hypocrisy - hypocrisy
soilwork - a predator's portrait
amorphis - queen of time |

07.15.19 | love that Dark Lunacy rec Nazz. such a great album. pretty emotionally powerful for a dm record too |
Nazzadan
07.16.19 | Yeah it's got a lot of emotion and more symphonic elements than most melodeath I've found without crossing over into melo/power territory. |
