On
Sole Creation, the third album from
Kongh, the Swedish doom merchants make a compelling argument for the power trio being the ultimate delivery vehicle for heavy metal destruction. With just four epic tracks, the band delivers a collection of speaker-blowing, amp-worshiping doom that brings to mind the destructive force of
YOB while evoking the creeping riffs of metal pioneers
Black Sabbath. Don't let the short track list fool you, though;
Sole Creation delivers almost 45 minutes of skull-crushing metal over the course of its four tracks that demonstrate once again why
Kongh is one of the heaviest bands working. ~ Gregory Heaney
