I need to get my hands on this. I like trad' doom a great deal and some doom/death.. but I just never found a band in the drone scene that appeals to me. The likes of Sunn O))) just doesn't do much for me... but since I like some blues, I might just try this out.

I'd say this is more influenced by spaghetti Westerns than it is Blues...

i really like this album. the review nailed it; rich and thick describe The Bees Made Honey perfectly. so tempted to buy LP version of this with the intense packaging.

I should get more into Earth. Have had the debut sitting around for ages waiting for my apelike ears to wrap around it, but heard so many good things about this and Hex that I might jump straight to them.
