Never has a band's name suited their brand of music as much as Poland's Ebola. Highly infectious, blackened death/grind who's ferocity can likely cause hemorrhaging from the ears. 'Infernal Revelation' is an album packed with blistering barbarity, shortish songs that flay without mercy, with searing solo's that pour salt into the wounds.

OUTBACK ~ Hymn of Jupiter (2023)
Born from the coastal landscapes of Saxon England lumbers a stoner doom heavyweight burdened with colossal riffs of seismic proportions.
I've only recently discovered this exceptional release called Hymn Of Jupiter by Outback and was literally shocked to see that their Bandcamp Page is virtually devoid of any presence of the usual suspects of the stoner doom community, how can it be that a titan such as this could pass us all by unnoticed.
The album consists of four lengthy songs with a nod toward their doom majesties Electric Wizard but there is also the weedian groove of the Japanese stoner doom scene particularly with the second track 'The Sorcerer' with it's mesmerising but acid flecked solo and the use of psychedelic guitar interludes that locks the tracks of Hymn Of Jupiter into a seamless, unstoppable, eruption of magmic morass.
