Info

What can I say about this groundbreaking, genre-defying, completely out-of-left-field album that hasn't already been said? You will either think it's a brilliant and daring work of art, or dismiss it as a pretentious attempt at forcing avant-garde notions of composition and musicianship into a genre in which those ideas don't belong. Either way, Gorguts took death metal in a strange new direction with this release, and I consider it one of the highlights of the otherwise dismal late-1990s metal scene.

This album has been out of print for a while and I'm not sure if/when it will be reissued.
