Road Recs - Neptune With Fire review

http://www.roadrecs.com/stock/shopping.php3?start=1&action=4&artist=ANCESTORS

Los Angeles based psychedelic stoner rock outfit dish up a truly awesome two track concept album sounding like the meeting of Earthless and Sleep’s truly amazing dopesmoker album. In fact the artwork is provided by Arik Roper who also did the original art for sleeps legendary album. This album is slighly more leaning towards the psychedelic stoner rock side of things though with two very lengthy tracks packed to exploding with guitar heavy riff action and fuzzed up solos. The album is released on Tee Pee Records offshoot label North Atlantic Sound. Its a wonderfully hypnotic collection of sounds deeply rooted in the classic early sounds of stoner rock and really calls to mind some of the earlier sounds of the legendary Desert Sessions on the Mans Ruin label. A must have for fans of the likes of Kyuss and the above mentioned Sleep album Dopesmoker. limited edition vinyl pressing in a gatefold sleeve.
