No. 1722008·stoner-metal·4 blocks
Maiden, Mother & Crone
A driving, mid-tempo highlight from The Sword's 2008 second album Gods of the Earth -- tighter and more produced than the DIY debut but still pure Orange-fueled retro doom. J.D. Cronise and Kyle Shutt run Gibsons two whole steps down into a cranked Orange OR100 and a 4x12 of Vintage 30s, with an MXR Phase 90 sweeping the riff for that swirling '70s Sabbath/Priest motion. Self-produced in Austin, ~105 BPM in C.
