Voice of Saturn
If an apocalyptically slow sludge band gets psychedelic on us, is it tuning in, turning on, or selling out? Something tells me Atlanta crunge merchants ZOROASTER won't be swimming in endorsement deals for adding piano and droney chant to "Seeing the Dark", but it does widen their sonic palette in a...April 13, 2009

Right, it's meaner than a hungry pit bull with rabies. The album was floating around for an extended period as an independent release before Brian Sla...March 17, 2009
