hey, Yakuza's cool

I thought this was supposed to be a doom fest.

That was the original idea, but I guess Alex decided to diversify a bit (probably based on which bands he got to actually confirm). There's enough doom/sludge/feedback worship present to keep me happy, though.

Thats awesome to see Samothrace on there. I went to high school with their bass player and they regularly play Lawrence.

 

[Mountain King]

wow there's a whole lotta bands i could care less about
