2000 – RISE ABOVE
Produced By ROLF STARTIN
1. Vinum Sabbathi
2. Funeralopolis
3. Weird Tales: Electric Frost / Golgatha / Altar Of Melektaus

6. The Hills Have Eyes
7. We Hate You
8. Dopethrone
9. Mind Transferal
If you like your metal deep, loud and as heavy as can be, then Electric Wizard is just the band for you. This British group has been pouring out the sludge since their 1994 self titled debut, and they have not stopped. But it was on their second and third albums, 1997’s Come My Fanatics…and 2000’s Dopethrone that Electric Wizard cemented their place of importance in the world of heavy music. The band was a trio at this time (only singer/guitarist Jus Osborn remains from the original lineup), and their powerful mix of stoner rock and doom metal is something to behold. Dopethrone is magnificent and loud, and is as great as any metal album of its time. Which is truly saying a lot. This is the record that put Electric Wizard on the map to stay.
This band isn’t afraid to stretch out instrumentally…four of the tracks here (including the bonus track “Mind Transferal”) run over ten minutes long, filled not with soloing, but with deep and powerful landscapes of terror and doom. Witchcraft and the occult are common themes here, and this record is, indeed, a frightening one. Osborn’s vocals are eerie and back in the mix instead of in your face…it’s the music that’s the star here. This is not a record with hit singles, and you won’t hear any of it on the radio, and I don’t think that these guys care about that at all. Dopethrone is a fantastic piece of metal that does not rely on speed or screeching guitar pyrotechnics. And you probably won’t ever be moved to sing along with it. But it’s a truly great metal album. A must have. [First added to this chart: 08/07/2022]
