Carrying elements of doom and sludge metal, Mass & Volume doesn't have so much staying power going for it - which is a bit of a drag since it's an EP, nonetheless. "Red Tar" is as dark as it is crushing, but that's all there is to the track; the one preceding this is hardly what anybody would call 'sonically mean-spirited'.

This is not Pig Destroyer. They should really stick to the breakneck speed stuff.

Coming out of their element and sitting on this thing for the greater part of a decade, Pig Destroyer shows that when they are in the mood for doom they can crush it. Is it grind? No. Is it good? Very much so.

As a stand alone piece in their discography, this is pretty great drone/doom metal ep.

The second song is slightly better than the first, but overall this album is not that good at all, especially not since we've come to expect nothing but greatness from Pig Destroyer.

The title track surely has a bleak atmosphere, but songwriting-wise it is just a really boring 19-minute doom metal song and below the skill level of a band that has records like Prowler In The Yard and Terrifyer under their belt. The second track Red Tar too is a pretty middle of the road sludge metal cut, and definitely not substantial enough to save this EP from falling short. I'm actually flabbergasted that a band like Pig Destroyer can manage to make these genres sound so empty and uninteresting.

...so PD gonne drone...I can take this...I can take this...this fusion of post apocalyptic doom with the hardcore attitude is pushing me vibes from Pulling Teeth, which I very much like.

I kind of struggled rating this. It's some solid doom and some cool material from Pig Destroyer that further proves how progressive they can be musically, but i don't know if i'll return to this EP anytime soon.
