I don't think this band is really melodic dm as much as they are death doom with a touch of melody lol.

I mean, there's tons of melody here, but definitely not a melodeath album imo.

Yeah, you’re right and yet I can’t really explain the difference lol. But I know that’s correct.

PS it’s funny how much their sound actually changed over time, but it was gradual and not that noticeable. But if you go back and listen to Fulfill the Curse, the difference is stark! That album sounded a lot like Acid Witch, but their new stuff doesn’t at all.

idk there's some strong Dan Swano vibes here to me. it's very lush without just being pop music with screaming lol.

this band's covers are so good and I'm glad they haven't been relegated to bonus material.



speaking of covers, the artwork on this and tritonus bell is perfect.
