A Patient Man

by Cult Leader

A Patient Man cover art

Produced by Kurt Ballou, the sophomore full-length from the Salt Lake City quartet is a terrifyingly aggressive fusion of extreme metal genres. The album remarkably bifurcates its sound, contrasting utterly devastating, chaotic mathcore blast beats with incredibly mournful, gothic slowcore passages sung in a deep, Nick Cave-esque baritone. It stands as a profoundly bleak, masterfully dynamic exploration of misanthropy and despair.
