Deaf Lizard’s sound is a rough orgy of heavy fuzz rock paired with psychedelic and doomy ingredients that will hit you before you know it. Years of experience and the upmost worship of the forefathers of heavy rock lead the band to continue on their quest for stoner galore. While their self-released debut album „No Man’s Sky“ was welcomed wholeheartedly by the stoner rock community in 2020, Deaf Lizard will soon release their second coming „The Last Odyssey“ through Electric Valley Records. Despite the doomy title, the band has no plans to slow down after Covid. The new album brings with it seven songs that will melt every doubt about the band’s renewed vitality right off the listener’s face. With a more focused and developed sound, the band delivers the same energy you can expect from their live shows.
"The Last Odyssey“ sets off where its predeccesor „No Man’s Sky“ ended. Deaf Lizard have put their time off during the pandemic to good use, hence shaping their sound towards a more focused and punchy result. The seven songs of the album showcase stylistic varities ranging from heavy doom to psychedelic improvisation. Extensive songs like „The Devil’s Show“ and „Independent Terror“ hit you hard with slow grinding guitars and heavyweight drums only to make way for more straightforward heavy rock in songs like „City of Life“ and „Nuclear“. Opening the second half of the record, the mesmerizing „Lady in Black“ leads into psychedelic territory of the long-winded but captivating „Ape’s Odyssey“, an eight minute psych jam with lots of precisley carried out improvisation. The album closer „The Veil“ stems from early sessions for the first album culminating the album’s captivating energy in an ecstatic finale. The lyrics of the album losely follow humanity’s self-inflicted downfall and its aftermath providing doomy meaning to the album’s title „The Last Odyssey“.
Fans of bands like Monolord, Pigs Pigs Pigs Pigs Pigs Pigs Pigs and Black Rainbows will not be disappointed.
