This is an outstanding example of atmospheric sludge metal from Polish act Blindead. It's got all of the ingredients you look for in this type of release. It's crushingly heavy & intense with plenty of tension & release. The production is top notch too. Don't expect to hear anything dramatically different from other bands from this genre but when it's done this well it doesn't really matter. The more ambient sections are nearly as impressive as the heavier parts with the vocals being a highlight throughout. I noticed lots of Neurosis-style tribal drumming which can only be a good thing. It doesn't get much better than this for fans of post-metal.
