Our Take

NEUROSIS's "The Word As Law" is a visceral journey through the depths of sludge metal, combining heavy riffs with haunting atmospheres. This album is like a punch in the gut, in the best possible way. It's raw, unapologetic, and dripping with energy.

From the moment the opening track kicks in, you know you're in for a wild ride. The guitars are crunchy, the drums are thunderous, and the vocals are guttural. It's a wall of sound that hits you like a freight train and doesn't let up until the final notes fade away.

What sets NEUROSIS apart from their peers is their willingness to experiment with their sound. They incorporate elements of punk, hardcore, and even a touch of avant-garde to create a truly unique sonic landscape. It's like they took a blender, threw in all their influences, and hit the puree button.

The production on "The Word As Law" is gritty and raw, adding to the album's overall sense of urgency and intensity. It's like being trapped in a sonic storm, with no escape in sight. But instead of seeking shelter, you find yourself leaning into the chaos, embracing the madness.

In conclusion, NEUROSIS's "The Word As Law" is a masterclass in metal mayhem. It's a ferocious beast of an album that demands to be heard. So crank up the volume, strap yourself in, and prepare to be blown away. This is one ride you won't soon forget.

About the artist

Neurosis

Neurosis is not just a band – they are a force of nature. With a career spanning over three decades, this Bay Area metal outfit has carved out a sound that is both apocalyptic and introspective, blending elements of doom, sludge, and post-metal with an intensity that is truly awe-inspiring. Founded in 1985 by Scott Kelly, Dave Edwardson, and Jason Roeder, Neurosis quickly established themselves as one of the most innovative and influential bands in the metal scene. Their early albums, such as "Souls at Zero" and "Enemy of the Sun", laid the groundwork for what would become their signature blend of crushing riffs, atmospheric textures, and haunting vocals. But it was their seminal 1996 album, "Through Silver in Blood", that truly solidified Neurosis' place in the pantheon of metal greats. With its seismic shifts in dynamics, pulverizing rhythms, and otherworldly soundscapes, this album is a sonic journey like no other – a descent into the depths of the human psyche and a confrontation with the darkest corners of the soul. Since then, Neurosis has continued to push boundaries and defy expectations with albums like "The Eye of Every Storm" and "Given to the Rising", each one a testament to the band's unwavering commitment to artistic evolution and sonic exploration. Their live shows are nothing short of transcendental experiences, with the band's immense sound enveloping audiences in a sonic maelstrom that is equal parts exhilarating and cathartic. Neurosis is not just a band – they are a force of nature. And in a world obsessed with trends and gimmicks, they remain a beacon of authenticity and uncompromising artistry. So, if you're looking for music that will shake you to your core and leave you forever changed, look no further than Neurosis.
