Southern Flame are a metal band from southern West Virginia that combine elements of doom, sludge, and thrash into their sound. This is a review of their 2007 album Whiskey Metal. The disc itself actually comprises two separate recording sessions with two different line-ups not unlike Napalm Death's Scum. Tracks one through eight are the newest songs with an at that time new drummer, nine through sixteen a previously recorded album titled Alcoholocaust with the original drummer, and the final two songs bonus tracks. The shift in quality brought about by this could be seen as a problem, but when you view all tracks after number 8 as bonus as was intended it clears that up.
