"Riffs on riffs on riffs. DRAKEN’s self-titled debut is filled to the brim with guitar that stomps, gallops, spirals, and a whole mess of other acrobatics. There’s a doomy undercurrent beneath the stoner crunch and punky Red Fang vibes, and the raw vocals bring it all home. It’s early yet, but DRAKEN is already making a strong case for one of the year’s top debuts."
