Dukatalon - Saved By Fear (2010)

Country: Israel
Genre: Stoner, Sludge, Metal, Doom, Psychidelic.
Label: Relapse
Tracks: 8

Vicious Israeli sludgers Dukatalon make their Relapse Records debut with Saved by Fear, an eight-track (not to be confused with an 8-track, though that would also rule) beast of seething aural abrasion. Some music just feels like it’s cutting you while you listen, and that’s what Saved by Fear does. With songs like “Vagabond” and “Gate of Mind,” its heaviness comes as much from the oppressive atmospherics as from the thick bass of Lior Mayer, the riffs of Zafrir Zori or Yariv Shilo‘s drums. Any way you look at it, though, you’re basically getting your ass kicked for a solid 46 minutes. -The Obelisk
