sludge / post-metal

Ok, I'll listen to one more song before I go do some useful things around the house. The fact that it's a twenty plus minutes last epos of grinding guitars, brutal screams and scathing drums is not an issue. It never is. I've always loved elaborate and narrative music, even since I heard 'Má Vlast' from Czech composer Bedřich Smetana. I know, it's a bit weird to compare sludge metal to classical music but hey, we live in a weird world.
Coffinfish is a band from Krakow, Poland, formed in 2011. 'Epilogue' is the third and final part in their lovecraftian/weird tales trilogy. It's a massive piece of work, coming very close to the works of bands like Isis, The Ocean, Eyehategod or AmenRa. The song continuously evolves, from calm, soothing and immersive soundscapes to harsh and brutal outbursts of sludge metal. Vocals too range from powerful screams to almost epic, clean chants.
Unfortunately, that is about all I can write about this release, but it's also all you need to know. If you're a fan of post-metal and sludge, you can blindly trust me when I say you should get your hands on a copy of this ep. For fans of the genre, this is a must-have, that's for damn sure. So what are you waiting for? It's just one song, remember?
