I'm really digging this, especially the tracks "The Forest Church" and "The Ancient Ways", I really like the Ancient Druid theme behind it too. I'd say it's probably more stoner than doom, they were definitely high when making this anyway. Regardless, it's such a quality release and the best in stoner metal I've heard this year

Nice album. I get big Ghost vibes from it, and I don't remember Green Lung being like this.

The Ghost vibes are really clear. Perhaps it's a bit too obvious, as after one listen that's all I could hear. It makes me want to listen to it again though... I played the first album 2-3 years ago and don't remember them sounding like this.

There was a horrible local band growing up called Green Lung and seeing this pop up is giving me PTSD.

I've upgraded my score to a 9 as it's clearly one of the best albums of 2023 for me.
