Notable Quotes

❝ Ultimately, an album that I would absolutely recommend to lovers of the genre, from my modest point of view an absolute masterpiece.

❝ The album is technically perfect, the guitar solutions and the structures of almost all 12 tracks are set in ad hoc, yet... something is glimpsed and unsettles us among the magma of notes that serves as the background to this (in my opinion beautiful) album, but it is not the typical sadness of classic Doom, nor the refined symphonic-compositional sophistication of orchestral Gothic.
