A lurching mammoth riff monster trio, hammering their doom chords with a DC driven rhythm and an angular noise-rock intensity. A rare jewel of an album. Lazy reference points to get you started \/ RIYL - Kylesa, Fugazi, High On Fire, Don Caballero, Red Fang, early Mastodon...  The Ditch and the Delta formed out of three friends of nearly 15 years. While Elliot Secrist (guitar\/vocals), and Charles Bogus (Drums), have played in bands off an on over that span of time, it was the addition of Kory Quist (Bass\/vocals) that solidified the band and their sound. The band is often lumped in the doom category but their sound is most often described as sludgy math rock, \\u201cNeurosis as a stripped down, noise rock outfit\\u201d (noecho.net). The sound is huge an oppressively heavy. According to Hellbound.ca the sound is an amalgam of Doom, noise, and progressive metal; comparing the band to The Melvins, Eyehategod, Intronaut, Fugazi and Godflesh in the same review.\u003cp\u003eHives in Decline\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eFuck on Asphalt\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eSleeping Dogs\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eDry Land\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eTill Body Quits\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eMud\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eDread Spectacle\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Chalkys.com","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":55156451869057,"sku":"695247","price":13.98,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0056\/8043\/1219\/files\/61o-EV22qEL._SL1500.jpg?v=1767933874","url":"https:\/\/chalkys.com\/products\/695247","provider":"Chalkys.com","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
