Album Info

Íslenskt Drunrokk, umfjöllun um Quadriplegiac.(review) ''Hingað til hefur hið svokallaða drunrokk/ dómsdagsrokk/sorarokk (,,drone'', ,,doom'', ,,sludge'') ekki verið áerandi hér á landi þó að geirarnir lifi góðu lífi erlendis. Plastic Gods bæta þar rækilega úr, en nýútkomin er platan Quadriplegiac , þriggja laga ópus þar sem ekkert lag er undir tiu mínútum. Útgefandi ásamt sveitinni er hið nýstofnaða Molestin Records;Níðþungt, alíslenskt og spriklandi fjörugt merki. Aðdáendur sveita á borð við Sleep, Eath og Sunn0))) verða hér ekki fyrir vonbrigðum; tónlistin skríður áfram á hraða snigilsins en af miklum þunga og þetta er prýðilega útfært hjá sveitinni. Í hljómnum og yfir þessu öllu saman er þá eitthvað séríslenskt sem hífir verkið upp. Hljóðfæraleikur er góður og vil ég sérstaklega nefna trommuleikinn. Söngur Ingólfs Ólafssonar(úr dauðarokksveitinni Severed Crotch) eykur þá skemmtilega á myrkrið . Hljómsveitinn verður seint sökuð um að finna upp hjólið, enda varla tilgangurinn, en á heildina litið er þetta vel heppnuð frumraun'' Arnar Eggert Thoroddsen Morgunblaðið 3 1/2 stjarna 4.mars 2009.


THE EVIL INQUISITION issue 9:review ....Iceland is currently having a very hard time of things what with the economic crisis biting down so hard on the countries financial sector, but things are never as bad as they seem and luckily the tiny arctic island of geysers and ice palaces still has the time and resources to export fine upstanding epic drone doom metal direct from it's capital city of 'Reykjavik'. Although only three tracks in length, 'Plastic Gods' and their debut full length 'Quadriplegiac' weight into the metal bout with some heavy duty doom epics under their belt and a grim perspective on the world around them, maybe the credit crunch has effected them worse than I feared!! Now down to the music and apparently 'Plastic Gods' have a drummer by the name of 'Hossi' but he doesn't feature until six minutes in to the opening track, this has to be some kind of record! As far as drone doom goes this band has everything, long winding songs with no end in sight, down tuned riffs that bang out at a snails pace yet seemingly destroy all around them and an all round sense of apocalypse, catastrophe and blackened minds collaborating to form one single doom laden entity hell bent on making the world an even more grim place than it already is. That is 'Plastic Gods' and their oddly entitled new release, maybe its a band time to be a tourist in 'Iceland' right now as you definitely do not want to incur the wrath of this five piece drone doom militia!!,, [7.5]

  Even as a debut this album can easily be ranked among the top Doom metal albums of late; Plastic Gods fully deliver with their unique version of lingering buildups that are always followed by blasts of energy, droney excellence and crazy hooks, most of which tend to replay themselves in your head at the oddest of moments.
  
  So if you like epic soundscapes of drone and doom you've come to the right place.
