Now that "crust punk" seems to refer to Discharge clones, it's hard to see how Amebix fit into the picture. Part slow, ponderous heavy metal, part post-punk. Political, but tribal and medieval in atmosphere--hits the same buttons in the pleasure center as a B movie. Really nothing else like it.

4.5 superbGary STAFF | April 8th 23

Incredible! Despite it's "just" a crust punk release, this feels so progressive and complex...! Songs like "Largactyl", "Soils of Victory" or the title track... are all amazing. Heavy but playful riffs, groovy bass lines (+ that bass tone is really something!), simplistic punk drumming and finally: vocals which could really scratch and energize like battle roars - but not flawlessly consistent... like why ruin the first half of "The Darkest Hour" with those bad cleans? Anyway, still an amazing record.
