Review by Sonny for Jex Thoth - Jex Thoth (2008)

I love female-fronted doom and heavy psych, but I have always been reluctant where Jex Thoth have been concerned, probably due to the vast quantity of negative comments regarding the band that have wormed their way into the back of my brain. Anyway, after finally giving them a chance, I'm glad I did. I just can't see why so many have taken against them. Their retro sound is great - psychedelic flourishes over a doomy core - and Jex has a terrific voice.
