This has been a remarkable year for Doom/Stoner/Sludge Metal releases and this EP is another winner from Admiral Browning.The album starts off with "Vortexer" is a conventional way by Sludge/Doom standards before it explodes into different beats and assault of slow,brutal riffing.A great track but then things get even better with " Ol' Martini Man" which has a more aggressive approach based around tried but true Sabbath meets Pentagram style riffs and arrangement.This track is a monster that doesn't let up from start to finish.Equally good is the next tune "No Good Stones" which has more of a heavy blues feel with a stoned out mix to the track that adds to the smoke filled bar room feeling the song pushes out.Next up is "Speaking in Tones" which another major highlight,a riffing tornado of a track that is relentless to the eardrums.While every track is different from each other,the EP is a exercise in fuzzed doom and sludge.The whole thing is over before you know what hit you which is a pity because this just makes you want more.Can't wait to hear a full length from this band that has a pure Doom Laden,down-tuned sound that never lets up. 9/10
