Album Notes & Community Reviews

Structured conceptually around the ancient, liturgical rituals of the Catholic Church, the Bristol-based sound designer crafted an overwhelmingly majestic piece of cinematic drone. The three-part album slowly builds from suffocating low-frequency rumbles into terrifying, heavily distorted crescendos meant to mimic the overwhelming terror of the divine.
