Crowhurst are one of those bands with a frighteningly prolific discography. With so many albums, EPs, collaborations, and splits I was fairly dubious as to whether any of the actual music would hold substance or quality. Fortunately, Crowhurst prove with this self-titled full length that they mean business and should be judged by the same standards which we place on all other professional groups. While the stylistic approach varies quite heavily throughout the band's discography, this album falls quite nicely within the classification of "black metal." However, Crowhurst's varying influences do make appearances on this record, with quite a few post-metal elements seeping through the cracks along with hints of psychedelic roots. Read more ›› |
