Vinyl LP pressing. 2010 release, the seventh release from acclaimed Sludge Metallers Jucifer. The album was completed during a snowstorm in December 2009 at Akdar Studios in Pennsylvania. It's lyrics and music address themes of war, conquest and nihilism, spanning a broad timeline of human existence. Formed in 1993, Jucifer is known for pioneering the two-piece band and being the first to tour at club level with stadium sized amplification-a literal wall of sound. Their music presaged and paved the way for current acceptance of experimentation and genre crossing between Extreme Metal and other styles of music.
what is this phase these guys are going thru? i mean, i dig it. but it's so one-dimensional... i love celtic frost, and this totally reminds me of the classic swiss death-avantgarde band, but, hey, there was so much more going on within jucifer's art...why are they so angry? well, yeah, the world is in terrible shape and who knows if it'll get better... but this hardcorish, quasi-blackmetal-ness is so freaky... sorry, i like it, but i don't get it..one more thing; the riffs are outstanding, amber's vocals remind me of a more hellish wndy o. williams, but the low-fi production leaves a lot to be desired: one of the elements and traits that attracted me to jucifer's music in the first place was the massive-bonhamesque-live drum sound, the huge cavernous bass drum, the tribal tom-toms, the deafening cymbals... the demoesque sound of this new offering sadly castrates such an atmosphere... they really need to re-record this with a bigger budget. and probably make it a double album: the heavy, dark, doomy, violent songs, PLUS a lush acoustic thing...please, someone tell me what in hell is this!
