So I heard about this band out of Austin (hello, DZ!!) called The Sword. I heard a sample here and it is rockin! Very doomy, ala early Sabbath. Indeed, that is the band they are most compared to. I hear it. This sample is as riff-laden as anything from Iommi in the early years.

It's not much right but I expect it to grow in soon. Voodoo likey!

| I dig the Sword too. When I worked at a used music store, we used to get to pretty much play whatever we wanted after closing time so I checked that out. Very, very Sabbathy. Also, I recommend checking out the band Early Man if you like The Sword. Another throwback Sabbath-sounding band, with some thrash influences as well. "Death is the Answer to My Prayers" a good example. If you've got a myspace account, they've got some songs up here.

Go buy "Age of Winters" right now! It is awesome! It's like High On Fire meets Pentagram! I saw them live, too, and they rocked. I met them all and got their autographs. They are very cool and super nice.

| I finally got their album. Its actually pretty good. I don't understand why so many trendy people who would never listen to this kind of music love this band so much but oh well. At least there listing to decent music. The album kind of got old for me but I listen to it like for a month straight. I'm sure if I go revisit this album in a few months I'll dig it again.
