Death, technical, sludge-y, grinding, stoner, and occasionally “weird.” The best are death metal gods. Some decent stuff with horrible crap in between.
With a roster like Neurosis, Soilent Green, Nile, Incantation, Amorphis, Today Is The Day, and Dillinger Escape Plan, how can Relapse be anything but quality?
The vocals are grit ugly, kinda strangled, and aided and abetted by samples dealing with the noble herb, apparently the only thing worth living or fighting for.
