Fistula - Ignorant Weapon
Review by Ashis Kumar Jain
Fistula's latest album, Ignorant Weapon, has been met with high praise from fans of sludge metal. The Ohio-based band has been around for over two decades, and their experience shows in the powerful, raw sound of this album.
The opening track, "Too Many Devils and Drugs," sets the tone for the rest of the album with its heavy riffs and aggressive vocals. The lyrics deal with addiction and self-destructive behavior, themes that are explored throughout the album.
The standout track on Ignorant Weapon is "Promiscuity Ingenuity," which features a guest appearance from Eyehategod's Mike IX Williams. The song is a slow burner that builds to a crushing climax, with Williams' vocals adding an extra layer of intensity.
Fistula's sound is unapologetically abrasive, but there are moments of melody and even beauty on Ignorant Weapon. The instrumental track "Purgatory's Prophet" is a haunting, atmospheric piece that showcases the band's range.
