A refreshingly unique take on death metal, offering playful riffs and outstanding bass. Unpretentious but undeniably technical, with ideas that are allowed to really, fully develop, in a way that breeds an almost psychedelic atmosphere without reliance on any tropes of the ‘psychedelic’ label. The mix is pristine, the songwriting is excellent. This is absolutely fucking fantastic.
The most by the numbers album you will likely find in the area of early 2000s style traditional progressive metal.
This sounds like Keor dropped acid and wrote down and recorded everything that came to his mind during a long night in a cave somewhere.
An unlikely but outstanding combination of Opethian grunge and blackened mindfuckery that’s honest, soulful, and relentlessly engaging.
A grandiose melodeath anthology of Lovecraftian tales.
Wonderful dissonant tech death with enough elements from black and doom to be fresh and exciting
