Accolades for Self Titled
If you are a fan of The Obsessed or Pentagram, step right up folks...Voodoo Shock are a classic sounding doom rock band who capture a pure classic sound that Wino would be proud of. Get this one if you dig Wino stuff, Place of Skulls, Pentagram, the early stuff, Penance...that East coast driving doom sound. Of course, Voodoo Shock are Swiss and German, not that it matters. This stuff rocks and gets my approval, and will get played for myself and many friends over and over again. DOOM!!!
The heaviness of the music is nicely offset by the languid guitar solos and the relaxed vocal style... They combine the speed and density of Wino-era Saint Vitus with the ethereal feel of the slow sections of 'Sky Valley'.
Uwe's inspiring melodic vocals and ringing guitar work (a la OBSESSED perhaps?) are showcased with VOODOO SHOCK... well-written melodic Doom cuts, slow and beautiful.
