sautry79 love the artwork, dark crushing riffs, and blackened lyrics, definitely unique and one of a kind band, hope to hear more from this band, great work

mrdilligence Great example of sludgy doom done right. Just the right amount of death equals brilliant West coast violence.

Victor Aguilar Great Doom Metal. Definitely a band to check out, I dig their stuff. I am looking forward to hearing more from this band.

Michael Esquivel I like it cause it's fucken goood

Regnārs Breikšs This single has all that a growing sludge fan needs: slow riffs - check, sandy growling bass - check, claustrophobic drums - check, feedback - check, filthy vocals reminiscent of Charlie Fell - check.

Joe Owen Molloy amazing 10 minute crushing experience !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

lyrics

Vapid plastic whore
chokes the mind.
Mistaken virtue as a
vice.
This suffering is
deliberate,
it's how she knows
she's alive.
Upon her neck she
wears a cross,
A CROSS TO BURN

A man atones for his
sin, he builds an
altar.
A locus formed where
poison swarmed.
Since the provenance,
it's the catalyst, erect
the narcissists plight.
Upon that structure is
a cross.
A CROSS TO BURN

This withering light
The glorious night
The altar of bone
Upon you all
I see a cross
A CROSS TO BURN

Is it sludge-doom, or doom-sludge? Either way, it deserves my favourite epithet, i.e. "awesome". With the harsh vocals and heavy riffing, it reminds me a bit of Ramesses. I could have picked almost any track as favourite. There are no weak moments. The world needs more of this. Reuben Sammitch
