I just discovered that there's a soundoff that describes this album as "guitar wankery"

Pretty stupid, considering this is stripped down, straight to the point doom metal.

Overrated boring album.



#1 problem is not enough memorable riffs, which is the biggest problem with a lot of doom metal. There is a reason why Sabbath will always be the best at writing doom songs and they aren't even a doom metal band. That reason is Tony Iommi, who is a riff god that can write classics like 'Black Sabbath', 'Into the Void', and 'Hand Of Doom.'



The songs here are extremely repetitive... Stale riffs, mediocre drumming, uninteresting vocals, and you forget about those 'cool solos' because everything starts to blend into each other. The production is total shit. The guitar sound is ballless and the drums are tiny.



Thankfully this album is only 36 minutes long. Any longer and it would be a dud. There is not enough good material to call this a classic.



If you want better doom, check Trouble.

This is going to be interesting. I concur with the Trouble statement though.

I wrote that soundoff and I stand by it

Candlemass and pretty much every other doom band is better...

so you stand by calling this guitar wankery?

Do you even know what wankery is?

You could name almost any other major doom metal album and it would have more "guitar wankery" than this.

This is probably one of if not the least "wanky" metal album I've ever listened to

Yeah he was just objectively wrong with the "wankery" statement. Difference of opinion doesn't even come into it, that was just an incorrect assessment.

The "wankery" I'm talking about is the all goofy wah guitar that appears everywhere. And I said it's boring power chords with wankery thrown in, I didn't say it was nothing but wankery.

Wankery is not the right term then, since the word "wankery" is mainly used to refer to someone being an absolute show-off with his guitar skills, and this is rather the opposite





I really don't care about your opinion or the "boring power chords" but wankery is just terrible word choice
