 Sixty minutes without even a second of accessibility; Aaron, Brian, and Nick are tremendously focused on delivering yet another monolithic, pestilential performance of barbaric and blind fury.

 I invite you to listen to "Consumed": I don’t think many will manage to reach the end of the seventeen minutes.

The reviewer finds Sumac's 'May You Be Held' to be their darkest and most challenging album yet, rejecting the idea that it is accessible. With lengthy, dense tracks filled with suffocating atmospheres and brutal heaviness, the album demands focused listening.
