Haggatha - II

HAGGATHA - II
2010
Killbomb / Choking Hazard Records

"First the Earth cooled. Then the dinosaurs came. Then HAGGATHA arrived and shit all over your mind." This description from the bandcamp page is actually pretty accurate. It has its hints of humor, but it speaks about primal sludge.

The musical reference for this Vancouver band could be Eyehategod (Dopesick era), although they brought the tempo down to a degree where it reminds me of the mighty Sleep, with sheer heaviness (aka primal violence) similar to the first steps of Zoroaster (Dog Magic). Good shit all over my mind.

This is the second Haggatha official recording, but the first full length. No surprises, but no flaws. The artwork is nice, and it has been issued on wax (12''). Also available for free streaming and for downloading at a very low price on their bandcamp page.
