Stoned

It's a fucking monolith, the most badass and catchy riffs mixed in with disgusting production from hell!!!
Acid Witch return with their second Full Length Record, Stoned. While "WItchtanic"may have been a DAMN FINE ALBUM, it it absolutely nothing compared to the sheer magnitude of this. "Stoned" starts out with the intro track Satanic Faith, which has an almost unnameable creepy quality to it, which just kick starts the album into a whirlwind of destruction, crunchy riffage, mind-destroying, face shredding musical insanity. And to add fire to the films, the music has a feel of an authentic 80's horror film, that being meant in the best way imaginable!

The guitars are about as awesome as they can possibly get, with the crusty sounding production coating all but the occasional hair-raising solo. The album is full of reefer-encrusted, truly massive riffs that fill the album with their sheer heaviness. Every fucking sound made by the guitar is memorable to extreme! The sick and equally crunchy bass is pretty much viewed the same way. Being distinctive and noticeable playing along with the guitar, they also bring in some quality intro and interlude parts within the songs (exanple: Witchfynder Finder).Drums keep a good backbone to the music, mainly blending into the music with it's lower mixing into the album. They do keep the rythmn nicely and play a great role in atmosphere, I wish the drummer had decided to utilize a few more fills and some cymbal work that accents the guitars better.

Now, the keyboards weren't honestly a huge part of "Witchtanic", they mainly served as intros, interludes or bridges there, which made them a nice but fleeting part of that record. Not so here! The kryboards play the most important part on this CD here. They keep a constant eerie, horror film atmosphere throughout most of the songs, and one of the best songs on here is probably the interlude "Whispers In The Dark", which is probably the single most repulsive and eerily haunting piece of music anywhere to this day. They can carry the lead (Trick Or Treat) and it's even more memorable then the guitars which is saying a shit ton.

This cd is probably one of the best things to listen to while high ever recorded, they blow stoner doom, death, traditional metal and more then a few other slime-drenched sub-genres into a combined disgusting, enigmatic new dimension of pure unrelenting awesomeness. I'd recommend "Stoned" to just about anything with a functioning brain. It's that fucking good. I'm completely serious. This is the Indecent & Obscene of stoner doom.

Worship this.
