The absolute pinnacle of sludge metal. It simply doesn't get any better. Fuck Rogaine, my balding head grew into a glorious mane of hair with a single listen. Fuck erectile dysfunction, my penis grew into a 10" baseball bat with a single listen. Fuck a genetic inacapabilty of growing facial hair, halfway through this album I sprouted a beard I could trip over. Simply put, it just doesn't get any heavier. This album is a hunk of lead, dipped in bismuth, chained to the ground with platinum.
as you get to 21:53, as you sink lower and lower into the abyss youve been falling for a while now. In the bleakest depths you find a colossal being that you dont even dare to comprehend its size as it passes through the void. As the sound of it moving through the pressurized ocean assaults your eardrums you can only feel blessed that the leviathan pays no mind to your morsel vessel.
I've listened to that stuff while reading dune vol 1, and i must say, there is no better experience than this. I love this music genre so much, god bless sludge, doom, stoner and drone, the four horsemen of metal music.

It's like Pink Floyd but without the celebrity ego. Gives an out in a field vibe. I saw this comment 5 minutes in, but I couldn't cheat and fast forward, I'm committing to finishing this song in its entirety. I couldn't make it through Dopesmoker by Sleep, it was the same riff over and over. This had enough changes to be a whole album so it never tested my patience, Bongripper jams.
42:00 that feedback pulls you out of the water for air, only just to fall back again to the bottom of the ocean on your last trip to the abyss. i am wsy too high
Love this band and album, certainly one of the best instrumental doom bands around in my opinion. Love the production on this particular album, drums sound great, and love the riffage and guitar work/sound in general.
its a crazy journey! my favourite is the blissfull calmness halfway through 40 minutes.. and then ten minutes later all hell breaks loose!!! and the ride continues.. Dive into the reef!!!
This album is so deeply emotional to me. It sounds like exactly what I feel inside every single day that I cannot find the words to express. Endless amounts of pain and misery but still a glimmer of hope underneath the surface even though you know damn well how silly it is to get your hopes up about anything and how much it will hurt when you do and things don't go as planned. Fucking metal as all fuck!!!
It is ambient though, I think that's whole point. The entire purpose of this track is to build up an atmosphere, a sonic landscape and have you explore it. It's about setting a mood. Who says ambient can't be heavy?
its 1 track, quote taken from Bongrippers bandcamp "Album is 1 track, but due to Bandcamp file size limits, we had to split this in to three sections. If you are handy with Pro Tools, Cubase, etc you can make it one track if you like."
This is fucking amazing I wish most of this album had vocals it would actually make me fall in love with this band but because it don’t have vocals to me it feels like there is a piece missing otherwise this is fucking awesome I love how the guitar tone has a bit of Djent and Doom Metal tone hybrid just sounds absolutely devastating.
The first 7 minutes are a waste of time. After that it would be pretty impressive sludge/stoner metal but the fucking cymbals are mixed so loud that I can't enjoy it.

How is this Sludge you idiot?
Dunno… bismuth the band is fucking heavy… loudest band
@@CosmicHandOfDoom Agree, together with Suma. I love Pelican very much too.
"You can listen to one more song before going to bed"
Yeah, Metal is known for long songs, but this takes the cake & I fucking love it.
I AM listening to this before bed😂😂😂
Deal 😊
If it was 8 pm at night and it was about time for bed and you only had one more song to listen to, this would be the one to listen to.
One more song after this one ? ok it'll be Everb / E...! / Micro-E! by Wehrmacht 0:09 sec 😁

It's as if Lovecraft made this album.
We've gone too deep. Here the water is black
And muddy too..
Filled with resin it is. 🤘👽

I've been driving while listeneng to this composition and accidently switched playback speed to 0.75 . Really enjoyed it. Thx guys for your music!!

I'm listening to this while there is a huge thunderstorm going on right outside. Somehow fitting
+moidiotsavant1 COMPLETELY FITTING!!!!!!

Well there aren't that many really, and most of them are total shit to begin with (mostly cheesy retro 70's wannabe bands).
Belzebong is another good Stoner/Doom instrumental band, give them a try
its a crazy journey! my favourite is the blissfull calmness halfway through 40 minutes.. and then ten minutes later all hell breaks loose!!! and the ride continues.. Dive into the reef!!!
Sleep: let's make an hour long album that's just one long track
Bongripper: hold my Matamp GT120
bell witch on their way to top bongripper
But they all bow down to Boris
the eulogy of the great reef.
RIP
now there is only dOWN
Extremely underrated band
54:00 I think someone is knocking on my door
54:46 The bowels of Muspelheim erupt and scorch every inch of Midgard
54:46 might be my favorite moment in time since the Precambrian
thankyou for uploading this album back to utube!!
42:19 passage impacted me forever
Epitome of heaviness... 25:10
is 2024, this is the music.
Here we are together, you and I. Feels very desolate here does it not? Wish there were more of us
25:30 That is some good riffage
yeahhhh, what is that!? Badass

That's why we call it DOOM
"If you're going through hell, keep going." -Churchill
Synthetic Parallels get over it
u ok hun?
Same feeling mate, this song brings melancholia to me. You should do paddo's on this one, you'll see other universes while spacing.
30 minutes late to the set and their still on the first song
Somehow, i feel some strong emotions in this album
TripeX Foxshield what emotions?
We have billions of emotions, i cant really explain
TripeX Foxshield horny?
uh...
Bongripper gets me fully torqued.
Minute 41 onward ... fuck ! Twisted!!
I've been trying to find this for so long
This and Absolutego are probably the best debut albums from an artist in the doom/stoner doom genres.
This band has a lot of potential. Great song
It’s hippie killer, not hippy killer
1:05:25 that’s track 3 : worship on the album satan worshipping doom
Love this fucking album !
Nick merrill feel it?
Nick merrill WHY IT REPRESENTS THE FALL
12:45 Holy shit, is that a scream? So this actually has vocals?
Someone: asks for lyrics
Me: "AHH!"
🤘
This isnt an album, its literally one song
80 minute song
He says it in the description 😄
ohhhh, i can't buy this album anywhere on CD....oh lord have mercy!!!
+KweetnGinne found it on bandcamp!!
bongripper.bandcamp.com/album/the-great-barrier-reefer
+KweetnGinne i saw them like a year ago at the roadburn festival in the netherlands, picked up Miserable then.
+Sebastian Y (Sebs82) There's plenty of copies on Discogs too. www.discogs.com/sell/list?master_id=345117&ev=mb
+Steven T Miller cheers thanks for that!
Smoke da reefer in da corner laid low like the grand theft auto
Auf 2× wiedergabe geschwindikeit ist das echt heavy geil😤
Fucking heavy !!!! You just gotta fuckin love 'stonerdoom'
31:50 просто пиздец!!! Это ЛУЧШИЙ СЛАДЖ ЧТО Я СЛЫШАЛ!!! БРАВО)))
First 7 minutes of clean were a bit of a dull intro imo, and somehow since then 20 minutes have elapsed without a trace... This is some good shit
22:27
The set list for this band tho 💀
this was fun to listen to whiles stoned
My mom agrees, because she just hit the bong
Amazing ambient
It is ambient though, I think that's whole point. The entire purpose of this track is to build up an atmosphere, a sonic landscape and have you explore it. It's about setting a mood. Who says ambient can't be heavy?
Is this canonically 1 song entirely? I hear delays and different tracks starting after silence 🤔
It is 1 track, it is just split up as 3 on album releases, and not everyone can easily mix them all together.
in reality it is mote like 20min song looped the heaven out of it in passages in between
7:20 to skip past that fucking clean intro guitar that does change the same bar for...well for over 7 minutes
exactly. enjoy the fucking music
thanks the intro fuckin sucks
Thank you.
You guys need to smoke and enjoy the whole of the thing. Sex is more than fucking.
dude its a cool into. music is repetitive. what is 7 minutes. its stoner doom. gag on a dick
Time to check on the cat and go to bed.
How they can convince Indrid Cold to do the intro will remain a mystery.
"Still more proof, John Klein?"
Thx much..
This is longer than dopesmoker...
@@Freshjuices15 I'm so high
80 minutes well spent.
420 blaze it
Who makes their album covers? It's awesome.
StonK Think his name's Lucifer
StonK You know if a guy who represents himself with one of the greatest album covers ever calls your album art amazing, then you did something right.
That is some badass album art.
My mom painted this one.
@@pthibault630 sure bud.
Imo this song does not compare to Dopesmoker at all. Hung Bunny by Melvins fits better although not an hour long
I broke my neck headbanging to this
How is that possible??
@@LordofDiamondsMetal He can reach the floor while he does that ,I know I saw him.
could anyone, please, post timetags for this amazing album?
+KweetnGinne Different issues of the album list the tracks differently.
There is. Look at the album on Encyclopedia Metallum. The different issues of the album have different track listings.

25:10
80 minute song
Am I allowed to drink tea to this? How about creep around my local town at night whilst wearing a clown mask?
Put on a tutu and prance the streets in broad daylight! Metalheads are some of the nicest people you'll meet!
No you are not allowed to drink tea to this. Other is fine though
Tracklist pliz!
you hit play and wait for the song to end
0:00 - The Great Barrier Reefer
that's all the tracks
FTW
The first 7 minutes are a waste of time. After that it would be pretty impressive sludge/stoner metal but the fucking cymbals are mixed so loud that I can't enjoy it.
What kind of trash is this
Try some more extreme social isolation and crippling chemical dependencies and then you should be enjoying it.
Total crap.
