[Read] NY Times on YOB and Dark Castle (#incu11)

July 14, 2011

The New York Times did an little music review about YOB (#incu11) who played Le Poisson Rouge on Tuesday night:

“When I last saw Mr. Scheidt, 16 months ago in Ohio, he was clean shaven and playing a Gibson Les Paul; now he’s bearded with round glasses, playing a new guitar made by Brent Monson, with a Hindu om symbol inlay. It has a narrower, cleaner sound. (If you think switching guitars is of little consequence, you’ve got the wrong idea. Tone is everything in this music.) The band hadn’t played in New York in six years, and though doom metal is a sub-subculture, the Yob audience remains small but deep. The room was full of beards and veneration.
