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.
There is great depth of feeling on the album that seeps through the cracks of this raging entity.
Part I and Part II combine to give a visceral look at the demons whispering in Wrath’s ear.
I’m still trying to wrap my head around it, though my heart was completely captured with the first notes of the first listen.
If we had a rating system, 10 out of 5. We don’t, so just let this shovel you around the face and see if I’m wrong.
Plenty of doomy blackness that will give you the stank face and bob your head to the evil flames that seem to grow higher and higher as the album unfolds.
From the thunderous energy of “Coil” to the chugging thwacks that accompany the heart-wrenching lyrics of “Ruse,” this album has a little something for everybody.
This whole album sounds like a fast-paced summer road trip (complete with all the flat tires and sugary gas station snacks) wrapped up into 11 tunes. Turn it up, drive fast, and roll the windows down!
The six tracks account for about seventeen minutes of runtime, every second of which twists and turns your psyche in delightfully disturbing ways.
Elements of symphony, black metal, doom metal, and folk metal blend together in dark, melodic, bombastic package of weird and interesting music.
