Boring, repetitive, boring, heavy, boring, fuzzy, boring, noisy, and boring. Insulting how this is considered a great release in Doom Metal when it is not Doom Metal at all. Droning, Stoner “riffs” caked in enough fuzz that you’re tricked into thinking this is some kind of atmospheric soundscape. Played slow with insane lethargy, not for the sake of emphasizing mood or feeling, but because the band members were probably too burnt to be bothered to play anything else.
I do usually like to see the value in something even if it isn’t for me, but the mass praise this thing gets means I don’t need to cut it any breaks. It doesn’t do anything except layer on guitar fuzz, and I don’t understand what the appeal to that is supposed to be. Rather, I can see how inebriated people are fooled into liking this, but for the album to be so widely beloved and acclaimed? What is going on? How is this appealing to so many people? Albums like this truly make me feel like I’ve lost touch with the world.

The album art looks like Adam Sandler's character Little Nicky at a slightly older age, but with a fully grown out beard and noticable horns, while smoking a bong. Album art is funny, but the biggest draw for me to this was "Weird Tales / Electric Frost / Golgotha / Altar of Melektaus". I was high as dinosaur tits hearing that song that I felt I was in a hypnotic state. "Dopeth... Read More
