Accolades for #1
Wow! The first thing I thought of when I heard this one was Lowrider meets Sunn0))). Pharoah Overlord is psychedelic drone rock in the same vein as 35007 "Liquid" album. The songs are long and the tones are warm and fuzzy and there are no vocals. The riffs are cyclic and stoneriffic! If you like 35007 and Lowrider then you should definitely love this one!
Absolutely amazing burning acid rock jams, 60's psych - buzzing trebly guitars spun out echoing vocals. It's mellow, gentle, floating and dream-like. Pharaoh Overlord will take you on a fantastic voyage into inner space. It's colourful, intense, breathtaking, pure instrumental nirvana, I'm lost for words. Classic is the only word for it.
Much like the toxic sludge that all of humanity's waste eventually becomes, Finland's Pharaoh Overlord have distilled thirty years of rock music into a slow, blistering, bubbling, psychedelic ooze. As the ooze slowly moves through your ears, familiar objects gradually reveal themselves, like a bastard aura hovering above the monotonous blobs of the group's repetitive dirges. While this contamination of the brain may make you a little uneasy at first, it makes a lot more sense once the chemicals begin to take hold.
