4.0 excellent | Brandon Scott EMERITUS | August 14th 16 | One of the most dense, challenging, and ultimately rewarding albums I've listened to this year. As a combination of black metal, drone, and doom, there is a lot to digest here, and to be honest it isn't easy. Not one track falls under the 10 minute mark, and there are many layers of music to dig through. However, the depth makes this release come alive, and the dichotomy of slow churn and blistering rampage is utilized here at its best. This is daunting and horrifying, but gorgeous and wondrous within the same breadth. It's an album that thrives on contrasts, with each opposing section accentuating the strengths of the other. Yodh was meticulously constructed, and I recommend you listen to it with the same attention to detail, because if you do, you'll be richly rewarded with an excellent album.

4.0 excellent | BallsDeep | November 20th 16 | Yodh is a vile concoction of black, doom and drone metal which offers surprising diversity and dynamics without compromising a relentless atmosphere of suffocating darkness. A fairly challenging, albeit rewarding listen; recommended to anyone with an affinity for music of exactly that description. Not recommended for anyone looking to softly ease themselves into extreme metal. Just in case the cover didn't give that away.

3.4 great | Erwann S. STAFF | May 3rd 22 | An infernal blend of black, doom, and drone, Yodh at times loses itself in its meandering songwriting, with riffs continuing their paths without true conclusion. It's a shame, because the atmosphere and overall aesthetic are top fucking notch, but it fails to be much more than that.

4.5 superb | rage11111ro | March 15th 21 | struggled a lot to get passed the first scream. I am into extreme vocals but that was just to intense. But I insisted and now it works like a charm. Crushing, bone chilling, fat sound. Very unique.

seem...Mizmor's sophomore is really a beauty beast of a piece m/ last track is relentless af

4.5 superb | BenCee | August 15th 16 | This is one of the best albums of 2016 and one of the best doom albums of the decade thus far. Yodh is a monolithic joining of doom, black metal, and harsh noise/drone/feedback madness.
