4.0 excellent | Bedex | July 16th 20 | Man if this were better produced it'd be monumental. It's not the end of the world but you do feel like the prod hurts the experience a bit. The ambient intro and outro tracks are great, although the latter feels a bit too long. Then 2 offers a fantastic sample platter of everything the band can do: you get FoE crust, sludge, black metal, post-metal vibes, and it all flows surprisingly well. The track is overall bonkers and the transition into 3 is a masterclass. 3 is also great, but by min 4 struggles a bit and annouces a dip in quality in the middle of the album. 4 is a simpler track and is fine but feels far less marking than 2 or 4. 5 picks it up again with a super cool buildup into a great explosion that makes you really wish the prod were fuller and better. 6 has a nice explosion too, again hurt by the prod, and reinforces the impression of the outro track being excessively long by having a protracted conclusion itself. Fantastic potential especially shown on 2, but I feel like they can do even better things. 3.75

3.9 excellent | Erwann S. STAFF | October 17th 19 | This deserved more recognition in 2010, and it deserves some recognition now. Since it's crushing blacky crusty sludge metal, it could be linked to the Fall of Efrafa clique (sound-wise). But FoE are the best, FoE is life, so go listen to FoE.
