Review : CD

Norway’s SAGH is lean, mean doom n' roll that reaches out and grabs you by the throat. Olav Iversen - Guitars & Vocals, Thomas Tofthagen – Guitars, King – Bass & Thomas Lønnheim -Drums & Percussion have a tight, powerful sound that combines the best of melodic classic metal with the edge of stoner/doom. III boasts excellent production with the balance of music and vocals near perfection. SAGH is the kind of band that cites certain rock legends in their inspiration and those inspirations are apparent in their music. Loaded with hook-laden riffs, solid vocals and terrific songwriting, their third full length album is an entertaining listen from beginning to end. There are some songs that aren't quite as strong as others but that's true of virtually every CD.

SAGH shows a mark of musical brilliance in most of their numbers, although I did find some of the songs a bit repetitive and sometimes overdone.

88/100
