Double album on white vinyls with gatefold cover. Limited 300copies

Recorded in queerest Wales over Halloween 2011, God Curse Usmarks the sophomore resurgence of Witchsorrow — a mysterious powertrio whose vintage doom sound and occult subject matter affix heavymetal history to the release of Black Sabbath´s Master of Realitysome 40 years earlier. The bandmembers openly admit their debts,though, claiming no pretense to improve upon heavy metal´s originalmasters, but merely carry on with their dark work, and this honestyis largely vindicated by this set´s creative reshuffling of suchwell-worn musical ingredients. Opener "Aurora Atra," for example,reconfigures passages inspired by the Sabs´ "Warning," "Hand ofDoom," and "Children of the Grave"; the ominous "Megiddo" echoesthe haunted psychedelics of "Sleeping Village" and shrill Iommilicks of "War Pigs"; while the unnaturally fast-charging "Breakingthe Lore" is Witchsorrow´s own "Paranoid." Now, contrary to thisprincipal thesis, perhaps there are a few of Electric Wizard´snew-millennium excesses reflected in the protracted song lengths ofthe title track, "Den of Serpents" (see hypnotic coda), et al. —not to mention their Hammer horror soundtrack kinks in theinstrumental interlude "Ab Antiquo." Moving even further away fromthe Sabbath bloodline, one could make a good case that theexponentially slothful grind that is "Masters of Nothing" owessomething to the modern funeral doom aesthetic and, heck, singerNecroskull´s harsh growls really sound nothing like Ozzythroughout. Still, Witchsorrow´s dominant sonic philosophy remainsrelatively pure to those early-´70s analog values, and this shouldensure that the vintage charms of God Curse Us will prove all toobeguiling for doom purists to resist.
