Review by Morpheus Kitami for 1782 - Clamor Luciferi (2023)
I don't listen to enough modern music, I think to myself as I fire this up. Italian stoner band 1782, of whom are somehow on this site despite never having heard of them until finding them quite randomly. Usually the bands people haven't heard of are ones I suggest.
These guys are a very middle of the road stoner band, comfortably chugging away at a comfortable heaviness for the full duration of the album. They're very good at what they do, being a nice, solid stoner band that'll never set the world on fire. The intro has a bit of a Ghost vibe to it, but that disappears once the album itself starts.
If I had one complaint, it's that the vocalist is mixed so low he practically sounds like he's whispering half the time. Doesn't really work with the heavy and raw vibe the band is going for.
