Album Of The Week-Black Pyramid-"Self-Titled" (2009)

You want dedication? I am writing this post between the 1st and 2nd periods of the Pens/Caps game. I don't have much time, but I would like for you guys to be aware of a great band called Black Pyramid. They just released their full-length debut album on Meteor City Records and it is fuckin' awesome. Without further delay, I now present to you the self-titled by Black Pyramid as this week's "Album Of The Week".



Review:

"Black Pyramid play doom with the rumbling down-tuned tones of stoner metal gods like Sleep, Electric Wizard, and High On Fire, but with the epic arrangements of old school metal and doom acts such as Black Sabbath, Pentagram, and The Obsessed. Add to the sonic brew perfectly executed forays into vintage psych and progressive rock, along with the apocalyptic lyrical ravings about war, the occult, and general alienation, and you've got an accurate picture of what the band is all about. Prepare to be crushed by the weight of the Black Pyramid."
