Toscrew [2012] Crawl
Possibly one of the lamest names I have come across, Hungarian ex-blackened death metal band TOSCREW have dropped their kvlt sound and graced humanity with an attempt at making stoner doom. Now for those unfamiliar with Toscrew they were a run of the mill to okay blackish death metal band, but with the departure of their vocalist things changed for the worst.

While the music itself does indeed hit doom levels at times the vocals just completely ruin everything and anything potentially good on this. Crawl just sounds like a bunch of middle aged Black Sabbath fans got together and made a numetal band. The vocals are just a drawn out clash between James Hetfield and Marilyn Manson. Again, the music is interesting at times but 95% of the time this album conjures up images of local night at the local redneck bar. The kind filled with past their prime old men wearing Godsmack shirts hoping to look cool to their kids.
