Album Notes & Community Reviews

Standing as a founding pillar of the British 'Peaceville Three', the Yorkshire band's debut full-length pioneered the gothic evolution of extreme metal. The harrowing integration of classical violin and orchestral keyboards into agonizingly slow, crushing death-doom riffs established a uniquely romantic and funereal soundscape.
