Description
Released in 2001 alongside 'Seminar II', 'Seminar III: Zozobra' presents Old Man Gloom at their most panoramic and uncompromising. A single, seamless 27-minute composition, the record unfolds like an unbroken journey through the band’s primal post-metal landscape. Suspenseful opening chords linger with intent before colossal riffs and layered textures emerge, forming a sound that is as crushing as it is expansive. Metallic yet organic, brutal yet strangely transcendent, the piece embodies the band’s ability to merge punishing heaviness with moments of startling beauty.
The midsection collapses into chaos, with siren-like guitar lines and relentless one-chord pounding creating an atmosphere of pure sonic assault. For nearly ten minutes, the listener is immersed in turbulence before the music erupts into one of Old Man Gloom’s most euphoric climaxes—a searing wah-drenched solo that channels raw rock catharsis through a post-metal lens. This balance of abrasion and release makes 'Seminar III: Zozobra' not just a listening experience but an endurance ritual, rewarding those who brave its extremes with moments of unshakable transcendence. It remains one of the band’s most daring statements: an experimental epic that distills heaviness, chaos, and bliss into a single sweeping vision.
