This album is a hellish experience, damn good for a lonely night under the moon. Nice bump, completely forgot this album.

Wow dont know why I had this as a 2.5. They combine dark ambient and the dissonant dso like sound really well. Especially "Consummation"

agree but i wish people would stop using dso as a touchstone for all avant-garde bm like this is sufficiently different from their music imo

this is pre cookie cutter atmospheric bm but it's executed (near) flawlessly.

Consummation has become my go to track for a midnight jog round the suburb

DSO really don't sound like VBE OVdeath. Black metal was always dissonant anyway. I think Immortal's Pure Holocaust is a source of allot of the sound. I would argue DSO had their own sound from kenose onward. Their work is much more mathy than VBE. Many people would say they were extremely derivative of VBE or Gorguts but I disagree. And yes, Akhlys are not like dso. I just use them as a point of reference. Its like namedropping pink floyd in a review for Amon Düül or any psychedelic band.

Need to listen to this again. I remember enjoying it at the time, but I was also undergoing a huge atmo-black binge at the time so this kind of got shuffled out.
