#6 out of 10
Year: 2008
Genre: Dirty Post-Metal
Label: Neurot
TRT: 62:50
Another project of Josh Graham (Blood and Time, Battle of Mice, Red Sparowes) This time exploring a similar sound to that of Neurosis (who he directed visuals for). Very atmospheric and heavy, with an emphasis on sludge. Interestingly enough, Graham has said that the album’s concept has something to do with “bog bodies”, corpses that have been preserved remarkably well in the sludge of peat bogs for hundreds of years.
While some might be turned off to his gravelly vocal delivery, I personally find it to fit perfectly with the feel of the album.
