SOLACE
13 (Meteor City)
Reviewed by John Sekerka

You know when Bugs Bunny smashes Elmer Fudd with cymbals? The lumpish yokel staggers away as his head vibrates from the sonic clash. That's what you have here. Thick and meaty stoner sludge, with a kicker of a blast every now and then to get the frontal lobe a-vibrating. Solace aren't the only ones carrying on the legacy of Man's Ruin records, but they are one of the heaviest. You know who you are.
