Album Notes & Community Reviews

Continuing their prolific output, the anonymous Dutch collective further refines their unique blend of harsh black metal and uplifting, synthesizer-driven post-punk. 'The Long Goodbye' prominently features shimmering, 1980s-inspired keyboards that float above a relentless barrage of blast beats and agonizing shrieked vocals. This stark contrast between major-key melodies and extreme sonic aggression defines the record's intensely passionate, depressive atmosphere.
