The paradigm shift at 4:40 is so mind melting it's unreal. I wish I could have seen this classic trio when they were in Chicago. I have never experienced any current metal band (Korn? I guess) as kickass as the Wizard.
It's in the way Supercoven shifts gears into another riff at the point. It sounds almost like another song. They just don't make power trios like that anymore.
I tend to like more experimental doom and stoner stuff, like your drone stuff and your Jesu style stuff, but what I love about the Wiz is that they "get" what pure simple doom/stoner metal is all about: overamped blooze riffing played as slowly as possible!
i loved this powertrio so much, especially this performance, riffs being pounded into your skull, the highly underrated drummer, the tortured vocals, the lo-fi recording, amazing stuff.
Yes I made a mistake with Gorgoroth...I've been listening to metal for a while now with folk doom death sludge and heaps others but I'm not too experienced...
Obviously Gorgoroth is one of the first metal bands that youve ever heard, as no experienced metal listener would confuse their faux-satanic image as equating heavyness. I see your logic: Gorgoroth are one of the first bands youve heard that growl lots about Satan and use blastbeats so they MUST be so heavy,right? To the rest of us who actually know extreme metal, we appreciate Electric Wizard's massive guitar sound and we aren't impressed by Gorgoroths cheap gimmicks and dime a dozen Satanism.
Besides that, Gorgoroth is a BLACK METAL band and anybody who knows anything knows that black metal is about the atmosphere, not about heavyness (and Gorgoroth aren't even an especially heavy black metal band at that!). Doom metal and death metal are more appropriate places to look if one is more interested in a heavy listening experience rather than an atmospheric one, but seeing as you have no ear for this music, I couldn't expect you to know that, huh?
Sure. Other good exampes of heavy could be Fleetwood Macs'The Green Manalishi, The Cures' Hanging Garden, and even Stravinskis' Rite of Spring. Heavy is an unmistakable vibe and you will know it when you hear it.
Billabong, you've got a lot to learn, little man. Gorgoroth is such a random, bizarre and innacurate nomination for 'heaviest band ever' that you immidiately reveal your inexperience and ignorance.
If you hate EW soo much hatebreeder, why the f**k do a search for them just to leave a retarded comment? It doesnt make sense but then i bet your mum always said you were thick as pigshit.
In the words of Bill Hicks, "You should have been a blow job!"
shut up hatebreeder, you copied and pasted the same comment about the "Return Trip Live" video. you got the same response from me and another person, so shut your hole.
omg - i saw electric wizard live tonight with Cathedral - they are officially one of the worst bands to have ever existed! they suck live and made me want to go to sleep. i cant believe any band can suck so bandly! id rather sit through 6 Coldplay gigs than ever see this shit band again!!!!!!!
Supercoven!!!!!!!!!

billabongstamonsta 5 years ago
I think It is around C for this vid, for the recording A.
But if you really want the sound he gets Buy a Boss Hyperfuzz aka FZ-2, his sound is 90% that pedal.
Also you might wanna buy dopethrone, by electric wizard, it is The shit.
