UFOMAMMUT Idolum [2xLP]

With long songs, droning vocals and massive effects UFOMAMMUT is right there along side of bands such as Neurosis, combining their monumental riffing attitude with the psychedelia of the more visionary Pink Floyd. With Snailking - their second full-length release - UFOMAMMUT was internationally recognized as the creator of a unique brand of psychedelic sludge. Their sophomore album, Lucifer Songs, opened new and unexpected doors, being the result of a mature and tight-knit band willing to experiment whilst maintaining its DNA. The flaming spatial voyage which made Snailking one of the records of the year in 2004 in many specialist magazines and webzines, remained as their core sound, evolving alongside new soundscapes made up of sinister atmospheres and gloomy sounds of vintage electronics. In 2008, a new chapter in the sonic history of UFOMAMMUT was released, with their third LP, Idolum. The album again presented a sensible evolution in the band’s sound and structure: totally dark and oppressive atmospheres, simple and mastodontic song frameworks, a different idea of psychedelic rock. "Idolum" is a Latin word meaning, “ghost” and “idea” at the same time, representing the massive but hidden presence as the main concepts of the album. 180-gram black vinyl 2xLP. Imported from Italy.
