Wow, thanks for this Goat! I was ready to consider this album of the year material through the first 4 tracks, but the rest left much less of an impression on me. Still this is fascinating material, and the early Katatonia reference (musically I hear that 10 minute oddity Scarlet Heavens from the Saw you Drown EP in 'Your Skin Won't Hide You' in particular) is spot on.

I knew you'd like this! Yes, terrific stuff, keeps drawing me back to it for more listens. It almost needs another album to smooth out the roughness but I think the roughness helps make it as disturbing as it is! Have you heard their previous material? Much closer to death metal but with a real originality and atmosphere to it, definitely one of my favourite discoveries so far this year.

Yeah, I like it bit better upon repeated listens. Definitely think they were fans of Dolorian as well as early Katatonia, which means they have great taste. Nothing But the Whole is excellent in a very different way too.
