Alaskan - The Weak and the Wounded (2010)

Post-metal sludge from Canada. This is huge sounding!

I have started to cut'n'paste post-metal reviews - although

I love the genre, there is only so many different ways

that you can describe crushing riffs, intense vocals,

continent shifting bass etc. If I have reviewed it, I

think it is really good otherwise it would not be here.

If you are into post-metal than you know what to expect,

right?

But this album deserves a special mention, using samples

from the horror film "Session 9", Alaskan have created

something that I feel stands up to anything released by

Mouth of the Architect - for me the benchmark of greatness.

I found this on Ribs Out - one of the best sites for new

heavy bands.
