Heavy Relic - The Apparition of The Great Cabala

Hey you! 
Yeah, that's right ..... you in the corner with 
the blank stare and drool coming out the 
corner of your mouth. 
You look the sort of person who would be into 
"Earthless" ...... yep , me too. 
I guess you like to light up a "doobie" and jerk 
off to Sonic Prayer ...... yep, me too. 
Heavy Relic are a much heavier version of the 
afore mentioned band - this means jams of 
freakout acid guitar brilliance. 
Heavy Relic play instrumental stoner with heavy 
vibes and as with all instrumental projects the question 
has to be asked - is there enough going on to keep your 
attention wandering due to the lack of vocals? 
In this case, the answer is a resounding yes. 
The guitar riffs are loud and nicely fuzzed, evoking 
the sun-baked desert sound but with a heaviness drawn 
from sludge. Excellent audio clips are used to great 
effect but without being overdone. Drones and atmospherics 
throb underneath the songs, bringing in some 
space-rock undercurrents.
