상당히 무겁고 컬트적이다. 앨범 전반을 두고 봤을 때 건조하고 낮은 피치의 기타라인, 베이스, 드럼, 언클린의 보컬과 클린보컬, 키보드의 선율이 상반되면서 섬떡하고 공포스러운 분위기를 형성한다. 특히 드럼소리가 기억에 남는데, 약간의 깊이를 가지고 울리는것이 마치 어두운 동굴 속 천장에서 똑똑 떨어지는 물방을같다. 그로울링의 보컬을 계속 이어나가지 않고 뚝뚝 끊어서 던져주는게 하드코어펑크적인 느낌도 받았다. 최근에 이정도로 인상깊게 들었던 앨범이 있었나. 그냥 분위기에 지려버렸다. 90.5점.

Death Doom that has hints of Avant-Garde Metal. Fails at creating any gripping riffs or atmospheres, but maintains a great amount of intrigue due to its uniqueness.
