Since 2005, Belfast based space- sludge juggernauts Slomatics have scoured the
cosmic plains for doomy inspiration. The universe is a vast place, and with their
seventh album Canyons released in 2019, Slomatics haven't run out of inspiration.
Every Slomatics record tells a story. Their 2016 release Future Echo Returns was an
earthy beast, dense and direct. Bone- rattling heaviness in the form of fuzz- laden
doom was the main tool used on that record; in my review of that release I desired
more tenderness, more humanity.
Canyons is more expansive, an exploration of the far reaches of the universe. Less
muddy, less bludgeoning, Canyons belongs to something spiritual - the over-amplifed
noise slabs are present, but they're packaged differently, sent through vistas of the
melancholic and less abrasive variety.
