"... especially as Eternal Hails...... traipses its way through every retro-doom nuance this side of Black Sabbath’s self-titled debut."



I'm glad you mentioned this, hard agree.



Fuck, I love that album cover - this is going to be the best cover art of 2021

They are purposely using old recording equipment? Some of this sounds like it'd be pretty sick if it were clearer. A lot of the harmonics and details sound muted and lost.

I feel like if these elements were cleaned up on modern gear there'd be an element of sterility going on. We'll never know unless it's re-recorded to find out said gripe.

Honestly it seems like Fenriz and Ted are just embracing their influences and making whatever that makes them happy. Ever since The Underground Resistance they’ve been dropping awesome records that sound like they’re just having a good time, being the cool and chill uncles of the black metal realm lmao.

My one gripe with the production is that the guitars sound kinda flat. The tone isn't bad but it feels kinda thin

Some of their worst riffing which is saying something considering Underground Resistance exists.
