Featuring members of Isis, Cave In and Converge, Old Man Gloom has taken sludge rock and metal to its furthest reaches yet, mixing Neurosis- style apocalyptic blasts, the kind of psychedelic, harrowing ambience that would give Earth nightmares and an obsession with all things simian.

Structurally: short, damaging sonic barbs, stylistically similar to Isis's dirge, yet unafraid to explore their more stoner rock leanings, intercut with ambient compositions, noise tracks and bizarre sonic manipulations, to form a fractured yet engrossing whole.

A suffocating melange of various sound textures fused and soldered together by five ambitious musicians. Indeed, Old Man Gloom's music is a successful jaunt into the deepest recesses of discord, where fortuity and pure energy collide in a spectacular landscape of sound and sight.
