Pharaoh Overlord #1 is the debut album by Finnish experimental rock band Pharaoh Overlord. It was released on CD in 2000 by Ektro Records.
The album features three members of krautrock-influenced rock band Circle indulging their love for stoner rock.Review at www.aural-innovations.com All the tracks are instrumental and follow a basic model of hugely distorted, repetitive riffs. Although Pharaoh Overlord were to move away from this sound in subsequent albums, it remains the cornerstone of their live performances; the song Mangrove appears on both Pharaoh Overlord's live albums, The Battle Of The Axehammer (Live) and Live In Suomi Finland.
