While we're speaking about Om
Conference of Birds IS
THE superior album

but I like them all
I mean how could one not like this
the bass tones are too good... and the drumming is STELLAR

truth is Om GROOVES fucking HARD. With any drummer
and I like every little gimmick about them, even the sometimes ridiculous lyrics
now... High on Fire are awesome too, mainly because of Matt Pike
and together, they are a gargantuan beast of a band called Sleep. Sure, Holy Mountain is a lot of Sabbath, but it might be the best Sabbathy Doom i've heard to this day. And Dopesmoker is something else completely... i mean the whole concept and the size of it. It's repetitive, but in that right hypnotic way.
Sorry, my chariot is currently coming down from its ascension. But still - I stand behind my words
