Description/Reviews: 

On record, these Germans are of a roaming sort. Although generally found in stoner metal, it's with progressive purpose that their sound traverses neighbouring styles of space rock and stoner rock in a sweeping mix, and one that is differentiated from the sub-genre sheerly by its scope. For the band's fourth album, the foundational strength established is its engaging and centralising rhythm; a methodical pace runs throughout as consistent drumming and inventive percussion frames what is an expansive conduit for psychedelia.
Refugeeum's psychedelic aspect is approached from a number of angles, drawing from psych rock contexts as much as metal of the stoner persuasions, resulting in apparent variety and irregularity amongst its tracks. The arrangement is unusually diverse in execution, and freely ranges between passages dominated by the metal rhythm section, to those in which such recedes to take full advantage of a purer application of its broad psychedelic elements. As much can be found imbedded and layered in the album's shortest riff enthused numbers all the way to its lengthiest outing in "Run To The Plains."
