Los Angeles, United States (2001 – present)
Black Cobra is a doom metal and sludge band from Los Angeles, California. The band was formed in 2001 by Jason Landrian and Rafael Martinez (who was also the former bassist for Acid King).
After logging several years of experience with sludge metal icons Cavity and doom prognosticators Acid King, among other bands, New York-based vocalist and guitarist Jason Landrian and L.A.-based drummer Rafael Martinez began working in 2001 on a new project that would ultimately become known as Black Cobra. An eponymous EP eventually saw the light of day in 2004, followed by the full-length Bestial in 2006 and mini-album Feather and Stone in 2007, by which time the duo had developed into a vicious, super-distorted heavy metal machine reminiscent of Mastodon and High On Fire.

So your talking production wise, and im talking music wise here. Awsome.

im referring to how their production became much more sophisticated and, which ultimately made them sound more thrashy just like High on Fire. Celtic Frost went the complete opposite going from To Mega Therion to Monotheist. And i havent heard Tom's new group Triptykon yet except for their one song Shatter which was doomy as hell.

And by saying that I assume you never listened to Celtic Frost much.

They definitely follow a high on fire progression on their albums, at least production wise. First two albums were extremely sludgy and dirty, last two were very thrashy with clearer vocals.

These guys kicked ass in Minneapolis last night. Full of energy and super tight. Seeing them live definitely puts some new context to the albums.
