THE BEAST

Watchman - Doom Of Babylon - Reviewed By Adrenaline Armory ! Check it out here at this link: http://adrenaline-armory.com/reviews/music-reviews/#watchman

Multi-instrumentalist, producer, and audio engineer Roy Waterford is no slouch. He’s spanned many genres, worked with numerous big names in the music industry, and has been prolific in creating music of all kinds. So, it’s no surprise that this album straight up answers the age-old question: “Does it Doom?”

The answer? Yes, yes it fucking does!!

This solo project is HEAVY. Rooted in the sludgy waters of early doom from bands like Black Sabbath, Uncle Acid and The Deadbeats, and Electric Wizard, “Doom of Babylon” is an album that hits every doom related note with an amount of fuzz that’d make a yeti jealous. The riffage is tight. The tone is dark and sinister. The vocals are buried and sound as if from a grave. This entire album just does it for me because right when you think you can hear the influence from one band, he layers on another, and another in a bluesy, psychedelic ground pounder.

All in all, this album throws its weight right into your neck, and you can’t help but throw up the horns and headbang. Three songs have been released as a standalone E.P. which can be found on YouTube and Bandcamp under Watchman.   https://watchmandoom.bandcamp.com - Production: 10/10  Vocals: 10/10  Instrumentation: 10/10 - Fuzz Factor: 11/10 - Total: 11/10 - Adrenaline Armory
