Earth - "The Bees Made Honey in the Lion's Skull"


     Drone juggernauts Earth mix their signature dronedoom sound with some desolate stoner/folk rock. The record is the embodiment of the desert, and sounds more akin to Kyuss than it does to Sunn O)))). This being Earth, the album does indeed wallow along, as if being stranded in a barren wasteland for days, dying of dehydration and losing your grip on sanity. The songs crawl along with laid back tempos and twangy guitar riffs. The Bees Made Honey in the Lion's Skull is a unique mix of drone and stoner rock, with a good heap of psychedelic textures thrown in, and I urge you to check it out.
