TIDES OF SULFUR ‎– Paralysis of Reason / VINYL LP

Venomous acrimony and a hellishly filthy presentation help Paralysis of Reason do a great job of highlighting the punk side of sludge’s heritage without losing the weight of the low-end. There’s no doubt that the band are expressing themselves honestly, and the rawness on display is something quite rare in the mass of today’s jaded sludge output. It’s worth checking out if it’s something you’ve been missing, or if you need a reminder that something doesn’t have to have been ‘blackened’ as a descriptor to be almost virulently uncomfortable in its aggression.
