Papa Jay (Radio Smorgasbord) Great Stoner/Doom album with some awesome songs and a very special slow heaviness which I like a lot. Favorite track: Lucifer Smiled.

lloydd While looking back on many top 20 lists of releases for 2020 this recording kept making the grade. When i first heard this release it was nothing out of the ordinary. So I went back to check it out again .Wow the first thing was to pull my head out of my ass and thank my lucky stars that I gave this another chance. This is fantastic stoner rock. From the song writing, to the musicians, and last but not least the production. Top shelf stoner rock. Favorite track: Dark Souls.

Dark Souls 07:18
Dark Souls I can take all your pain away Your suffering inside All that you are I see Stare deep in the fire You can have all you want The grin across my face You can take what you need Until you fall from my, GRACE! We've been here before my friend A dark place of our own Please take your time Shadowed seeds never grow You can have all you want The grin across my face You can take what you need Until you fall from my, GRACE!
2.
Jar of Leeches I've got this feeling inside, Of something dark arising It comes as no surprise that, We've seen the angels falling For days and nights we wander, In search of some new meaning Beware of what you crave for, I've been crushed by heavens ceiling Turn on, tune in and drop out, Becomes this nation's creed You'll get what you deserve, Served upon those bloodied knees
3.
Lucifer Smiled All this time I've been feeling, Don't know where to begin Hells' fire was burning, Burning deep from within Time and time and time again, Falling further from grace For all the love that you had, Spared the human race My Lord! Far too long I’ve been staring, Kneeling at the crossroads What Hell gives you the right, To cast me so far from home My Lord! Take a look to the skies, Flames gather in the east I've come to slay the old man, I've come to kill the beast Well I brought my army, One third of your kin I am the almighty, Creator of Sin I don't' care about your ways, Take a step to the right It's the end of your days Demons take to the skies, Ashes fall to your feet I've come to take my throne, Time to soil those knees A long time I've wanted, A long time you've been The Alpha and Omega, I'm everlasting I don't' care about your ways, Take a step to the right It's the end of your days I don't' care about your ways, Take a step to the right It's the end of your days

Outerworld 08:38
Outerworld Mortal thoughts awaken me On your consciousness I feed Through darkness I ascend Bring your world to the end Haunting through space and time Astral calls invade your mind I can feel you through the void Hell awaits the asteroids I am, the voice, of the outer world Prophecies been foretold Cosmic evil, Great and old Through a hole in the sky All things end when I arrive I am, the voice, of the outer world I am, the voice, of the outer world
5.
Silent Screams I can hear them, Voices haunting They keep calling, They keep calling Laid to ashes, Laid to dust They keep calling, Calling for me Silent screams in the night Scared to look I don't think twice I can see them, Faces haunting They keep calling, Calling for me Silent screams in the night Scared to look I close my eyes They keep calling, they keep crawling They keep calling for me I can feel them, Come what may They keep calling, Calling my name Silent screams in the night Scared to look I close my eyes They keep calling, they keep crawling They keep calling for me
6.
Disease 07:31
Disease Broken promises, Distorted lies The others tried to warn me, About your devil inside Always the good friend, Always the tool Never seen eye to eye, Just a goddamn fool All this hatred, Hidden from me Although the time has past, Can still feel diseased You messed with family, You hurt my friends Never forget the sins, Til' your bitter end I Can't forgive, but we must live Live with regret, Lest we forget I'm still standing, Still right here You tried to take me down, I had to face my fears You messed with family, You hurt my friends Never forget the sins, Til' your bitter end I Can't forgive, but we must live Live with regret, Lest we forget

about

"Dystopian doom of the highest order" is how Desert Psychlist described Colorado's trio Sun of Grey's self-titled debut EP "Sun of Grey" and considering that it only contained two songs that is some praise indeed. Now you might think after garnering, not only plaudits from Desert Psychlist but also many of those who's opinions really matter in this scene, a full album would follow in due course. Unfortunately that was not the case and it has been a full three years since "Sun of Grey" surfaced to melt our faces and shudder our spinal cords with its brace of doomic delights. Well today we are stoked to announce that the long awaited release of something new from Sun of Grey is over, so please take your seats and buckle yourselves in as we will soon be departing for "Outerworld".

"Dark Souls" opens Sun of Grey's new opus and although not the heaviest of the tracks "Outerworld" has to offer it is nonetheless pretty weighty, its slow juddering groove pushed by booming bass and pummeling percussion is fractured with swirling guitar motifs and is taken to another level by a mixture of monotonic chants and bellowed growls. "Jar of Leeches" follows with bassist/vocalist Freddy Allen and guitarist Ian Hopkins combining on a low, slow doomic intro decorated with clever percussive touches courtesy of Jim Merz that then segues into a fist pumping anthem built around another juddering groove with Allen telling us in bear like tones to "be careful what you crave for". "Lucifer Smiled" is up next and employs all sorts of clever tricks and effects to fill out its lumbering gait and add a lysergic aspect to its sonic impact. Title track "Outerworld" takes the lysergic elements of the previous track and expands on them by adding spoken narrative, clean hazy vocal melodies, droning feedback and lashings of swirling spaced out guitar while at the same time still managing to remain thunderous and heavy while following track, "Silent Screams", ups both the ante and the tempo and finds the band jamming a chugging Sabbathesque groove around an old school verse/chorus/verse dynamic. Sun of Grey bring proceedings to a fitting end with "Disease", an epic sounding opus that is sedately paced but hugely powerful, its low, slow rhythmic dynamic coupled with its hazy monastic vocal melodies and eastern tinted guitar textures ramp up the songs intensity and impact tenfold and in doing so closes out what is a hugely impressive album on massive high.

We were served just a taste of what Sun of Grey could deliver with their debut EP, a sort of starter for the main course, with "Outerworld" the band dish up that main course with all the trimmings, and here we are not talking nouveau cuisine but something a whole lot meatier, heartier and wholly more satisfying!
