Essential Albums
- One of stoner metal’s most extreme slabs, Dopethrone is a violent rebuke to anybody who mistakenly assumes that all highs are mellow. The weed-worshipping power-trio pour all manner of alienation and self-loathing into their gargantuan riff rumble. On “We Hate You,” howler Jus Oborn describes himself as a “seed of hate from the day I was born.” The band actually manage to intensify the darkness on the title cut, which offers 10 frightening, yet exhilarating, minutes of pained screams drowning in hellish low-end.

Artist Playlists
- Their blown-out doom metal makes for a riff-filled journey.
About Electric Wizard
Often referred to as the "heaviest band in the universe," England's Electric Wizard have consistently redefined the preconceived thresholds of a detuned guitar chord with their peerless doom/stoner metal achievements -- this despite an often interpersonally troubled if musically triumphant, career. The sludgy occult rockers have released nine full-length albums since emerging in 1993, including the seminal doom efforts Come My Fanatics… (1997) and Dopethrone (2000), with a tenth (and final) long-player on the way in 2025.
