Transcending the current crop of heavy music imitators, MINSK bleed their tribal conviction with an atmosphere of total psychedelic delirium. Hypnotic percussion thunders beneath thickly layered guitars as synths and samples provide a backdrop for searing melodies and deeply spiritual vocal ruminations. Superbly produced at the Volume Recording Studio by bassist/vocalist Sanford Parker (PELICAN, UNEARTHLY TRANCE), The Ritual Fires of Abandonment is a profound and provocative experience that will have an intense and lasting impact on all who dare approach.

Summary: Tribal, Psychedelic Sludge/Doom
Comment: "The Ritual Fires of Abandonment" takes the sludge/doom genre to a new level by incorporating a tribal psychedelic atmosphere. The album it self is outstanding and very unique, I have never heard any band quite like Misk. If you are a fan of Neurosis, Baroness, or Mouth of the Architect, or if you are looking for something new a unusual you should definitely pick this cd up, it shouldn't let you down.

Summary: Pummeling towards transcendance
Comment: I would characterize the style Minsk present here as psychedelic doom metal. I am unfamiliar with Minsk's creatively titled and much-liked debut, so I can not compare this album with that one, but what you find here are long, meandering songs that build to tumultuous crescendi, neo-tribalist drumming, reverb drenched riffage, spacey keyboards, and vocals that occupy an agreeable point of intersection between hardcore, death-doom, and Glen Danzig (at his screamiest). I think some might too quickly tout Minsk's odd stylings as unique, but in actuality they do not stray so far from the path tread earlier by the Australian group Alchemist. I would say, however, that Minsk's version of that sound is superior to Alchemist's Organasm CD and more powerful and metallic (and less groovy) than Austral Alien. (Neurosis is of course a point of comparison, as well, but I think that group retained more of a hardcore influence than you find here.) Overall, Minsk's latest is perhaps the fullest, most well-developed psychedilia-infused doom album I've ever heard.

Summary: better then the new neurosis
Comment: this is definitly one of the best cds to come out of the yeah. They remind me a lot of through silver and blood era neurosis. Fans of neurosis, isis and the like should pick this up. One of the best cds of the year
