<p>This superbly apocalyptic album has been massively influential on my songwriting over time. Concurrently harmonious, foreboding, and timeless, it encompasses nearly all the things that I really like about doom steel, with a heavy emphasis on the DOOM side.</p>

<p>I’ve nearly little interest in the innumerable imitators they’ve spawned, however Meshuggah themselves are such an interesting alien-machine-like entity, I take heed to them very often. Selecting a favourite is hard, however this album is the one which I in all probability return to most.</p>

<p>I am keen on this document, a comeback of kinds from the legendary doom forefathers. It’s menacing and determined, with a contact of melodrama and rawness that I’ve by no means heard anybody else replicate nicely, and although they’ve by no means been a technical band, what they accomplish right here by way of simplicity and vibe is gritty perfection.</p>
