Re-issue with 1 bonus of the 3rd album from 2000 by these legendary British Doom Metal and Stoner/ Doom pioneers, one of the most influential and revered bands in heavy music. Widely regarded as ELECTRIC WIZARD's definitive masterpiece, "Dopethrone" pushed every aspect of the band's sound to its absolute limit, resulting in a suffocating, psychedelic and crushingly heavy experience. Released in September 2000, the album represented the peak of the classic lineup featuring JUS OBORN, TIM BAGSHAW and MARK GREENING.
Few records have had such a profound impact on modern Doom Metal. Built upon colossal riffs, narcotic atmospheres and a deliberately filthy, oppressive production, "Dopethrone" redefined what heaviness could mean within the genre. Songs such as "Funeralopolis", "We Hate You" and the monumental title track have become essential Stoner/ Doom anthems. More than two decades later, it remains a cornerstone of underground Metal and one of the most influential albums ever recorded in the genre.
Recommended for fans of: SLEEP, ACID KING, DOPETHRONE, BONGZILLA.
