LEGACY REVIEW: Giant Squid – The Ichthyologist
With gelatinous form it escapes the grasp of a one genre categorization, and its grabbing tentacles move freely from genre to genre catching plankton particles from everywhere it moves.

There are many individually exceptional moments, but they don’t draw you away from the dark infernal majesty of the whole.
Black and roll meets psychedelic doom to create an off kilter stew of occult magical delights.
…pure crusty punk rock infused metallic joy.
What a monstrous statement these three songs make!
Listening to the album straight through is a workout, both harrowing and exhausting, but the payoff is very worth it.
The Top 50 release of 2019 according to Hayduke X.
Take no prisoners, no holds barred, realest of the real, capital D for Death, capital M for Metal, Death Metal.
What a year it’s been! There is no way a top 50 album is enough to truly express the fantastic year of music that was 2018. Nevertheless, check it out, comment, agree, argue, enjoy!
