| | Great Cessation CD (2009)
 $11.45  
Probably one of the greatest descriptions of the heaviness of doom metallists YOB comes in the press release for their 2009 release, GREAT CESSATION: "Heavier than the world's entire elephant population." Hailing from Eugene, OR (not exactly thought of as a doom metal mecca), YOB opted to call it a day in 2006, but two years later, the call of the recording studio had brought the lads back together, resulting in their fifth album overall (and first for the Profound Lore label). Expectedly, the songs are long, plodding, numbing, and oozing with riffage and screams -- take your pick of any of the album's five songs (which clock in at an hour total) to experience the doomsday charm of YOB.
Recording information: Dogwood Recordings, Elmira, Oregon (03/2009-04/2009).
Personnel: Mike Schedit, Mike S (vocals, guitar); Sanford Parker (synthesizer); Aaron Rieseberg (bass instrument); Travis Foster, Travis Foster (drums).
Audio Mixer: Sanford Parker.

But the Oregon residents have managed to increase the heaviness factor somewhat on The Unreal Never Lived, which favors a generally thicker, more distorted sound than their previous releases. That isn't to say that YOB has turned into one of the many ultra-dense, ultra-claustrophobic metalcore or death metal bands that believes in bruising for the sake of bruising; even with the increased heaviness, The Unreal Never Lived is not the type of metal album that goes out of its way to be harsh. Nonetheless, the thickness factor has definitely increased for YOB -- and another thing that makes The Unreal Never Lived come as a bit of a surprise is Mike Scheidt's lead vocals. Scheidt, in the past, was known in doom/stoner circles for his high-pitched vocals; he was arguably the doom equivalent of Rush's Geddy Lee or Cradle of Filth's Dani Filth. Scheidt can still hit the high notes, but this time, he surprises you with a lot of ...

| Illusion Of Motion CD (2004)
$9.25
The terms doom metal and stoner rock have something in common with the terms death metal and black metal: they're two terms that don't mean the exact same thing, but the styles are so similar (both have a major Black ...
