Features drummer Jean Paul Gaster (Clutch, Bakerton Group) and bassist Jon Blank (Rezin). Wino's without a doubt one of the founding fathers of doom, so it's easy to assume that Punctuated Equilibrium would continue that thread. Instead, he starts things off with "Release Me," which sounds as far removed from Wino's legacy as possible. In fact, parts of it are more reminiscent of Clutch. But it's not all feel-good jams. Several tracks are fiercely heavy with two drawing upon the progressive sound of his last group, the politically charged Hidden Hand. And for those wondering where the doom is, 'Eyes of the Flesh' and 'Silver Lining' are as somber and downtrodden as any classic Vitus number. While Punctuated Equilibrium does summarize Wino's musical legacy, it's still more than a culmination of "greatest hits." He's pushing himself in new directions and to his credit, succeeds on all counts. It's been 25 years since The Obsessed's Sodden Jackal 7" was released, but Wino truly shows no sign of slowing down with Punctuated Equilibrium."

On HEADSPIN we offer heavy stoner and psych rock sounds by excellent contemporary artists.
