Windhand - Grief's Infernal Flower (2015)^{Release ID: 7079}

Windhand's third full-length delivers over an hour of archetypal doom metal. The production is better than ever, with Ryan Wolfe's drums in particular benefiting and sounding crisp as gunfire. Along with the Parker Chandler's seismic bass rumble and the huge riffs from Asechiah Bogdan and Garrett Morris, the guys lay down the perfect backdrop for Dorthia Cottrell's sublime voice. Sounding like an angel in a thunderstorm, the effect is absolutely stunning. Windhand have really thrown down the gauntlet to the rest of the female-fronted doom scene with their last two albums and no one comes close yet.
