THOU - The Sacrifice

by THOU

supported by

Emi I don't know why, but I've always seemed to be more of a fan of Thou's EPs, splits, and compilation albums rather than their studio albums. Of course, they're still an incredible sludge metal band either way. Favorite track: New Orleans Is a Hole.

about

THOU returns to Robotic Empire with another substantial 12" EP of five songs in 25 minutes, delivering some of their most condensed work to date.

Recorded at the same time as their "Heathen" album, but eschewing the crawl found on most of their long-players, THOU ups the tempo a bit for this brilliant release while retaining their well renowned doom and roar.

Several new bludgeoners ("New Orleans Is a Hole", "Pill" and "Eulogy") are joined with the masterful drone of "I Believe Because It Is Impossible" and, per usual, a ferocious NIRVANA cover, this time putting "I Hate Myself and I Want to Die" through THOU's apocalyptic grinder.

The vinyl edition is housed in a casewrap tip-on style LP jacket with 45RPM, 180gram color vinyl and high quality digital download included, THOU once again presents the thunder with quality and class.
