A grand display that's equally gorgeous and grotesque! Churning, writhing rhythms lay the groundwork for caustic, venomous vocals and discordant melodies that remind me of a death metal version of Blut Aus Nord. One of 2023's best metal albums! Turd Ferguson
Finally found the change for a copy, glad I didn’t miss it as everything Brendan Dean has done, in my eyes is golden. This LP has a serious weight to it, the use of effects like digital distortion just add to the chaos. - also, the album artwork is great. 👍🏻 the cassettes look brilliant.

The Indonesian act Kekal leaves no genre unturned, colliding black metal with industrial music with melodic post-rock on this stunning LP. Bandcamp New & Notable Mar 25, 2023
The song structures say Gorguts by way of Ion Dissonance. Guitar tone says Gojira by way of The Red Chord?! Interesting stuff, a big step up from their last album. Ghuughra
