Aqua Blue. Catalog Number: RR75581 Color: Blue Format: LP UPC: 781676755813 The UK's Iron Monkey return with their highly anticipated new album, Spleen and Goad! On the new album, the legendary band are as uncompromising ever, churning out some of the most gritty sounding sludge doom in their 25 + year history. Dubbed a "doom sludge vanguard" by The Sludgelord, Iron Monkey live up to their legacy, absolutely pummelling through each of the 9 tracks on their new album. From the two-ton, heavier-than-anything-else riff opening "Concrete Shock", Iron Monkey show no signs of easing up; fuzzed out guitars crash against pulse-pound drums, set against vicious, misanthropic snarls and barks. Elsewhere, tracks like the aptly titled "Rat Flag" kicks the band into high gear with palpable fury and malaise. Recorded in their native Nottingham, Spleen and Goad was mastered stateside by Brad Boatright at Audiosiege. For fans of Eyehategod, Electric Wizard, Acid Bath, Primitive Man, Grief, Church of Misery, Sleep, Bongzilla, Noothgrush
