Since the first time I heard “Heroin Swirls” I was hooked. Opium Lord creates some of the heaviest, ugliest, but, somehow, catchiest riffs you’ll ever hear. Prologue-The Healer, Eye of Earth, Vore, and now Sherpa are all must listens. One of the few bands in my weekly rotation. Their music breathes and shudders mixed with virulent vocals. Deceptively technical. Deceptively addicting. Any new music of their’s is a cause for celebration.
