Review by Daniel for Ufomammut - Snailking (2004)

This is a big improvement on the band's previous "Godlike Snake" release in my opinion. "Snailking" sees Italy's Ufomammut bump up the psychadelia & doom a couple of notches & tone down the stoner rock. These can only be great things as far as I'm concerned. This results in an album that's heavy as hell & dirty as shit. It's like a huge lumbering beast that's tripping out after eating some dodgy mushrooms. I love how the vocals take a backseat to the huge Sabbathy riff carnage. A really fun record.
