Eager to not feel left out, Denmark’s Oxx has submitted their own entry in the form of The Primordial Blues.

Sludge, with some groove, and progressive lick of guitars or piano. The singer reminds me a bit of Randy Blythe on New American Gospel. But as far as sludge goes, this is a rather atmospheric release, I'm mostly just listening to the gritty sound. The powerful bits, melodic licks and instrumentals are just there to regrab your attention. As a results the songs don't stick in your mind, they are a bit samy, but the whole experience is pleasant
