Giving rock a reason to live
Brandon Findlay | Des Moines, IA United States | 09/27/2002
(5 out of 5 stars)

"On this, their third album, and second for Spitfire Records, Maryland's Sixty Watt Shaman have crafted a record for my generation. Not just for fans of a few select genres, this album is not to be underestimated. Compared to 2000's Seed of Decades, there are some abundant differences... Needless to say, this album, through songs with constantly-evolving song structures, poetic and poignant lyrics, great riffs from all instrumentalists, even better solos from all, timeless performances and an epic production quality, should be put upon a pedastal for all to see, hear, intake, and follow. I would suggest this album for fans of Pantera, Down, Jimi Hendrix, Led Zeppelin, the Doors, Stone Temple Pilots, Kyuss, Gov't Mule, Corrosion of Conformity, and too many other bands to list. Perhaps that's why this album might one day be looked upon as the classic it is. When you listen to it, you hear SWS, and yet, through the slightest inference in a riff, tone, lyric, or solo, you remember music you loved from before. That's what great music does. It brings what you loved in the past to where you are now, so you can live it again. Rock, and fans of rock in all it's forms, from jam bands to metal bands, will find something to never forget here. Do yourself a favor and check this out...you won't be sorry."

"This album is like taking a bath in dirt that doesn't come off afterward. Stepping up the songwriting from their last album, Shaman try to take the stoner out of stoner rock by combining Motorhead bass riffs and vocals with southern rock boogie. Dan Kerzwick's rasp works well on the ode to masturbation, "One Good Leg" and the acoustic "The Mill Wheel." There isn't much here to disappoint. "The Horse You Rode In On" and "Our Name Is War" take Amercian desperado ideals galloping straight to your ears. While it may be derivitive, this is real rock - sweat and all."
Best rock album ever
