Sickened
by the sad state of modern mainstream music, the gents from Black Wyrm
Seed bartered for a kilo of “magic beans” in a backalley deal somewhere
on the South Side of Chicago, and shortly thereafter found themselves in
an utterly foreign — and yet strangely inviting — domain. There are
some who might refer to the place as “parts unknown”; others might call
it “the great beyond”; and its exact coordinates remain unclear. But
this much is certain: it lies somewhere between 1966 and the mountains
of the moon…and to Black Wyrm Seed, it is now home (as compiled from the
bands website).
Ross Meyerson from Loud Loop Press in Chicago writes:
"Black Wyrm
Seed’s debut isn’t something you’d put on when you need to get shit
done. It’s stoner music for stoners and ex-stoners who like to remember
the good old days when getting shit done had no meaning in one’s life.
And it’s the perfect soundtrack for that. Black Wyrm Seed are more than
comfortable going at their own, sloth-like pace. The fact that it
doesn’t get old or drag is a testament to the fact that they write songs
– slow as molasses songs – but songs none the less. If that’s your bag,
I heavily suggest digging out your old tape deck and finding a bag of
Doritos. You’ll thank me."
