5.0 out of 5 stars Another triumph!, October 12, 2008
This review is from: Tail Swallower & Dove (Audio CD)
I've been listening to TAAS since their first EP and I've got all their subsequent releases (including the split EP they did with Harkonen --and looking forward to their Pelican collab). I will maintain that "Drinking From The Necks Of The Ones You Love" is one of the best songs ever recorded.

This one ranks up there near the top, it's a very solid album.

Oxeneers I felt was great, and a little better than Easter. So I was a little concerned about how they'd follow up. However Tail Swallower & Dove has matched Oxeneers in my book.

What strikes me is that TAAS can experiment without being experimental --they still have the foundation of traditional rock. But they aren't afraid to throw in some fancy percussion, keyboards or even voice synth.

Honestly, while a devout fan, I was a little afraid that this album would just be "more of the same". But like all good rock bands, I'm pleased that TAAS has given us the sound we're accustomed to while keeping things dynamic and interesting.

They're good live too, if you ever have a chance to see them.

(I saw them with Triclops! opening --I kind of wonder if those bands compared notes on voice synthesizers?)

5.0 out of 5 stars Awesome., January 2, 2009
This review is from: Tail Swallower & Dove (Audio CD)
Albums like Torche's Meanderthal, Boris' "Smile" or Baroness' "Red Album" keep getting all of the press, but this is my choice for sludgie stoner badassery of the year. Comes on like vintage Fugazi early, then the keyboard burbles kick in at the end of Woolen Heirs and the album becomes something else entirely. I bought this on an impulse when I got the new Genghis Tron, but I've gotten more mileage out of TAAS. Highly recommended.
