"Sabbath / Pentagram / Cathedral worshippers proceed to the Temple of Doom, where 8 seasoned covens of downtuned amp witches and warlocks assemble for black mass fuzz bass, desecrated sludge riffing and screeching stoner sermons. 8 hours of ritual headbanging awaits thee – make sure your chiropractor’s on speed dial."
