ok my new line is installed, got both albums

Sleep

I quite like this, very much like Sunn O))). But I still think Sunn O))) has better layering and effects and I prefer minimalism.

Electric Wizard

Maybe a bit too Sabbath-ish for my liking. I prefer Cathedral's The Carnival Bizarre for this type of stoner/doom stuff.

so:-

Electric Wizard - 4
Sleep - 3

Hell yeah! a great album, the only other Cathedral album that reached the heights of that album is Endtyme

Electric Wizard and Cathedral are very similiar bands as well, but Electric Wizard get a lot more love.

If I were a weed smoker, I think Dopesmoker would almost certainly get my vote, and perhaps if I had more time to get to know the album, it would still get my vote, but for now, I'm going to have to go with Electric Wizard. So awesome.

Electric Wizard: 5
Sleep: 3

If you want to get to know the album well take it with you next time you have to drive somewhere far. It one of the best long drive by yourself albums ever.

Ok Electric Wizard wins that one 5-3. Next up courtesy of Metal Connoisseur who seems to enjoy his gallic words. Two post-metal classics and imo the two best albums put out by each band and a must have for any metal collection.

Neurosis Through Silver in Blood 1996


Versus

Isis Oceanic 2002

As much as I love Oceanic (2002) I've gotta go with Neurosis on this one, I mean Through Silver in Blood is pretty much the album that started off the whole post-metal sound. Now if it was Panopticon (2004) instead this may have been a harder choice.

Neurosis - 1
ISIS - 0

Through Silver in Blood wins it easily for me and it's not even the best Neurosis album. Isis are an okay band and Oceanic is an okay album but certainly not up to the level of Neurosis.

Neurosis - 2
ISIS - 0

Neurosis - 3
Isis - 0

No contest here, Neurosis opened the door for Isis, and "Through Silver in Blood" is still the tops for the whole "post-metal" (or Atmospheric Sludge Metal if you prefer). Neurosis created a masterpeice with that album, and it easily trumps over Isis.
