Ci sono band (es. Black Sabbath) che riescono a fare canzoni lente molto belle e interssanti che ti invogliono a riascoltarle anche a distanza di anni. Non è il caso degli Electric Wizard, qui ci sono solo riff infiniti e ripetitivi, praticamente nessuna progressione della musica, lo stesso riff più e più volte, inoltre questi riff sono stati suonati mille volte e sono stati suonati meglio. Voce generica e insopportabilmente lamentosa e priva di espressività, e mi annoia in una maniera che......Sembra solo che la band sia sempre col pilota automatico, diventa così noioso che non riesco ad ascoltare questo disco per più di 10 minuti senza chiudere lo stereo. E' la noia è esattamente quello che provo quando ascolto questo album.
Elenco tracce testi samples e video
01 Vinum Sabbathi (03:06)
Extracted essence of the stones
Narcotic of the faceless ones
I awake on planet black
Freezing moon, no turnin back
Forbidden sorcery
Vinum sabbathi
Now i'm a slave to the black drug
Forced to serve this black god
I thought myself a master of the arts
This dimension of misery is my penance
Forbidden sorcery
Vinum sabbathi
(repeat to the end)
04 Barbarian (06:29)
[sample: "The wizard..."]
He left the northern hills to seek his fortune
A lone barbarian with only death lust to guide
He carved a kingdom of stone
King Conan, sitting on his bloody throne
His black mane sweeps across his face
Grim and silent with a steely blue gaze
Like a panther ready to strike
His blade crashes down to end your life
Conan rules with an iron fist
Many people, they look up to him
??
You think you're civilized, but you will never understand
Master swordsman of Hyborian Age
His name is legend to this very day
Even gods cower when his sword is unleashed
Nothing dare face him, neither man or beast
Cut a bloody swathe across this battlefield
Red mist rising, break your human shield
Slashed to pieces is to be your fate
Unleash berserker rage none shall escape
Conan rules with an iron fist
Many people, they look up to him
??
You think you're civilized, but you'll never understand
You think you're civilized, but you will never understand
You think you're civilized, but you will never understand
You think you're civilized, but you will never understand
You think you're civilized, but you will never understand
You think you're civilized, but you will never understand
You think you're civilized, but you will never understand
You think you're civilized, but you will never understand
You'll never understand
05 I, the Witchfinder (11:03)
I am Albino, evil witchfinder
I'll cleanse her sins,
For witchcraft I condomn her
My implements of torture are bloody red
Your confession to sorcery will leave you dead
I am Albino, evil witchfinder
I know she's guilty before I find her
I'll pierce her flesh to find this mark
Torture, my pleasure, true servant of the dark
I... The Witchfinder (repeat very often)
07 We Hate You (05:08)
A seed of hate from the day I was born
My right to vengeance from me has been torn
Hopeless and drugged - my black emotions seethe
Loveless and cold - my hate begins to breed.
Black nebula, seething in my brain
Then your fucking world brings me down again
So i'll take my fathers gun and i walk down to the street
I'll have my vengeance now with everyone I meet, yeah!
A seed of hate from the day I was born
My right to vengeance from me has been torn
Hopeless and drugged - my black emotions seethe
Loveless and cold - my hate begins to breed.
We... hate you! (repeat to the end)
08 Dopethrone (20:48)

Doomantra from beneath the sea
Green throne, raised to the black sun
Doom child, wake to planet song
Rise, black amps tear the sky

La loro musica è un morboso mantra di magia nera, una sorta di psichedelia cupa e asfissiante.
Un malefico inno alle droghe leggere ed affermare ancora una volta l’immenso potere dello stregone elettrico.
Di Moonchild
"Electric Wizard ci stanno, lo lascio, osservo Gazz, sente la musica e la ripercorre nel suo stato."
"Portami a casa baby... la felicità si legge sul suo viso rotondo."
Di Wallego
Dopethrone è il lungo racconto di una band che durante la registrazione ha passato più momenti a drogarsi che sugli strumenti.
Non c'è tanta differenza tra il fumarsi un paio di canne e l'ascolto di Dopethrone, perché tutto mi è sembrato più strano.
