First time on vinyl for the third full-length album from UK Funeral Doom legends Esoteric. A superbly crafted study of dark, ominous and glacial-paced doom. Subtle, complex, psychotropic, otherworldly, deep and emotive. The original recording was hampered by (in the band's words) "a chaotic and hugely oppressive sound". This has been greatly improved upon and the multi-layered sound is much clearer in definition, much more in line with what Esoteric originally intended. Though still crushing, heavy and impenetrably dense, there are subtle complexities that can be now finally be heard. Beautifully layered chaos and a well crafted depth belies a dark, onminous and monstrous doom.
Originally released in 1999 by Eibon Records, now completely remixed and re-mastered for vinyl by Greg Chandler. Ltd x 650 copies on 180g vinyl in a high quality gatefold sleeve, with full-size insert. With music on 3 of the 4 sides, the release also features a picture D-side (please don't try to play it!). Essential!
