Devour Every Star – Antiquity
This album is excellent – dreamy-in-an-unsettling-way and hypnotic – so it doesn’t matter what genre we call it, nor does it matter that it’s entirely instrumental.

As someone who doesn’t really listen to deathcore all that much, I see this as a release for people who want some crossover between deathcore and black metal.
Though each band clearly has their own style, the whole is as cohesive as it is crushing, exquisite as it is eviscerating.
Under An Eternal Mirage Projected In The Sky is the best thing I’ve heard from this project. That, of course, is my subjective taste, but this release hits me hard with each listen. I love it.
The resulting atmosphere is one of fury and loss, ringing swords and weeping widows.
Take in the chaos, the violence, and the noncognitive mayhem that is space!
Music is often somewhat visual for me, but rarely is it as viscerally visual as this album.
I find myself enthralled in the story of a family I’ve never heard of, a family who never leaves the house, but instead spends their days watching an Egyptian TV show that they can’t understand.
I’m still trying to wrap my head around it, though my heart was completely captured with the first notes of the first listen.
