Year of No Light - Ausserwelt (2010)^{Release ID: 7554}

An absolutely crushing release that is at times almost overwhelming in it's depth. The atmosphere that this creates is immense. I'm not familiar with their previous work so the lack of vocals was very refreshing to me. I can only imagine just how loud these guys would be live with so much noise. The drummer is seriously giving those symbols a belting. I must admit that I could've done without the faster drumming sections in the 3rd & 4th tracks which is kinda messy but maybe it'll grow on me. I have heard so much ambient music that has similar structural elements to this album. Possibly the heaviest album of 2010!
