Some of you may recognize Autolatry from one of our Clandestine Cuts articles of the past year, where one of my colleagues reviewed their Of The Land EP. I decided to take my time and listen to the previous album and EP of this young black metal band before diving into the depths of their sophomore album. That's when I met an inconsistency... Of the good kind! Man, they threw me a curve ball.

Black metal on its own kind. Not a bad effort at all.

This track is fucking awesome. From the relentless and dissonant beginning, the Bathory-like clean vocals in the middle, and that beautiful, indredibly cool bridge that evolves into a great post-black-like crescendo.

Pale Dishonor is probably one of the coolest black metal songs I've heard in a while. Definitely gonna check this out.

Checked this album out after someone name dropped them in the Blackbraid II thread and it's not bad at all.

I don't think that in terms of melody, production and song writing it's as strong but there are some terrific performances and ideas scattered.

Like others have mentioned ^^ Pale Dishonor is brilliant. The drumming, Bathory esque vocals and mid song break down are top notch.
