This sound is HUGE for a two piece. I find it hard to believe at times...The guitarist makes use of looping pedals/tunings with extreme efficiency, giving them a thick, constant sound. The build-ups are immense, the melodies subtle, and when it unleashes its VERY powerful. There is only one album with vocals (my least favourite), but mostly they rely on the drive and consistency of the music. Did I mention its a fucking two piece!?
I'm not sure what genre they would fit into...Progressive doom/drone is the best I could describe it (referred to as melodic sludge/drone/doom on metal-archives). Though I feel like a douchebag for adding to the already ridiculous amount of sub-genres and feel like I'm getting caught up in semantics already :facepalm:
Anyway, I uploaded some tracks to sharehub as its the only place I could find on short notice. If anybody knows where I could host them permanently I would gladly upload again.

Jules Verne's Dream - http://go.sharehub.com/shared/de6a69d5-33d8-4902-ae90-3d159a60900f
I had a real hard time with track selection. Tried putting up a few that showcase the different styles they bring out. So many good ones I wish I could upload more
I highly recommend fans of any genre to check them out. Metalheads would probably dig it moreso than others, though I wouldn't call it conventional metal. Not by a long shot...So hopefully it will appeal to a broader audience.
