Album Notes & Community Reviews
Comprised of just four incredibly lengthy, sprawling tracks, the French outfit's third album is a masterclass in post-metal pacing. It utilizes lethargic, heavily down-tuned doom riffs juxtaposed with sparse, highly suspenseful atmospheric passages to conjure a hypnotic, apocalyptic dread.
