We LOVED their most recent, "Cheat The Gallows" so I had to go back to their previous here - and it is more of the same. I would recommend "CTG" as a place to begin w/ this band, though, but "Hex" is whole lotta fun. Mix Pink Floyd, Jellyfish, T. Rex, early 70s Bowie, classic-era Deep Purple, Sweet, ELO, Van Der Graaf Generator, early Black Sabbath and Kings X and you will get an idea of what is going on here and it is much more melody-driven than this list of influences may sound, too. "3 ½ stars. If you take a gander inside the 2007 reissue of their 2003 release, Hex, you`ll see four impressively hairy gentleman, striking a pose (in front of a mammoth cross, no less) straight off the back cover of an early-`70s Black Sabbath record. As a result, it may be tempting to pass off Bigelf as one of the countless doom metal bands that have made a career out of merely copying Master of Reality. But dig a bit deeper, and you`ll find tracks that show "the elf men" have studied their Beatles -- or perhaps more succinctly, ELO -- such as "Rock & Roll Contract," and even a nod to Pink Floyd on "Bats in the Belfry II." But make no mistake, Bigelf are indeed Sab-heads, as evidenced by such delightful metal plodders as the album-opening "Mad Hatter," as well as "Sunshine Suicide" and "Carry the Load.""-AMG.
