Electric Wizard - Dopethrone

[resaf]

REVOK is a scrub lol

[Casketshaker]

This record saved my life.

[xBallStomperx]

too fucking heavy!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[Dareifyoucan]

Hell YEAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH­HHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH­HHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH

[337lee1]

nicely done! cool video.

[HLITHIOS1]

I fuckin' love this band man!!!

"...the wizaaard..."

[BobTheNecrophiliac]

I listened to this song with headphones while I did my first shrooms, it was scary and awesome at the same time.

[jambassfunk]

@BobTheNecrophiliac thats ballsy man!

[NathanOfTuonela]

nobody else thinks its funny that the rapper covered the track dopethrone, which does kinda work on a hip-hop level for a title lol

[LaFaux13]

thanks guys

[PhillipThunderGrunge]

I wonder if Electric Wizard knows about this song being sampled in That fucking rap song...Lawsuit Anyone?

[fleshpi1e]

What song? I want to give it a listen and see if it does the Wizard justice. I know it's not possible, but it has piqued my interested anyways...

[PhillipThunderGrunge]

I think it's Trae- I'm Fresh......a pathetic song really.....If they used this you would expect it would be better....it's sad..but the upside...the person who suggested it probably has a good taste in music.

[PhillipThunderGrunge]

hey....did you check that song out? if so what did ya think?

[fleshpi1e]

Hahaha. It was actually pretty decent. He pulled off rapping to a song by the heaviest, slowest band ever pretty well in my opinion. I'm not a huge rap fan, but that song (well, the beat actually - I hope that's the only reason people listen to rap music) was pretty decent. It doesn't hold a candle to the original though...

Come stateside for a tour, dammit!

[coastmelter4]

WHICH RAP SONG??????

[PhillipThunderGrunge]

look down below I posted it already

[sirhonkalot]

@ PhillipThunderGrunge:

That would turn it form a rap into a rape song.

[RottenMuthaFucka]

Doom fucking metal, simple as that \m/

[dthmetalrox]

love this band

[rgsgt]

if you guys like wizard then you guys must like this watch?v=PyEwTM0n04c

[dthmetalrox]

fuck u

[jess16saint]

one word "FATTYS"

[godawefulll]

4:20 music!!!Yes!!!

[krookroorocket]

this band is so awesome high

[Caconymic]

@krookroorocket Hell, this band is awesome all the fucking time.

[MrKizer]

Ganja rocking da nation!

[Metallicazack]

Nothing better than hitting the peace pipe to some Wizard.

[HammarHeart]

ganjaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa­aaaa

[Asturiaherria]

muy buenos... auténtico doom. Para paladares, yo diría, de gran esquisitez. Nunca venderán millones de discos... es lo que tiene la musica no mediática.

[c4tze]

nice one =)

[llafthgiN]

ESPESO

[ironwizard76]

Your video is dope!!!

[nepentheandoom]

Pun intended I'm sure haha....

Thanks man.

[pimba75]

Looking all around, the world's a dream

to sum the discussion:

"Traveling to places that I have never seen

High up here is where I'm really free

Listen people, you've got to free the weed

Oh yeah"

[Dopethrone420]

Dopethrone is there 2nd best work, in my opinion Witchcult Today is the heavyest most huanting release to date, but hey EVERY Electric Wizard albums rules, that goes without saying

[nepentheandoom]

Witchcult Today heavier then Dopethrone?? That's a serious stretch in my book. I'll go with it being more haunting but its certainly not heavier. Electric Wizard's music today is so much more linear and refined then it used to be which detracts from the heaviness if you ask me. I miss the old days when it was just raw and fucked up....

[almightyjoey]

completely agree with you. Witchcult was my first cd i bought by them, and i've been working backwards. every one has gotten better and better.

[That667Guy]

Come My fanatics was still pwnage, but I think Witchcult was their best work since then, but again everything they do is awesome

[Bodacious468]

i agree come my fanatics is one of my favorite albums ever

[linus7106]

second you;

the Egyptians took away the psychedelic elements. (nothing against Ramesses)

[kochcurve]

why is electric wizard the greatest shit ever

[ConiferTreez]

This is an incredible heavy rock record.

Though not as relentless/organically crushing/epic as 'COME, MY FANATICS...", "DopeThrone" was nonetheless a skullcrushing Doom trip. I'd call it one of the most self-indulgent bash-in-skulls Doom Metal ever recorded.

"Come, My Fantatics..." is still their best release to date, and it stands as one of the top 5 Doom Metal albums of all time, but "DopeThrone" is up there in the top 10.

[tokabowla]

I'd have to say that Dopethrone is my fav for no other reason that the GROOVE on Dopethrone is just fucking SICK. I can't even wrap my mind around it.

CMF is really good to though.

[oneinfinity]

Holy Feedback ,yeah!!!!

[andtherewasblood]

I don't smoke too often, but when I do... this is the first album I take out.

[prodigalson56]

Thats a heavy riff! Rifftastic!!!

[daborus]

The government just wants to make some cash out of weed, as this other guy says, because it can be cultivated by anyone, it would not be profitable for taxes or stuff like that, so I dont think is going to get legal too soon man, fuck you all

[TheElectricWizard01]

most catchy intro ever.

[4EKAdeathbox]

Dooope priest prophecyyy

[Load1Bongs1Not1Guns]

DOOOPETHROOONE

[Memroch]

that is so fucking true.

[COBHC3000]

And sure its got its negatives ..but does it kill you? Not that ive ever heard or read. Yes if abused it can become a problem. What about the people who dont abuse it? people abuse alcohol and its legal? some people smoke a pack of cigs in one day!!!! and it is also legal. its all bullshit if you ask me.

[r3fotzirx]

o rly, carebear

[linus7106]

T total?????

[AIC69]

douche

[Memroch]

i love these guys, them and type o negative, thats all i need

[i8numbers]

Heard you on that, brother. Oh...I need some Pantera too, but....that's about it.

[Memroch]

little slayer every now and then ;)

[texasB666]

a lityle eyehategod every now and then ^^ =) we can go on and on huh :)

[RoyceEscobar]

Hell fuckin Right. The Gov. doesnt want you to think or make Plans to see through their Babylon. Just look how many People die on Alcohol or Nicotine. And it´s legal. Their bullshittin us. You should not be to young though. Then it can have some negative Effects I guess. But as long as you´ve got your Life under Control, everthings cool man. By the Way... THIS SONG FUCKIN RULEZ !

[Switchfifty]

Pot is not an addictive drug initially, but can become one over prolonged periods, but thats besides the point, EW FUCKING RULEZ

[seanconn11]

great tunes...fucking love this stuff...and for the weed thing...well...if you dont smoke...thats cool...if you do...thats cool...if your addicted...you are delusional man...just take er easy man...take it down a notch...like on weekends or shit...fuck...cigs are addictive...thats for damn sure...anyway...I dont konw why the youth of today doesnt write songs like these...fuck...they dont seem to understand where metal and rock comes from...fucking emo bullshit...whaaatever ...rock on!

[crazybill71123]

I am the youth of today and I write songs like this. Let's not say things we can't take back.

[corezero09]

the guitar sounds untuned

[tokabowla]

No, it's just the fact that it's THAT heavy. Trust me.

[andtherewasblood]

Someone needs to tab this shit for bass btw.

[crawlbat89]

I have some tab for guitar but their songs aint't to hard to learn.Just list to the song over and over and you will get the fell for it and know the notes after listening to it over and over.Until you are almost tired of hearing the same song.

[nyj1284]

lmao figure it out by ear wow if you cant do that give up on bass

[crazybill71123]

just take heroin. that way it doesnt leave a smell and its more powerful

[davidvenom]

more powerfull but it's also addictive...

[corezero09]

so is pot........

[Rabid1ne]

wat...your not serious about thepot thing

are you?

[corezero09]

I was addicted to pot, stop smoking you fucking potheads u will regret it one day like i do, dude when ure older u wont be able to keep an erction .... is that something yopu want, your mind will alter and think differently ... you tell me if its worth losing everything in your life just to get high....

[blupandagod]

LOSER

[corezero09]

c'mon man don't hate me :S:S it's wierd to fight over the net

[twmmay]

you cant get it up XD

[corezero09]

ya i can.... now i can, but the first 2 months i quit i had a hard time, and pot IS addictice, it's a DRUG, and it wouldn't be called a DRUG if it wasnt addictive.... right?????

[twmmay]

its not a drug, its a plant, the gov. called it a drug to scare people and put them off it, i know people who've smoked it a fgew times, then not smoked it for months. your confused

[Switchfifty]

Actually it is a drug my friend, any substance that chemically alters your body(mentally or physically), aware of non aware of it, is a drug. :)

Get your learn on lol

[corezero09]

I smoked it for 2 years i loved it, and still do, but it is a drug anything that alters someones mind is considered a drug, and if it get's you high it,s a drug, simple as that

[twmmay]

so its a drug, so what? best fucking drug there is, a gift from mother nature herself

[corezero09]

get over it..... it will ruin your life, i can't wait till that happens so i can say i told you so how old are you anyways

[meathead612]

Anything will ruin your life if you do it too much!

[corezero09]

true

[twmmay]

14. my brother has been doing it everysday for 7 years, and i only found out when he told me, cos he didnt change much, hes always happy and thinking of other people, always puts a smile on my face :) i also know like 4 other long terms users who are fine.

[corezero09]

trust me, one day the will buy weed that's caled with something and it will fuck them up....

[corezero09]

i meant laced*

[twmmay]

i know what you mean there, if it was legal, none of it would be laced

[corezero09]

they should make it legal

[Switchfifty]

That depends on who you are. If you'll control it or you let it control you. Weed is not the spawn of satan. It's just a man-made law that says it's illegal, not a natural law.

[i8numbers]

"anything that alters someones mind". Anything you do will alter your mind. The chemicals therein shift and release according to kind of program your brain is under. Food induces a release of chemicals in your brain to give you a certain feeling about it. Of course you still have to be careful. Just because it's natural doesn't mean it's good for you. Try digesting an Amanita phalloides (the Death Cap) mushroom. However...Weed is pretty awesome.

[corezero09]

it is pretty awesome, but i'm saying that doing it too much can affect you, it can catch up to you

[i8numbers]

Hey...It doesn't feel the same as it did that first time I got high, but...It's one of the few things that accomidate my natural lean towards escapism. It's not a flawless wonder plant, but...Maybe if our diets weren't so poor it wouldn't be bad at all. I'm freakin' high right now, so...Electric Wizard rules.

[corezero09]

niice

[Switchfifty]

true

[blupandagod]

ive never been addicted to weed, and if you have then you dont need to be smokin the shit, especially if you cant get it up.....LOL

[AtrumVerum]

well weed ain't physically addictive so its hard to get addictive, but its fucking nice to have after a hard days work

[blupandagod]

fuckin a bro

[zephanrae]

no actually its non habit forming in any way...delta9tetrahydracannibin­ol isnt addictive, in some strains of the crop there may be addictive substances but they are easy to avoid

[twmmay]

no it isnt, only to some people, it depends on the persons personality, pot is not addictive

[crazybill71123]

pot is not addictive... it's the greatest substance known to man.

[sebdumont]

have a big shit in your pants so that way nobody wants to get anywhere near you and that way they wont smell the pot smell on your close,what a stupid topic.

SHUT THE FUCK UP AND SMOKE YOUR DOPE!!

[Johal523]

For you dope smokers out there,what is a good way to cover up weed smell like if your goin somewhere but just smoked...?Shitloads of incense and cologne seem to help but never fully.

[PwntDharma]

I have a jacket in which I smoke and a jacket for everything else. I find switching between the two helps. Also mouthwash and eyedrops. That's it.

[Ministryrules]

Read what PwntDharma said. Its really helpfull

What i do is i smoke then take a shower. Thats only if your at ur house or a bros house.

[Fightingscars]

Mix tobacco in with the weed at a ratio of about 2:1 and have a cigarette or two afterwards- then you just smell like cigarettes.

[RocketRacer]

thats so retarded

[SirSmokey52]

It is actually done, a lot. Mixing roasted cigarettes in with the weed or the hash

(2 cigaretts:1 gram) makes it burn better and last longer. This is necessary for hash since it doesn't burn by itself.

[RocketRacer]

it also makes you smell like cigarrettes....

[Rabid1ne]

wat is a roasted cigaret?

[Frikkz1]

A cigarette that is heated with fire to get most of the harmful substances out of it. The tobacco inside becomes roasted and is used with hash.

[zappasmoke]

best thing is to use an empty toilet paper roll and put dryer sheets at the end, so when you smoke, blow through the sheets and it wont smell

[TheLobotomist]

That actually does work pretty well

[RocketRacer]

yeah thats the best thing ive found

[Der1metzger]

Probally the heaviest band in the world

[malibustars]

brilliant :D

[qzcancel]

wow thats heavy and fuckin amazin, these guys rock

[joelster23]

goddamn! First time listener, here, and these guys rule!

[grepakar]

This band is so fuckin heavy. They`re the best, and I hope they youtube themselves just to read all the positivie comments and maybe find back to each other for another record. I know the drummer plays in Crippled Black Phoenix nowadays.

[myownservant]

this band reminds me of 5ive (the dronedoom band), just blows you away. you dont need drugs to enjoy this.

[DavidCross]

Anybody who says EW made a better album before or since Dopethrone has their head up their ass. Anybody into huge doom check out Graves at Sea!

[BoNni3po0]

Hellz Yeah!

[Nieby90]

Fucking amazing BASS! LETS DIE

[catfish420]

'Wizard rules

The new one is beast as well, though Dopethrone and the first one are my favourites

If you like wizard let me suggest Sleep's Dopesmoker aka Jerusalem. It's also beast.

[Chrotisofus]

Didn't they make the longest metal song?

[grepakar]

sleep - dopesmoker is a two song compilation. The one song is about 60 minutes or so.

[rajrajenator]

I thought it was one song? Also, correct me if I'm wrong, but in some of Sleep's concerts, don't they play modified versions of it (longer and shorter)?

[grepakar]

That is correct. Dopesmoker is only one song, but the album you find it on, which also is called dopesmoker you find two songs. My fault.

[xxtaxidermyxx]

Boris have done some hour-plus drone-metal songs, too.

[jbj221]

Boris & Merzbow's Sun baked snow cave is 62 minutes.

Dopesmoker is 63 minutes.

Does a SunnO))) concert count as a single song? haha.

[UnholyMessiah555]

LOL xD

Awesome song. Dopethrone is one amazing album

[Pepsidoomh]

I forgot how heavy Electric Wizard were. Damn this is good. Anyway, have you listened to Sourvein, nepentheandoom? I'm pretty sure Liz is their guitarist, but their stuff is pretty hard to find.

[nepentheandoom]

Ya dood, I have a Sourvein video on my page actually...Liz used to play guitar for them back in the day but no more. Sourvein's one of those bands that doesn't seem very popular for whatever reason but I like em. "Will to Mangle" is an awesome record.

[robyn691]

these guys suck balls, hardcore balls!!!!!!!!!

[nepentheandoom]

Even though I'm not particularly fond of their latest effort I still think it's better then 99% of the drivel that most people seem to find appealing these days....Obviously you have a right to your opinion but I'd be interested in knowing what you listen to...It's pretty easy to say that a band sucks but why not take it a bit further and explain why you feel that way...

[robyn691]

all right well since you want me to expand on my  thoughts about electric wizard and said it so very comly oposed to other jerkoffs who just say oh your gay,much like i said about electric wizard. but anyways,i feel that they are not a very creative or origional band and have litle to no talent at all. my favorite band is children of bodm because they write amazing songs and are all amazing at what they do, these guys on the other hand just straite up suck

[nepentheandoom]

Fair enough, but you must realize that music is totally subjective. Lots of people (myself included) think that Electric Wizard are the greatest thing since sliced bread haha...I personally don't like Children of Bodom but that doesn't mean they suck. It just means that they're not my cup of tea ;-)

Welcome to the underground....

-R

[shuyasixsixsix]

Amen brother....Heavy assed Dorset Mfo's. I love 'em

[MRCHNK]

Fucking awesome.

[stuthedew0]

There is new material on it's way "WITCHCULT TODAY"

hail wizard coven dorset motherfuckin doom metal.

even boasting a 20 min organ led epic song.. Is the Real Wizard back??

[nepentheandoom]

I wish...I've heard the new album and much to my dismay it's not a return the Wizard of old. Decent album but not nearly as heavy as Dopethrone or Supercoven.

[blobirpinia]

this song is like a drug(i never take drug hehe)

this is the best metal band ever

but my favourite song of dopethrone is i the witchfinder

[nepentheandoom]

That's my favorite song off of Dopethrone as well. Just so bleak and heavy.

Top 3 Electric Wizard songs:

1. Supercoven

2. I, Witchfinder

3. Doom Mantia

Oh, and here is something that will hold you guys over until the next release.

Pre-Electric Wizard (1989-1994) Digi CD

Check the Rise Above site for more info.

[blobirpinia]

in your top list you forgot black butterfly:)

i have the pre-elctric wizard, i love the song lucifer's children, slow, heavy , distorted, as i like

[Flea817]

Funeralopolis FTW.

Yeah, I checked their Myspace. I could've sworn there was something new... Ah, well. Yeah, the last album was kind of gay. I think they had a few bad trips they shouldn't have been on when they made it. (Joking.)

[BongOfCthulu]

DOOOPE THRONE!!

[Flea817]

Have you heard anything off their upcoming release? I think they have some new stuff on their Myspace. I'm too lazy to check...

[nepentheandoom]

No I haven't. Just checked their myspace page and there's nothing there in the way of new music.

Really hoping that the new one is more along the lines of their older material. The last release just felt kind of sterile to me (with a few exceptions).

[toecutterr6]

Or like a sledge hammer and a cracked skull!

[Mrninjaster]

It never occured to me that weed and metal could be a good mix till I heard this song.

[Vargrocks]

I don't do weed, but they call it stoner metal for a reason dude. But anyway, that's a good revelation (I think that's the right word)

[nepentheandoom]

Weed and metal go together like chocolate and peanut butter.

[Mrninjaster]

and i apprieciate that now thanx to dopethrone

[nepentheandoom]

For and even deeper appreciation of how well weed and metal go together check out bands like Bongzilla and Weedeater as well.

[Flea817]

I like EW better. They're pretty much my favorite Metal band.

[nepentheandoom]

As do I. The additional recommendations were meant to further illustrate how well weed and metal go together to Mrninjaster who has recently had a revelation regarding this from listening to Dopethrone.

[toecutterr6]

They are recording a new album this summer to be released by the end of 2007! they are recording in analog and using similar equipment to what Sabbath would have used in the early 70's.

[nepentheandoom]

Ya, can't wait for the new record. I wasn't real thrilled with their last release but from what the Wiz is saying they'll be returning to their roots with the next record.

[Vargrocks]

Should sound interesting then. If they're going for a Sabbath sound, then I don't expect it to be as heavy as their previous releases. But it should be good.

[toecutterr6]

Oborn said the new album will be all about 'the riff!!' so that is encouraging.He also said there will be like a 20 minute organ solo which seems monotonous but maybe you'll need to be high to understand it?

[Vargrocks]

Either high or tired.

[nepentheandoom]

Organ solo?? Hmmmm sounds like we're in for some

sort of funeral dirge er something. Works for me.

I'm just glad to hear that they'll be going back to

the way of the old ones.

I like em better as a 3 piece and kind of wish they'd drop Liz. But since her and Oborn are

shagging it up I doubt that will happen anytime

soon.

[dpukyehar]

pure solid gold stoner metal!

[cosmicsuperstrong]

yes! i been waiting for someone to do this!! the live stuff sounded like shit. Do wizard in black next.

[indirectlyinvol]

One of the bests songs ever. On "dopethrone" album perfect vocal.

My favorite band.
