Ballymena's favourite doom metal sons' second full-length album is, in my opinion, a big step up from their debut, Carmina Satanae. Their tight, groove-ridden stoner doom is contrasted by Gregg McDowell's blackened vocals that sound more as if they are being torn from his throat than actually sung. These songs are veritable monsters, the riffs are huge sludgy slabs of doom over miles-thick foundations laid down by the bass and drums, that crush all before them mercilessly and leave a wrung out husk behind. Where a lot of doom metal mournfully reflects on loss, Elder Druid seek revenge for it.
