Live In The Hammer
The hardest thing for any doom band to capture in the studio is the magical moment when a riff seems to entrance an entire room of people. If you play ELECTRIC WIZARD loud enough, you might just get there eventually, but really the live arena is the only place to truly experience the mind-altering p...March 10, 2023
