The album art looks like Adam Sandler's character Little Nicky at a slightly older age, but with a fully grown out beard and noticable horns, while smoking a bong. Album art is funny, but the biggest draw for me to this was "Weird Tales / Electric Frost / Golgotha / Altar of Melektaus". I was high as dinosaur tits hearing that song that I felt I was in a hypnotic state. "Dopethrone" can also be hypnotic for a bit halfway in but for the right reasons. It stimulates the brain while listening to the Dopethrone album as a whole.
Perhaps the metal version of "Zombie" by the Cranberries had some influence on "We Hate You"? Its close to Halloween in my area radiowise so don't judge me on this part. Otherwise, I love how chill this album is.
"I The Witchfinder" has that truly slow pace to it that would make you wonder if the guitars are also high. Everything feels rightfully distorted and slowed down to feel like you're in a psychedelic trip.
Now that I hear "Barbarian" I hear the variety that Electric Wizard has to offer in this album. The vocals here sound at least five years ahead of it's time considering this would be normal for The Black Keys to do about one decade later.
"Vinum Sabbathi" has a bit of a Reggae-like intro going on in it's percussions which is great for those expecting that kind of percussions in Stoner Metal. It's like smooth segwaying from one genre to another!
Overall, this is a great stoner metal album. Ironically the first time I heard anything ... See More

album "Dopethrone" od anglánov Electric Wizard malo celkom vysoké hodnotenie, tak som očakával naozaj niečo veľké. No opak je pravdou, je to len priemerný Stoner Metal so slabým a málo čitateľným zvukom. A Doom Metal -u je tam naozaj veľmi málo. Existuje kvantum omnoho lepších skupín.

이게 무슨기분인지 상상은 해보겠는데요 이게 무슨기분인지 경험해본적이 없으니 이게 무슨 기분인지 몰라서 저는 그냥 계속 가만히 있어야겠네요

This album is so fucking heavy and honestly I didn't expect that powerful they are like a mix between old black sabbath and mastodon but the guitars are so amazing this album will be one of my fav albums off all times

Powerful album with a precious voice-over I'll never forget at the end.

이쪽 장르는 그닥 귀가 트이지 않은 편인데, 몇몇 앨범만 간간히 듣고 있다. 그 중 이 앨범은 들어도 들어도 질리지가 않는 이상한 마력같은 게 있다.

이런 리프는 대체 어떻게 만드는 것일까. 생각을 하게 만들 정도로 훌륭한 명 리프들의 향연을 둠 메탈의 헤비함에 섞어 내고 있다. 상당한 걸작.
