Album Notes & Community Reviews

Drawing inspiration from Jules Verne's '20,000 Leagues Under the Sea', the German nautik doom metal band plunges into crushing, aquatic atmospheres. The record balances massive, slow-moving death-doom riffs with eerily calm, melodic post-metal interludes to perfectly capture the suffocating pressure of the deep ocean.
