Bong – Bethmoora

Word from New Jersey is that the doctors might move my father out of Intensive Care today. This is very good news. I’m happy to see that maybe the worst part of this ordeal is over. And, while it helps me to hear that my dad’s test results are more normal, and his condition has been upgraded, I cannot shake this ongoing feeling of complete uncertainty regarding my life. It’s a weird and scary new feeling. Like a fog that won’t lift. It casts a shadow on everything. Like those old TV commercials where the cartoon guy couldn’t shake that rain cloud following him. Very scary. Thankfully I have a couple people here I can really open up to, and they’ll be able to interpret my stupid brain’s signals and turn them into actual ideas that I can process and use. Tonight there will be a meeting of the minds with my psychological czars. I just hope their diagnosis or prognosis or whatever isn’t as dire as it seems inside my head right now.

Blah. This isn’t a fucking LiveJournal. I’m sorry.

Reader Bennett was kind enough to upload this album for everyone to enjoy today in my absence.

“A new double disc of crushing slow motion space doom from UK doomlords BONG, and be warned, this thing is limited to maybe 100 copies, we tried to order half of those and ended up with more like a dozen. So normally we would highlight this, make a huge deal about it, and sell a ton, cuz this is exactly the format required to fully enjoy the epic glacial cosmic drift of Bong, 2 discs, 3 songs, an epic multi part blackened expanse of slowly unfurling low end doomdronesludge, spaced out and druggy, single riffs spread out to forever, meditative, mesmerizing, a sound somewhere between Electric Wizard, Trollmann Av Ildtoppberg and Bohren. Two originals on disc one, and the whole of disc two is filled up with an epic, ultra minimal cover of Pink Floyd’s “Set The Controls For The Heart Of The Sun”, a surprisingly restrained, deep, dark, smoldering space rock slow jam, total late night chill out come down dream doom for sure. So we won’t make a big deal out of it, but grab one of these while you can, they’re probably already out of print which means we most likely won’t be able to get more…”
