Screw

This is the album for today. It's made by dudes on the northwest coast but it ends up sounding like a dark Southern rock band drowning in a vat of codeine. Standard rock instruments drone on and on with a lava-slow drum beat and no vocals, producing a steady hearth of sound waves that seems like it should be more depressing than it is. I guess this stuff is called "drone metal," but the only metal thing about it is a distorted guitar, and although I would say the music is droning, it is entirely melodic unlike most "drone" music. It's like the chopped'n'screwed of rock music.
