Ahhh, Ukraine, such a jewel of the former Soviet Union with
its boxers, its vodka and its Borscht. Known for its black
metal scene, the country is also producing a large amount of
quality doom steel. Stoned Jesus, their best representative,
released their sophomore album in 2012 and it's a very cool
example of atmospheric doom/stoner. There's also Ethereal
Riffian and Narrow House to follow, it's a small but talented
scene and its potential is high.
Their debut album First Communion was pretty good but felt a
bit generic and didn't brought anything fresh to the
doom/stoner world. It was very fuzzy and quite Sabbathesque,
nevertheless, it was promising. On Seven Thunders Roar, the
high lord managed to incorporate new influences in their
music and it definitely helped to improve it. The psychedelic
element was present anteriorly but it's much more refined
here and it's now an integrative part of the band's sound.
The album is composed of many different kind of atmospheres,
it can be very uplifting or heavier. It's never quite dark
either.
Igor (guitars, vocals) is a pretty cool dude. His vocals are
quite psychedelic and they're pleasing to the ear. There's no
harsh vocals to be found here, it's very mom friendly, you
can play the record when you're on a picnic with your
douchebags friends and they probably won't complain too much.
You should probably smoke some weed with them while you're
there....yeaaaaaaaah !
