i personally find this album a masterpiece in a genre that's, in my opinion, over-saturated and pretty homogeneous.



but this was honestly the first funeral doom album i've ever listened to and it immediately clicked. everything else since has just been chasing the white dragon

"Tbh plenty of low rates in this thread are people that do dig other funeral doom"



i really don't get this but to each their own. I don't really know much else about the genre outside of this tbf

Agreed Norma



Yeah it's a lot more open and kind of warm, I guess? Feels more expansive than it does crushing

not enough to where I'm like oh fuck yeah. But again, I have such high regards for this album (easily a top 5 all time for me) that it sorta spoils the rest of the genre. i think the only bands to have come close are Disembowelment and Ahab

This is a 1hour and half track. Not for everyone. There s a lot of other funeral doom/ deathdoom acts that can engage other type of listeners (esoteric is fuckin immense), including other Bell Witch releases.

mmm i guess man. it could easily be argued that this "track" could be spliced up into 3 parts. and, I'm looking at the runtime's of Esoteric albums, and all are at or above the hour 30 mark

I get this can be the tits of contemplative funeral doom, I am also encouraging others to check how they fuckin riff on Longing, if they are not quite getting this somehow.

I have no stakes in the funeral doom debate but this is wonderfully hypnotic. I adore the second half of this. Its certainly something that you have to be in the mood to listen to.

I still can't get into this years later. It just has so much dead weight to it that I lose the mood. Think I'll probs try Longing as rec'd above.

It was but a mere fleeting consideration, I'll save the ruminating for higher stakes decisions like 'should I stop drinking now?'
