Floor-Dove


..and the latest installment of bragging rights record scores. Today I found myself with an old friend selling records on my day off and enjoying overcast gray weather all day, riding my bike around my favorite resort town. And best of all, a copy of FLOOR - DOVE on GREEN swirl vinyl. Its a No Idea release, so keeping up with the different colors is almost impossible. Green is only 303 copies, we have blue at the store too. Awesome record. Outrageously heavy, downtuned doom masterpiece. The story of the album is pretty neat too.

"The entire second side of the record is inhabited by "Dove", an eighteen minute torrent, replete with rivers of feedback and the signature FLOOR double guitar stagger and punch. Welcome to FLOOR’s legendary, long-lost first album, recorded in 1994, but cryptically, mysteriously never released... until now! Be warned: this is raw and direct, pulverizing and intense, with melodic undertones and a dark groove building and exploding! Your ears will never be the same! " - from no idea
