Whoa! What the heck is this?? Portland's Big Black Cloud occupy a strange music universe caught somewhere between punk, doom metal and like...I dunno...Captain Beefheart? Anyways, if I caught your attention with that last sentence then these guys are probably worth a listen. This band is incredibly tight and impeccably produced (they let the filth come from their tone and their arrangements as opposed to the recording technique). I must say upon listening to the entire LP all the way through I feel somewhat disoriented, but I like it...Like going to a Lars Von Trier film or something. This is definitely not a band for the faint-eared, but if you feel like gettin' a little obtuse whist banging your head resolutely crank this bitch up and blow your brains out! Get it here.
