It seems like the guys who wrote No Holier Temple took one too many caps over a couple of years and began attending sermons at the church of the Lizard King, because instead of an eclectic, mystical psychedelic folk record, we get a Doors-influenced psychedelic rock album with vague hints of what the band used to be. Don't get me wrong, taken at face-value, the album isn't half bad. Songs like the catchy and dreamy "Cosmic Truth" and the lovely "Green Gold" are really good songs, and no song on the record is particularly bad, but many of them just kind of go through the motions quite lazily. The vocals are good, as Kvohst tries to bolster the album through his croons, and does so on the good tracks, but ultimately can't save the underwhelming and bare tracks. Overall, it's not bad, merely okay, but it's a shame knowing that they're capable of so much more.

When We Are Death is the first album I hear from Hexvessel. It is melancholic and has a pessimistic atmosphere, however I found it melodic enough to give it some listenings. It is cohesive and interesting but it does not have a top moment. Without listening their prior releases, I think they can do much better. Recommendations: "Earth Over Us", "Transparent Eyeball", "Mirror Boy"

Jesus christ what happened to this band? It's like some kind of mad headworm has gotten to Kvohst and turned
all his bands to pure shit.

Finnish psychedelic folk rock. It's good, but not really my thing.
