Planet of the Dead - Fear of a Dead Planet (2020)^{Release ID: 19557}

Fear of a Dead Planet is the debut release from New Zealand's self-styled "cosmic doom" outfit, Planet of the Dead. Heavy, sludge-drenched stoner doom that draws on classic horror and science fiction for it's lyrical themes. With massive riffs, throbbing bass lines and barked harsh vocals this is piledriver doom that will pummel your ears for it's entire forty minutes runtime. Unfortunately the drums sound a bit dulled, but it's not so bad as to adversely affect the overall sound. Solid.

An album I keep coming back to, so much so that after repeated listens I'd have to say it's better than solid and I've consequently upped my rating to reflect this. If you really fancy a slab of doom that'll give you a bit of a battering then you could do much worse.
