OBELYSKKH: Full Album From German Slugesters Streaming At Stereokiller

Stereokiller is hosting an exclusive stream of White Lightnin’, the second full-length from German quartet OBELYSKKH.

White Lightnin’ is a roaring tour de force of catchy, flowing sludge/doom with just the right amount of atmospheric properties to counter its skull-shattering low-end assault, drawing from pure filth through psychedelic soundscapes into postrock and back. The output of OBELYSKKH is crushing but it also breathes some kind of repetitive mantra-like ambition, which clears the air here and there and thus declines total negativity.

Go forth and rock the hell out to White Lightnin’ and catch up on more OBELYSKKH at Stereokiller RIGHT HERE.

Amidst tours and live performances throughout Germany and abroad since their 2008 inception, White Lightnin’ follows-up OBELYSKKH’s long-time-comin’ debut Mount Nysa, which was released in 2011 via now defunct German label Droehnhaus, nearly four years after the band’s formation. Following the immediately incredible response from the doom/sludge scene it received, the band decided  against a massive gap until the next album, and over the turn of the year into 2011 set up camp with Billy Anderson (Sleep, Neurosis, Mr. Bungle, Eyehategod, High On Fire, Melvins, etc.) to capture, mix and master their new work.

White Lightnin’ was released on CD, LP and digital download this week via Exile On Mainstream in the UK & Europe and will hit the streets in North America on Tuesday October 16th.
