NRAR: after the Church Of Misery posts scattered here over the years, here comes a general recap with the newest album. Why now? They are playing a live gig tonight and the whole Church Of Zer shall be attending, let us be prepared. If new to Church Of Misery, the key words are: doom, sludge and stoner, with a chronological evolution in that direction. Favorite entry: Thy Kingdom Scum. In 2020, they sound more and more like Corrosion Of Conformity in 1995. The main differences with C.O.C. are:
- the lyrical theme is exclusively about serial killers in a less poetic fashion than Macabre
- a dirtier, less radio-friendly sound and a sludgier approach to the stonerizing
- their drummer is alive
And I hope it remains that way until tonight.
