actually it's hard to pick favs on this, the whole thing is solid and flows really well. those last 3 tracks tho, oh man.

Album Rating: 4.5

they all rule but probably,

5. Synthesized Instinct

4. Anchored to the Inlayed Arc

3. Infrared Horizon

2. Ash Eclipse

1. Vacant Explorer

That first 'big' riff on the opener, god damn
So nice and frantic

Album Rating: 4.5 | Sound Off

I was especially into the title track but whole album was just so damn good. I'm shocked they topped their last album. I think they could potentially become the new forerunners for quality DM tbh.

Album Rating: 4.5

you mean they are one of the forerunners for quality dm already

Album Rating: 4.0

"Who are they comparable to, Game? Any album you'd rec from them?"



late response so sorry for that. not sure who I'd directly compare them to but to generalize their sound it's basically a really technical chaotic variant of black metal without really falling in that deathspell omega dissonant chao category. curiously my favorite albums of theirs are literally everything in the left hand column on the band page here, while everything in the right hand column is more in the solidish category

Album Rating: 4.5

how could they be the new forerunners of quality death metal if theres always been quality death metal though? especially recently with bands like Ulcerate, Portal, Flourishing, etc.

Album Rating: 4.5

just from last year that blood incantation album last year was grouse as well

Be'lakor's Vessels was one of the most delicious melo death albums i ever heard

They may not acceptable as forerunners just yet, but this is probably the kind of quality push into dm I needed.

I haven't been able to get into the bands you guys just listed as much as this or its predecessor.

you need to bump the debut's rating boy

Album Rating: 4.5

Fuck it, I'm bumping my rating

@ Crypto. I've been enjoying it more since this came out, which is weird, but I still like this better.

@ Elliooooooot, Yesssssss

Respect to main songwriter Dan G here. I also liked the AB mark he left on the last Revocation with Monolithic Ignorance.

i'm a little out of the loop; has there been anything better this year?

Album Rating: 4.0

jac i think this one of your best reviews

ty dearest Mort

And the only 2017 albums that top this so far are the new Sunless and Stile Antico

Album Rating: 4.0

Sunless' new new is ridic good yeah. Better than Colored Sands imo.. And i only say that because of the heavy stylistic similarities.

Album Rating: 4.5 | Sound Off

Ooooh, Coloured Sands comparison, eh? Gonna check the fuck out of that then.

Album Rating: 5.0

it's super Gorguts-y yea but Colored Sands is better

CS is definitely better, without question.

Finally got to jam this in full, excellent effort. Really love the shifts between dissonance and melody.
