Is Sheer Hellish Miasma the best album by Kevin Drumm? BestEverAlbums. com brings together thousands of 'greatest ever album' charts and calculates an overall ranking. This album At A Glance. Sheer Hellish Miasma by Kevin Drumm (2002) Overall rank: 6,682nd. Accolades: Top albums of 2002 ( 156th ). Top albums of the 2000s ( 1,565th ). Best albums of all time ( 6,682nd ).

All of the vetoed names had their own je ne sais quoi, I'll admit. And yet the decided upon title conveyed the sensation succinctly, as the vagaries of the "Miasma" in the final title somehow qualified this intense listening experience. Back in the winter of 'ought-two, when I first heard this Kevin Drumm disc (he was still into Norwegian death metal in those days), a blizzard had just hit the city and snow was flurrying and thick on the ground.

If Sheer Hellish Miasma is equivalent to Drumm's dentist's chair, then these subtle textural changes are his mild anesthetic, providing just enough distraction to keep the focus off the mounting tension. It's a disarming trick, the effects of which are fully revealed when the album's 48 minutes of unrelenting caterwaul yield to its fourth and final cut, a gorgeous drone piece named "Cloudy," which seems triply sublime after so much sneakily accumulated momentum and aggression.
