Sons Of Otis – Paid To Suffer (CD)

Canada's Sons of Otis have spent decades operating deep in the underground, building a devoted following through sheer sonic commitment, tuning low and playing slow in a way that owes as much to Black Sabbath as it does to the narcotic drift of early stoner rock. Paid To Suffer captures the Toronto trio at their most relentlessly heavy, a record for those who believe volume itself is a spiritual practice.
