Album Notes & Community Reviews

Fusing a dusty, cinematic spaghetti-western aesthetic with the gloomy grandiosity of gothic rock, 'The Nephilim' is intensely atmospheric. Carl McCoy's gravelly baritone vocals and the band's dense, swirling guitar delays build a sombre, mystical soundscape steeped in occult mythology.
