When they assembled in Minneapolis in the fall of 2003 to record their eponymous debut album,
the Mighty Nimbus convened quite the collection of American sludge/doom/stoner rock specialists: former
Sixty Watt Shaman members Dan Soren (vocals) and "Minnesota" Pete Campbell (guitar), ex-Electric Chair Horror bassist Dinis de Carvalho, ex-Chaos Witch drummer Andy Campbell, and possibly most important of all, ever-inspired
Alabama Thunderpussy guitarist
Erik Larson. The first and last of these decided to resume their other pursuits shortly after concluding work on the LP, which was issued to great acclaim the following year by Candlelight Records, but vocalist Alex "The Yeti" Petrovic was soon tapped to fill the void and
Larson too was coaxed back long enough to join
the Mighty Nimbus on a subsequent American tour in support of
Entombed,
Crowbar, and
Pro-Pain. ~ Eduardo Rivadavia
