Khang - Premeditated

Full on grinding rock is how Khang describe themselves and this demo shows that they're not far wrong.

Supremely heavy, in a doomy, Obsessed/Electric Wizard kind of way, this is gushing with downtuned guitars and determined riffing. Also recalling doom stalwarts Cathedral and Orange Goblin, particularly in the strident, confident vocal delivery, this is excellent stuff, especially 25 or 64 with it's dirty stoner groove and Airlock which fairly rampages along.

There are, however some fairly dodgy lyrics on the track Gypsy which ramble on about a "little shack"and "being in love with a Gypsy Queen", and the song does stray into power metal territory which is a shame as it possesses a monstrous main riff.

Very promising. (7)
