-Taint. From Wales.
But, what separates this band from a million other "big, expansive, sludgy" bands, is that they can a) get away with injecting some melody into the songs, and b) throw a weird time change curveball into the songs. Sounds like it could have come out of Savannah, Georgia circa 2005 (sorta LOOKS like it could have come out of Savannah, Georgia circa 2005 too...John Baizley tip 'o the cap in the cover art).
For my metal homies.
