Album Notes & Community Reviews

The Canadian blackened doom band's final album was released posthumously following the tragic, sudden death of frontman David Gold just months prior. Consequently, the record's polished, melodic gothic metal serves as an inadvertently profound and incredibly poignant meditation on mortality and spiritual alienation.
