4.5 superbImperial | October 30th 10

a soon to be classic, pulling influences from all corners of extreme music to create one of the most unique albums in years.

4.0 excellentBedex | 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

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.

While the whole album is mostly awesome, the ambient sections are the best.
