Just because you're knees-deep in the swamps of death doom doesn't mean you can't experiment with progressive and technical compositions. Slimelord show how it's done.

Excellent. More swampy 20 Buck Spin death doom in the veins of Worm, Dream Death and Spectral Voice.

Wow what a great album! I was expecting this to be a lower quality Worm tbh but it's definitely not, the last three tracks in particular are fantastic.

They're in the vein of Worm and Spectral Voice but have a slightly more complex (even progressive at times) structure. The second half of the album is much better imo, the last track especially.

For those that don't know, 3/5 of the members in the band play in Cryptic Shift, which might explain why this particular slab of XXBS death/doom has an unexpectedly proggy slant to it
