I noticed this thanks to the review and was excited to hear some new Lovecraftian extreme metal. Unfortunately this sounds too messy including the vocals so it was hard to find any good parts. There is some instrumental songs that were okay. Fortunately this was pretty short album as even though there is 13 songs, it's only 35 minutes total. Better to listen some Sulphur Aeon for my Lovecraft fix

Thanks for checking it out. It also took some getting used to for me. It's messy and insane, and that's what kept me coming back to it to discern the music behind the chaos. Give it a couple of more tries if you want - it might grow on you

Thanks for the heads up! I might do that if I have the time

Raw, sinister, chaotic with a slight crust punk vibe to it is how I would best describe this. There are several moments here and there that I find impressive, the creepy keyboard and synth sounds mainly, but as a whole it doesn't quite work for me, I guess I find the production slightly off putting.

Enjoyably unhinged sound
