about

“His lush and somber songs are immersive… At times, Hodges’ weary voice is backed by nothing more than fingerpicked guitar and subtle drones. Other times waves of ominous orchestral beauty well up as if attempting to out-shout the rising noise.” - Stereogum

“At least at first before giving way to aural experimentation, swaths of eerie soundscapes and what sounds like it could be a ceremonial/ritual drum beneath vocals that are communicating something either quite soothing or perhaps even a little sinister.” -PopMatters

“Lyrically dense, the whole of the album feels akin to falling headfirst into a fantastic sort of rabbit hole, replete with fantastic imagery and a wide variety of references. Possessing a keen ear for melody and arrangements, the songs work akin to gorgeous futuristic folk symphonies. Every piece plays off the last, resulting in the album at times resembling that of a long journey. - Beach Sloth

“At times, such as on “Generations,” the new album flirts with doom, but in a way that the density of the electric guitar work is porous enough to accommodate lilting acoustic strumming, melodies, and soft ambient sounds. A low rumble of feedback towards the end of “Generations” threatens to engulf the music—as if Godzilla had just awakened close to someone playing an acoustic guitar at a campfire—but it never quite does.” - Bandcamp Daily

never been a big death metal fan but this is actually super accessible for the genre, has fun concepts, and personally i'm always a fan of albums with short tracklists and huge runtimes (for individual songs) Great time, good jumping on point for newbies too. alienasu
