Crowbar Symmetry In Black

2014, Make no mistake: the massively influential merchants of sludge never went away. But as the band's 25th year of existence dawns and their tenth full length album is unleashed upon the world, cofounder, frontman and riff-making warhorse Kirk Windstein is determined to give the band he unapologetically calls his ´baby` the total dedication it demands. The unrestrained push and relentless concentration surrounding SYMMETRY IN BLACK is music to the ears - figuratively and literally - for new adherents and the legion of underground fans and fellow musicians who swore allegiance to Crowbar long ago. SYMMETRY IN BLACK is the perfect album to arrive in the number ten slot of the Crowbar catalog, a penultimate achievement embodying the early sloth of doom touchstone OBEDIENCE THRU SUFFERING (1991), the moody dissonance of modern classic ODD FELLOWS REST (1998) and the crisp thunder of the album's predecessor, SECER THE WICKED HAND (2011), with nuggets of Crowbar's storied history sprinkled throughout.
