Accolades for Split CD
The songs from both out-of-print Man's Ruin 10"s. Dark, slow, slithering, strangely hypnotic, ACID KING merges the fuzz of stoner-rock with the mood of doom, and demolishes any qualms about the apocalypse with the throaty, condemning vocals of Lori S. Joseph. ALTAMONT is southern-fried stoner rock featuring The Melvins' Dale Crover.
ACID KING gets better every release. Their 97 split
with Altamont contains one of the most massively
oppressive doom instrumentals ever in "Phase II" and
their latest `Busse Woods` is my favorite Man`s Ruin
release of all time.
