"I meant to post this earlier on its release (since it released Halloween). It's not often I listen to this genre... but oh boy am I glad I did. The frontman, Butcher, from the band sent this my way; a group of horror fanatics from Akron, Ohio whose aesthetic is unrivaled, inspired by horror flicks and grindhouse horror, comes a tasteful embodiment of edge and grime (without coming across as pretentious). It's an album I recommend listening to all at once, and brings me back to Loss (2006)... though, hot take: I like this a whole lot more, especially toward the album's latter half. Sludgy guitarwork, upfront bass, and impassioned vocalization work together to create allegorical images, allowing for absolute immersion. Show these dudes some love, seriously."

"If you ask me the best Norma Jean album, without any doubts I'll call this one and Redeemer. Despite Bless the Martyr was really good, since O God the Aftermath their music became much more interesting and rich in songwriting terms. This album sounds like Botch tried to play sludge metal, such a perfect mix. It contains songs full of chaos and badass dissonant breakdowns, songs full of almost post hardcore hysteria and meditative sludge/post metal ballads at the same time, embracing incredibly wide emotional specter. By the way, Shaun Luu is one of the best sludge metal songs ever made, sadly it doesn't available on any streaming platforms. Also pretty incredible that fact what they still make great new music through all the years, without any mediocre self-copying (hello, Architects) and major genre changes. I can call really few bands what could do that."
