Album Notes & Community Reviews

A massive breakthrough for the German quintet, masterfully synthesizing Gothenburg-style melodic death metal riffs with crushing, sociopolitically charged metalcore breakdowns. The album notably juxtaposes this dark, aggressive intensity with sombre, neoclassical piano and string interludes composed by 脫lafur Arnalds.
