The 2nd full-length by this U.S. blackened Sludge/Doom Metal band. Coming on like a harsher Warhorse, a stripped-down Unearthly Trance, a darker Grief or a bleaker Wolvhammer, Highgate are a punishing avalanche of no-frills somberness. There are no grooves here, there is no light. There really is something monomaniacal and unsettling about the way Highgate deliver their slow-motion apocalypse. Devastating stuff! |
