Saw a photo of Sandahl Bergman and Arnold Schwarzenegger training for "Conan the Barbarian." Viewing it, I think you'll understand why my mind made the jumps that it did.

Jackals' Feast Spins Dark Yarns Rooted in Soulful Americana

Here at Doom and Dead we shine a light on underrated doom, drone, and psych releases that deserve more attention. This month’s pick is NJ doom outfit Jackals' Feast. 

Jackals’ Feast aimed to play straight-up doom metal… but strange things happen when the blues runs in your veins. Like whiskey aged in an oak barrel, the music took on the flavors of the band’s other interests. Horror and gothic Americana leeched their way in, and the resulting brand of doom metal sounds like nothing else. The band’s debut album, Lost in the Forest and Tormented by Demons, is a collection of tragic tales, each more hopeless and tortured than the last. Now let’s grab a spot by the fire and take a swig of what Jackals’ Feast has to offer. 

The album opens on Prayer to Crom. Caveman beats lead us into this epic ballad. The song is constructed from slow, lumbering riffs scraped raw with bluesy vocals. The band conveys all the despair and resolve of the barbarian’s struggle on a frigid mountainside. The vocals ooze with pain and betrayal. Energy builds and that overdrive kicks in, rocking us out to the finish. 

The fuzz has rolled in. With the title track, Lost in the Forest and Tormented by Demons, we find ourselves alone in the woods caught in a hopeless situation. This 8-minute behemoth is the cornerstone of the album. It’s a grim plodder with a dense atmosphere and riffs guaranteed to trigger stank face in 9 out of 10 doomheads. Some legendary noodling on the strings drives the stakes even higher. Eventually, the drums abandon the track and we float through a hypnotic drone.

Dig Your Own Grave is true to its name.The monstrous riffs take on a little more twang, framing the vocalist’s resonant voice. It’s a one-on-one execution in the woods with no means of escape. The bluesman croons about swinging a shovel for your own burial pit. It’s heart-wrenching, gravel-gulping doom slathered in BBQ sauce. Mashed Potato Johnson would be proud.

For Death and Glory is a call to arms in the face of certain doom. The orcs have charged the gates and your walled city is falling around you. Faced with the annihilation, you no choice but to battle onwards. Galloping riffs and throaty cries spur us on to both glory and destruction. 

With Blood and Black Magic (Tower of the Elephant) is the sorrowful saga of a being who once soared the cosmos, but is now trapped and tortured on Earth. Jackals’ Feast creates an ambiance of suffering. The haunting track cracks open near the end, offering a glimpse at the protagonist’s searing rage. A spell is cast and vengeance is taken for a lifetime stolen. 

Get ready for another sleepless night struggling under the burden of the unknowable. The Crushing Weight of the Infinite is an out-of-body journey beyond place and time. Fuzz is cast over the landscape like starlight. Hulking riffs drone on in boundless space. The protagonist slides back into his body, unfulfilled and suffocating under the enormity of his incomprehension. The singer’s evocative storytelling seems to channel Eddie Vedder at times. It’s a powerful lamentation you won’t want to miss.

These songs are vignettes from the lives of characters who lost it all. It’s crushing doom metal informed by a variety of other genres and rendered with a fuckton of atmosphere. Amid the gloom, Sabbathian riffs trudge hand in hand with soul-splitting blues. Go check out the album. Failing to shove this bad boy into your earholes would be a mistake.

One of the craziest punk shows ever was a ‘97 gig of South Bay affiliated band Crom, which took place at the Blythe St. Warehouse, Van Nuys, CA.

 The band formed in the early ‘90s as part of the powerviolence/thrash/metal scene and their chaotic gig became an epic piece of punk history after turning into a complete pandemonium involving noise, drugs and the band’s friend Bart throwing a couch at the audience and on the band as well, as one can see in the above video (actually an edited clip which includes my favourite parts of a 14-min. video originally uploaded on Vimeo by Nick Strauser and found here: https://vimeo.com/120178159)

According to his description:

“Everyone I have talked to that attended this show have two things to say: that was the craziest show I have been to, or I can’t remember much that night. Huge reason you get these two answers is cause someone brought PCP to the show and decided to share it. 

Honorable mention to the band’s friend Bart the ECW wrestler that is super charged up, moshing, body slamming, ladder moshing, couch throwing, drum diving, etc.”

Please Welcome DEHISCENT to Blackhouse Ltd.

The ties between hardcore punk, metal, and doom have been very apparent throughout the years. It seems as though it is not surprising when you find that the same people that grew up on bands like Black Flag, T.S.O.L and Minor Threat could also tell you all about St. Vitus, Sleep, Melvins, Fu Manchu and countless others. The community is vast, and in a lot of cases the crossover is a biproduct of members cutting their teeth in the punk scene before transforming and shifting direction for the sake of keeping things evolving. Seattle, Washington's DEHISCENT is no exception to the rule.

Blending the best elements of hardcore, metal and doom to present a heady and brooding experience, Dehiscent features ex-members of some prominent Seattle-area bands. Influences across the spectrum, Dehiscent melds the straightforward thoughtful grooved-out heaviness of Sabbath, Cathedral and the Melvins with the depraved and scowled elements of bands like Eyehategod and the old Pessimiser Records bands like Crom and 16, and Grief. A listening experience that truly leaves its sonic mark among the heavy music community. We've posted about them in the past, but we here at Blackhouse are proud to officially introduce Dehiscent into the fold, with their inaugural release coming this Summer. Keep an eye out for more news soon, including preorder dates, US tour dates, and more!

I haven’t been to the gym in months, due to the plague. First two months I spent weeping about lost gains. But then I discovered calisthenics and by Crom, I think this is a game changer! I’ve never really done calisthenics, but I was surprised at how goddamn hard it was. I consider myself a reasonably fit guy, but after 15 minutes of burpees and pushups I was close to death. I highly recommend the US Marine called Iron Wolf on Youtube. No nonsense vids with great workouts you can do at home without any equipment. I might actually cancel my gym membership. I reckon if I get a pull up bar and some powerful resistance band, I can train at home (except for running, obviously). Using body weight to train is more trad and at home you can also train nude which improves strength by 5-10x.

Take the Iron Wolf pill here: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCBUo6dgGR82QOfidtpNRQww
