Liturgy is an American experimental/post-black metal band formed in Brooklyn in 2005, led by Hunter Hunt-Hendrix.

Aesthethica (2011) was released on Thrill Jockey. The band is known for blending black metal with experimental and avant-garde elements.

The provided review treats Aesthethica as divisive—splitting critics and fans—while praising instrumental inventiveness and unusual timbres. The harsh vocal delivery is noted as extreme but effective in context. Overall a middling rating (3/5) with recognition of moments that work.

For:Fans of experimental and post-black metal; listeners seeking challenging, avant-garde metal.

 Reading what is reported on the printed (music) sheet and wandering around the web, one reads all sorts of things about this second album by the young Liturgy released not more than a few months ago by Thrill Jockey, a release that literally split both the opinion of the experts and especially that of the ultra-integralist fans of badmusic: with nonchalance, definitions range from sham album tout court to timeless masterpiece.
