 This project is a true monster with features of Post-Hardcore, Sludge, Unclassifiable, Industrial, Mathcore, and more… a nice auditory prologue to the group’s subsequent projects that we like so much… indeed!

 Old Man Gloom are not just any band. Considering they are formed by members of Isis, Converge, and Cave-In, they can truly be considered a supergroup of the post-core scene.
