Album review

Hence this album was my introduction to the band, and even though it came out 2 years ago, it's fantastic and I'm reviewing it damnit. Picture groovy stoner space rock, a helping of Led Zeppelin, MC5, and a bit of Hendrix, with some Boris-esque heaviness. Some of the vocals are in Japanese...if not all, I can't really tell...not that it matters, they serve their purpose in the great swirling brew of distorted noise.
