I have a feeling they have much more potential. Let's see where they go here.

P.S. Nice birthday present for the Ex-Galactic president.

The special 36-page 19cmx19cm digibook edition limited to 500 copies looks insanely cool too. Who wouldn't want 36 pages of lovecraftian art!

I know that I said that they're overrated but the new songs are pretty fine and makes me want to listen to everything they did once again, to see if it finally grabs me.

Just got the booklet in the mail today, it looks really great.

The music is also very good, feels more "black" than before, I'm pleased.

Phenomenal stuff. These guys and Regarde Les Hommes Tomber are my favorite in the genre ATM. Both from France too..

Didn't know what EOD is actually for until I saw the physical album. Makes it even more mysterious and interesting. And a what an awesome physical release the mediabook cd is, totally unreal.

Spun this a handful of times but didnt get the hype. Sounds like any atmospheric black metal to me, maybe a bit more melodic.

I dont remember enjoying their previous records this much. Sounds great and those chug-chug DMish riffs work perfectly for them. Wish they had more of them.

Didn't give this as much attention when it came out as I should have, but it's a pretty tight and big sounding little record. I'll have to revisit their previous one for a comparison as I can't remember shit about that one now.

I like their second album best, but all three albums are pretty great. This one might be the more riffy album, while the previous one has more eerie melodies that cut right through the mix (and my soul.)

I'll have a jam on the first two tomorrow then. My soul could do with being penetrated.

Tekeli-Li is my favourite too (and this is why it's the only one I own in physical format), but all three of them are great.

Yeah they haven't put a foot wrong yet it seems. Good live too if my drunken memory of them is accurate.
