2014 album from one of the mainstays of the Portland, Oregon underground scene. To describe Stoneburner's music one need only look to the list of bands with whom they've shared the stage: Yob, Sleep, EYEHATEGOD, Neurosis, Buzzov-en, Weed eater, Saint Vitus, Watain, Tragedy, Noothgrush, Graves at Sea, Lord Dying, Drop Dead, Whitehorse, Wind Hand, Bastard Noise and etc. It's all about domination through amplification and soul-cleansing catharsis. LIFE DRAWING is the band's second album and third overall release following closely in the tradition of 2012's SICKNESS WILL PASS. Once again the tracking was done at Haywire under producer Fester's watchful ear and red-rimmed eyes. The same mastering engineer and cover artist were similarly re-employed. What's new is the Neurot logo on the spine and a handful of close friends on guest vocals including: Benjamin Caragol (Burials/Hang the Old Year), Joshua Greene (Bastard Feast, Ephemeros), Martinez (Transient/Landmine Marathon).

Great sludge/doom metal!
Found this band when just looking for new cds over Amazon, and as soon as I decided to listen to part of this album YouTube, I decided it would hit the spot for when I wanted a new doom metal albumI decided to pick it up, and when I finally listened to the album in its entirety I just fell in loveI don't typically listen to sludge when I listen to doom, but this might change that! It was really atmospheric(obviously) had thick, slow paced riffs, some being pretty unique sounding, drumming that fit perfectly with the music, and really just tortured sounding shrieks. It was really just another great doom album to just kind of chill to and I'll definitely go back to listening to it on some of my gloomier days like I do with the few death doom, drone and traditional doom cds I own!Like I saidHaven't listened to sludge all that much, but if I could compare it to any other band I've heard I'd probably have to say it reminds me the most of acid bath if anything, so if you happen to be a fan of acid bath this album is for you
F**O
oscuro
Un monumento denso e oscuro come un magma avvolgente, senza via di scampo un viaggio senza ritorno all'interno delle proprie viscere.
