The dense, suffocating atmosphere of H.P. Lovecraft's stories has finally found a good sonic equivalent - death metal with quite a bit of black thrown in the mix. Add expert execution and appropriately oppressive production and you get a winner. Daniell's picks | More picks ›› |

This album is freakin' awesome, highly recommend it. And that album artwork has got to be some of the best album art EVER!

Release date moved to January 11th (according to the band's profile on fb), so we have the first really noteworthy album of 2013

Written by Paz on 01.01.2013 at 19:54 Where did you see that? It's already available on iTunes since 12/28.  Edit: I found the post but I think that is for purchase through the label only cuz it is still available for purchase from iTunes. https://itunes.apple.com/us/album/where-black-ships-sail/id587442515?i=587442618&ign-mpt=uo%3D4

Account deleted Written by psykometal on 01.01.2013 at 21:37 The physical CD release is Jan 11th but was available via digital download on the 28th of Dec (this according to their Facebook). I guess it's technically a 2012 release then.

This sounds like it was performed underwater, very heavy stuff.

Written by psykometal on 05.01.2013 at 22:42 Can make it a little difficult to distinguish all aspects of their sound but yeah that density to the production makes Cthulhu feel right at home.

Written by R'Vannith on 06.01.2013 at 03:08 Well I listen to a lot of brutal death metal and used to listen to lots of lo-fi black metal so I guess I'm used to murkier production qualities so I'm not struggling so much to hear it all.  Ironically they posted a link on their Facebook to a review from some dude calling this one of the shittiest albums ever produced because the production is horribly bad. I really wanted to comment that the production is part of what makes this album so awesome and that the production is not shitty but quite ingenius of a choice due to their choice of artwork and lyrical content but I figure the guy would've just potshot me for praising an album he is obviously incapable of appreciating at all.

I've listened to this album 10 minutes ago and it was a great surprise no doubt. The song "incantation" is just beautiful.

Awesome. I love the production. This is high quality death metal, heavy as hell, and great musicianship.
