Yeah, this is just not for me.
Sitting through 15+ minutes of tortured screaming with some chugs or rung out notes to finally get to something interesting is too much for me.

Consuming Lies is my fav track here because it goes rather ambient and has an interesting section around the middle.

I will say, the album sounds like the wasteland that is pictured on the background of the album cover. Really desolate sounding.

Well you can't really fault someone for not being able to get fully into these guys. It's an acquired taste for sure. For people like myself that do like this kind of stuff, these guys are masters though.

What's strange about putting a lot of time into an album I love?

27 minutes is pretty standard for this style.

especially considering that Eye Of Solitude disbanded earlier this year. This is what the genre sorely needed. Esoteric provides in spades

Only had the energy for the first track right now. It was enough to make me want to experience the rest for sure. Tortured vox on point.

This is kinda what I hoped black metal would sound like before I actually listened to black metal.
