I noticed you were playing it the other day and did my research... From the samples I could listen, this sounds fairly appealing and, anyway, I love when BM bands stray from the orthodox sound.

Thanks for the review, Goat. I liked their first album, and thanks to your review, will be checking out the second one too.

I like both albums but rarely in the mood for it.

What mood is that?

I've heard good and bad things about this band, I guess it's time to check out. Good review Goatsheep.

The mood where he gets on a soapbox in late 19th century Russian garments, and chants about the impending death of capitalist pigs. That sort of mood

The sort of mood for twenty minute tracks with violin and psychedelic breaks in my black metal and semi-Shining-like piercers. I've been listening to -core pretty heavily since checking these albums out.

Might get this, bit put off by the length being the same as the first album, that one had its moments but boy did it drag on for way too long.

This album is so haunting and such as a ghost in ancient Victorian castles follows you and messes with your psyche. Potent and sumptuously built, tasteful and grand.
