Thursday: Black Tongue - Falsifier

     I've never really given much time to British sludge-doom slingers Black Tongue, but that might be something I have to rectify. Thankfully the guys are helping me get acquainted by providing a new old song for me to jam.

     "Falsifier" is the title track from the band's debut EP, but since said EP is getting the remix/remaster treatment for a worldwide release on Century Media, the song's making the internet rounds once again. And what a song! "Falsifier" definitely proves that metal doesn't have to be fast or especially technical to be heavy as fuck, while at the same time proving slow and relatively simple doesn't suck.

     Grab a few HUGE meaty riffs, play like 'em like good barbecue (ie: low and slow), season with a little bit of dark atmosphere here and there in the background, and you've got a recipe for some tasty headbanging. Think downtempo Gojira and you'll be headed towards the right track.
