Mourning Beloveth 'The Sullen Sulcus' Words like towering and gargantuan spring to mind as soon as the opening chord to” The Words that Crawled” grind out-this is metalof the toughest kind, forged deep in the bowels of hell, designed to flatten cities and topple mountains.

To describe this as doom metal with old school flourishes of early Paradise Lost and Anathema really fails to do justice to the immensity of this production. Stand out tunes “The Insolent Caul” and Narcississtic Funeral manage to sound both malevolently evil and bizarrely beautiful, a balancing act of some consummate skill KKKK |
