Album Notes & Community Reviews

The official debut from the Finnish quartet immediately established their signature brand of profoundly melancholic, doom-infused melodic death metal. The sprawling compositions rely heavily on atmospheric acoustic interludes, crushing mid-tempo riffs, and Niilo Sev盲nen's deep, commanding growls.
