Owl: You are the moon, I am the night

“…and you taste like owl.”
OK, are you ready for some seriously slow and non-captivating doomy death metal? Here we go then. This album is one hour long and contains 5 tracks, where two of them are instrumentals. So the 3 real songs are around 10 to 20 minutes, and if I were them I would play them double speed and have 5 minute songs and turning this into an EP.
I’ve had this album in my queue for a while but never managed to stay alive long enough to make an opinion. Finally I had to prep myself with some caffeine pills and 5-6 cans of Red Bull and press play. There’s not much going on here really, and the sad thing is that I think it’s intentional. If you like it like that, fine, this is your thing, but I need more action. And what was the point with that last song, “Levitating into Elysium”? 14 minutes of ambient sound of nothing, come on!
4/10: A whole lotta love for nothing going on.
After going thru that crap, you most likely wanna read something way more interesting. You do, admit it.
