Album Notes & Community Reviews

Originally rolled out as a series of cryptic, two-song seven-inch releases spelling out the album's title, the Massachusetts band's tenth studio album is a towering monument to nihilistic metalcore. It slows down the tempo considerably compared to their previous work, embracing crushing, doom-laden sludge riffs and suffocating apocalyptic themes.
