The Best of Doom... - Electric Wizard is an amazing band. My first album by them was Witchcult Today. After I heard that, I was immediately hooked. Electric Wizard combined crushingly heavy, brutally slow riffs, with eerie, hollow vocals. How could it get better?, I thought.I had just discovered the doom sub-genre of metal, and was ready for more. From Witchcult Today, I purchased another Electric Wizard album, Come My Fanatics.... I think I ll start by saying this: Come My Fanatics... is better than Witchcult Today, and that is an accomplishment in itself.Come My Fanatics... is still the same thing. Tuned down guitars, horror themes, and long, slow songs.I just felt that Come My Fanatics... showcases the style better.
Negative attitudes - The album is very negative saying hoping the world will f**** die and so on. Very hard album to as a whole listen to. I liked doom mantia and is why I bought the album. But the whole album has one song with a great riff in the middle that continues almost like one of Fu manchu s songs on the album In Search Of... The songs are very long 8 minutes or so and my not being stoned listening to the album left me to fast forward much of the album and looking for parts I really liked.
