Album Notes & Community Reviews

Belgium's Univers Zéro continues their terrifying exploration of chamber rock with 'Ceux du dehors', slightly increasing the tempo of their pitch-black avant-prog. Driven by oboe, bassoon, and fiercely angular percussion, the entirely instrumental album weaves incredibly complex time signatures and suspenseful, heavily atmospheric tension inspired by H.P. Lovecraft.
