THE MIGHTY NIMBUSS/T [Candlelight]
(4 Discs)
[Fans of Black Label Society, High On Fire, and Down take note.]
For those who find recent rock music to sound too polished, here's something that should get your juices flowing. Taking the best parts of dark, insanity-driven rock music with a slab of sludge, their creation of music in the backwoods of Minnesota has made The Mighty Nimbus a band that will excite rock fans for ages. This is not for the faint-hearted. The guitar tones, compliments of Dinis deCarvalho and Erik Larson, thunder through the speakers with their vicious low-end and rumble right through. Dan Soren's howling vocals create an eerie vibe that compliments the music well. The sound of this record is very much comparable to such bands as Crowbar ... and hell, even old Saint Vitus. Not all music is supposed to be pretty, and these Minnesotans have proof they created this with dirt under their nails. It's been a long time since rock music has been this exciting, and I'm glad to hear The Mighty Nimbus has joined the assault.
