NPR is now streaming online Cormorant's new release Dwellings in its entirety at this location. The album will be independently released worldwide on December 6th. NPR has named Dwellings the best metal record of 2011 and goes on to say: "an emotionally and musically complex album which wrestles with our desperate and sometimes violent attempts to secure a place in history.
