Sep 25, 2013It's a smothering, enveloping textural experience, alternately threatening to cocoon or drown the listener.
-
Sep 25, 2013Clocking in at over an hour, Soma is by no means a brief experience, but Windhand's ability to craft doom that actually feels dynamic makes the album the sort of meditative journey that metal fans would be foolish not to embark upon.
-
Sep 25, 2013Soma is a stellar effort on this Virginia band’s behalf. It may be a tough listen for Doom Metal passers-by, as the droning guitar approach and snail’s-crawl tempos can be off-putting to unscarred ears.
-
Sep 25, 2013Soma sits still, paralyzed by the weight of a sound that’s too big for this promising band to manage, at least for now.
