Xibalba (2012)

8.0/ 10

“Southern California's Xibalba drags listeners down to the "place of fear" the band's name references, combining the heaviness of doom and sludge with the aggression of hardcore punk and even metalcore. Sunn O)))'s Greg Anderson shows up on a few tracks, too.”

Favorite tracks: NO SERENITY, LAID TO REST, COLD, THE FLOOD, LUJURIA, HASTA LA MUERTA

Least favorite track: IF I HAD TO PICK, MAYBE SOLEDAD. I FIND IT TO BE ONE OF THE LESS DISTINCT TRACKS, BUT MAYBE IT'LL GROW ON ME. SHRUGZZZ

When this Pomona, Calif.-based band sticks to the conventions and motions of both hardcore and doom, the blend can be exhilarating; at its best, this is a huge-sounding record.
