After a two year hiatus and after the fallout of YOB mastermind Mike Schedit's ordeal with the lawsuit that befell him with his previous band Middian (which Schedit formed after disbanding YOB in 2006), forcing Schedit to end Middian in turn, it was inevitable that Schedit would resurrect YOB with a vengeance. Known as one of the most respected and heaviest bands in doom metal today, YOB are known to create some of the most gargantuan, monstrous, and epic sounds in doom metal respectively. Along with the legendary band SLEEP, YOB were always considered the heaviest doom metal three-piece ever and already have quite the massive repertoire at their disposal. Over the years, YOB have gained quite the reputation with their signature and distinct style of epic elongated crushing atmospheric sludge doom, and now, with their comeback album "The Great Cessation", YOB have undoubtedly churned out their heaviest and best album in their storied career. With the addition of new bass player Aaron Reiseberg joining Scheidt and longtime YOB drummer Travis Foster to round up the reformed YOB line-up, "The Great Cessation" is a time-stretching, timeless, and unearthly slab of monolithic doom metal art. Produced by renowned knob pusher Sanford Parker (PELICAN, MINSK, NACHTMYSTIUM, THE GATES OF SLUMBER etc.) in the band's hometown of Eugene, Oregon "The Great Cessation" sees YOB in 2009 much more epic, heavier, darker, and undeniably louder than ever. Ultimately, "The Great Cessation" will unveil itself as the doom metal monument of 2009. |
