Ramesses - Take The Curse
Dark and claustrophobic...

Hailing from the darkest depths of Dorset and featuring the original
Electric Wizard rhythm section,
Ramesses don’t piss about when it comes to delivering weighty slabs of pure, malignant doom. Their second full-length, ‘Take The Curse’ is as dark and claustrophobic as they come, bursting at the seams with massive sludge riffs and enjoyably camp soundbites from 70s horror flicks. The production is appropriately dank and musty, adding an extra layer of unpleasantness to numbers like ‘Black Hash Mass’ and ‘Baptism Of The Walking Dead’, the latter sounding like an
Autopsy record spinning at the wrong speed. Doom the fuck out.
