Shivering King And Others Dead Meadow Rar
Shortly after signing with Matador in 2003, Dead Meadow self-produced 'Shivering King And Others' in the basement studio of the DC Pirate House over five months and during a busy schedule of touring. Along with the heavy rockers and bluesy numbers as on the previous two records, the band went deeper into the psychedelic realm, with chiming.

When Dead Meadow enters altogether different territory, however, is when things get really interesting. In particular is the very acoustic ‘Shivering King’ which gets all like Nick Drake meets The Doors. To say it’s ‘far out’ wouldn’t be totally off the mark. On their third album, Shivering King and Others, Dead Meadow continues to prove just how apt their name is, crafting vast guitar epics that have all the beauty and strangeness of a frostbitten field at midnight.

Artist Background:
Dead Meadow, a 3 piece from Washington DC, plays heavy blues-influenced stoner rock. They have a similar feel to Kadavar, though it feels more doom-y at times (as it trudges along for some of the songs in a style very reminiscent of doom). They have put out 8 full albums and one live album.
My Thoughts:
This album is a lot slower and introspective than Abra Kadavar, yet still has a very similar feel to it. The songs are slower, more bluesy, but still very heavy. There’s lots of use of the wah pedal, and many of the songs are swung. Like Abra Kadavar I think this would be good driving music, though it’s more attuned to a leisurely cruise through the countryside than a highway. My favorite songs were I Love You Too, Everything’s Going On, and Shivering King.

What did you guys think?
Do you think the comparisons to Kadavar are fair? Driver joystick usb. I'm not well versed in Dead Meadow's discography, but the throwback sound seems similar to me.
