If you’re an adventurous sort, this album is for you. If you’re not, well you will be by the time you’re done listening, because this album is for you anyway.
The members use the various styles of metal as different mediums in their quest to create their artistic statement and are not limited by one single metal trope.
Like a pulsating globe of razor wire and broken glass, the album chases you down intent on psychic destruction.
The next time someone asks you to explain what death metal sounds like, just play them this album. They will likely be hooked. I know I am.
