Familiar with this artist? No
Familiar with the genre or subgenre? A very little on both
Average RYM Score: 3.47
That name is just made for a doom metal band isn't it? And these guys seem to rate both tags, doom metal and shoegaze; as I listen to the first (and longest, at over ten minutes, but just barely as the other three tracks on this all eclipse the nine-minute mark) I can hear both indeed. In fact, given the band name again, there's a real feeling of desolate western landscapes, prairies, outlawed strangers and mystery going right through this. That feeling is helped of course by the album cover, showing one of those old Mexican churches that crop up in so many western movies, usually as a place where the good guys make their final stand, the old copper bell pealing out dolefully (again, appropriate for a doom metal band) when the bad guys approach.

I'd definitely class this as more in shoegaze territory, though I can hear the whispers of doom metal in there. It's sort of hard to review, given that most of it is kind of the same, but it's a good same, if you know what I mean. Nice false ending there halfway through the final track. Yeah. Like this a lot. Nice one.

Check out more from this artist? Yes
Check out more from this genre or subgenre? Yes

Poor people gotta eat I guess... :rofl:
Seriously though: do none of these places close down for Xmas?

Well, technically I am at work, so, you know.
But when I worked in an office, we would end halfday usually Dec 24, be off 25/26 and the next two or three days, depending on how the Christmas fell, would be staggered between the staff.

4am like every day cause nobody cares about whatever the hell they call the day after Christmas. Manager was late so nothing was ready when I came in, two hours later the dude supposed to come in called out, then when I was supposed to get off the person on the schedule called out cause **** her and she never shows up anyway. And we were kind sorta busy so the day after Christmas was mildly ****ed up.

Welcome to America.

America: where the fast food employees never sleep.

I honestly had no idea. As I say, here we always have the two days, same in the UK, possibly the rest of Europe. I just find that strange; I would have thought, with all the Irish immigrants going over there, that the traditions would have gone with them.

It’s amazing the 24 hours ones. I often think, goddamn, they can ALWAYS get someone to be there. ****ing ALWAYS. Like it’s crazy that it never happens that everyone just says **** it. Incredible really.

At least, we didn’t sit around with our thumbs in our asses and starved while the English stole our food.
