A release under the stoner/doom umbrella that DOESN’T include the words “witch” or “bong!” It does include the impressive talents of the one-man project CLYDE VON KLAUS. “Moonbeams” is surely heavy enough but that’s not the draw here for me. Nah, I’m blown away by the variety of the songs and the infectious melodies. I wasn’t expecting the “Screaming...”-Priest melodies on “Concede” nor the absolute “Fluff”-with-vocals beauty of “Bring Back Your Smile.”
