Unglaubliche Kollaboration von Brian LUSTMORD mit den schwersten & langsamsten Doom-Metallern der 90er ! Hier vermählen sich LUSTMORDsche Katakomben–Drones mit metallischen Gitarren-Riffs, rockartige Strukturen werden mit elektronischen Bomben-, Noise- und Seltsamkeits-awardgewinnenden Effekten verschönert....und dann rocken die MELVINS auch noch richtig los! Dies nur OBSKUR zu nennen ist ein heftiges Understatement, in Wirklichkeit fehlen uns die Worte.... „What can I say? The combination of The Melvins’ mayhem and Lustmord’s lascivious appetite for resonating evil couldn’t have been better orchestrated. This unlikely collaboration is a rather fine example of musical ingenuity. Lustmord devises dark ambience that is as chilling and creepy as ever, and The Melvins invade the airwaves with a dense and turbulent buzz capable of demolishing everything in its wake. At times, the two artists alternate tracks, giving the other an opportunity to showcase their unique talents independently. Then these colossal giants conspire, curiously improvising and feeding off the creative energy they’ve provided one another. The epitome of Pigs of the Roman Empire has to be the nearly 23-minute long title track. Consider it the demonic backbone of what The Melvins and Lustmord had in mind for this particular recording. Overall, this is a really spectacular accomplishment.“ [Agouti Music]
