Conceptually it orbits astral projection, Rasputin, and the Romanovs. Musically it's progressive sludge metal that somehow swings between Pink Floyd-scale atmospherics and riffs that could bend steel. Brann Dailor's drumming alone justifies the price of the pressing. If you came up through the Atlanta metal scene or spent any time digging through the heavier end of Southern metal and sludge, this one hits different on wax.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eStandard full-length LP pressing.
