lyrics
The story of the architect and how he built his church
________________________________
Part 1 - The Vision
-------------------------------------------
I have seen it in a dream
A palace to exalt the angels
A monument to the God in Heaven
with spires that seem to touch the clouds
Upon the hill where the martyrs fell
A place of worship will stand
The steeple's shadow across the sky
A spear for the hearts of the unbelievers
Scores of the young and old must break their backs and be crushed beneath the wheels.
But the Lord is good and merciful and the work will stand one thousand years
A blessing from the Scarlet One
Rejoice and give thanks!
But the first of those across these steps must perish in the flames
Part 2 - The Work
--------------------------------------------------
Piling the dead and filling the trenches
Grinding their bones to make from them mortar
Brick upon brick and stone upon stone
Whatever the cost the work must continue...
Forty years of endless toil
By the Grace of the Holy Fiend
This cursed place of worship and
horror will stand therein a thousand years

An outstanding Extreme doom death album, in the best tradition. The funerary atmosphere reminds of Evoken ('Centuries of ooze" bears striking similarities, for my delight). It is overall sharp, dark, hypnotic and unrelenting. One of those rare convincing new bands that hold proud the legacy of the biggest names. Bertrand Marchal

never been a big death metal fan but this is actually super accessible for the genre, has fun concepts, and personally i'm always a fan of albums with short tracklists and huge runtimes (for individual songs) Great time, good jumping on point for newbies too. alienasu

Late 90's BM worship, but it's also a lil more than that. This album takes the best elements from the scene it's inspired by and mostly avoids the worst of it; the song-writing is well-written, it's performed with passion and fun, and the production is raw but isn't lo-fi. (i.e. it doesn't obfuscate and/or suckass).
Tl;dr It's safe but high quality BM. Recommended. Rabbit
