Kylesa - Static Tension

[kingnimrod]

Just a heads-up for those of you into "heavier" music - this album just came out and is pretty great. Sort of a mix of hardcore / metal / psychedelia.

The production on the album is really good too.

Finally got this a couple days ago, and I can't stop listening to it. Perfect blend of sludge and psychadelic.

Really can't get over how good it is.

Production is insane. 2 mono drum kits panned 1 to a side. Massive guitars/bass, but with lots of space and dynamics. Great use of psychadelic effects. Dualing male/female vocals that are outstanding....

10 out of 10, IMO. I haven't liked a record this much in a long fucking time.

Hmm...interesting...never heard of these guys before. Interesting sound...definitely hear a big Ministry influence in the male vox and double-up drums obviously.... Would like to hear them more when my internet isn't sucking.

Yeah, I love that album. It's a bummer their older stuff doesn't sound nearly as good, that's the only album of theirs I really listen to on a regular basis. Saw em live awhile back though in a little movie rental store on an off night during their tour opening for Mastadon. It was amazing. Laura (the female vocalist/guitarist) played the majority of the lead stuff. She's seriously badass
