With the 2010s nearing their close, the burgeoning and relatively new blackened sludge metal style has already expanded into a considerable diversity of approaches among its practitioners. Some are vile and bludgeoning, others more restrained and even a tad melodic at points. Wolvhammer have always seemed to be the one band that sits somewhere in the middle.

Here we go again with this blackened sludge thing. As any style evolves and gains more practitioners, it inevitably becomes more varied in its delivery, and Wolvhammer are standing as an example of this. Separating themselves from more filthy contemporaries such as Coffinworm and Dragged Into Sunlight, these Americans are a lot less harsh than some of their peers, a fact that, in regards to their latest album, can be both pleasing and displeasing.
