Leif Edling's bass-forward compositions, the glacial tempos, Messiah Marcolin's operatic delivery on later pressings, the sheer heaviness that owed more to Black Sabbath's funeral procession side than its hard rock one, this is the record that drew the line between heavy metal and doom metal and dared you to cross it.
