"Proof positive that you don’t have to be from warm climes to ooze out quality sludge metal, the quartet fully indulges in their Mastodontic and Baron-ish tendencies as they set fire to everything in their path." - Decibel Magazine

"...the ability of Pyres to take control of the music and create a feeling of epic bliss through aggression. This album seems to get better and better after each listen as new bits and pieces of the intricate power of this album are realized which only increases the likability of this stellar release. Take my word for it; you will not be able to listen to this album only one time, I challenge you to try!" - Metal Bandcamp

"All that I do know is Year Of Sleep is simply a brilliant debut album that the band should rightly be proud of. Canada’s new breed of Sludge Metal Overlords are finally here!!! – Ignore them at your peril." - The Sludgelord

"Year Of Sleep is six songs in forty minutes, all balanced somewhere between low-slung rhythmic thickness and ascending swirls of dueling guitars. It's all here, dudes. Rub the murk on your gums or drift with the stoner sensibilities; surge and snarl or wail and wander." - Heavy Planet

Medusa Crush Recordings recommends:

Doomed & Stoned in England
by Doomed and Stoned Records

Apart from being a near-legendary modern regular compilation of all metal/rock that's slow and heavy, D&S goes to England and has a fine spread of not just M.C.R. alumni, but other indie crusher acts Medusa Crush Recordings

Split with HELL
by Primitive Man

How do you describe a contender for EP of the year 2019? By playing this one over and over again. In terms of extreme metal, very little competition to challenge this darkened jewel for that title. Medusa Crush Recordings

HUATA - Lux Initiatrix Terrae
by HUATA

A crying shame that this now-defunct band from Rennes, France had composed (nay, forged) a missive of grandiose doom so captivating, it will be years before the greater masses realize it. Glorious! Medusa Crush Recordings
