Torche - Meanderthal


I know this has been out for a few months already and the dudes have been touring in support of it, but I just got my hands on it. Let me say it is super crush smashed face floor writhing awesome. Get it if you don't have it. Could you call it "stoner pop post-metal"? I don't know, I think I just did. There are vocal harmonies, catchy dirge riffs, slow parts, fast parts. Hell, it's almost like it made me forget how to write out complete thoughts.

Dude, this record will Palin-ize your brain! Yowzers!

If Dave Grohl had accepted King Buzzo's invite to the Melvins, and they had all been hanging out with "Sky Valley" era Kyuss.

Unless some amazing record is going to make a late appearance in the calendar, "Meanderthal" is the best album of the year. Fucking amazing album.
