First of all this isn’t 06/06/06, cut the cringy “Look how anti-God we are.” crap already. Seriously, all views and beliefs aside, it’s not even a dead horse anymore. What we have is something so overdone and past the point of bludgeoning to death there aren’t even atoms left. Take a few swings at Islam, take a few swings at Hinduism or Judaism. The lyrics here aren’t even that profound. Okay, now we’ve gotten through that, let’s carry on with the rest of this shit show.

I got to the third track, ‘God Is Your Friend’, and I was done. I would sooner listen to GHOST, which, by the way, stop trying to be GHOST. It’s like a lapdog trying to be a wolf by comparison. I was about to call it quits, write this review on this absolute garbage and go about my evening playing Witcher 3. But I said to myself “No, integrity comes first. I will listen to this abysmal excuse for an album all the way through, who knows? It might just change my mind.” It did not.

Musically, if I was on an acid trip, this would be the bad trip that would get me to put it down and never take it back up again. Lyrics aside, the band could have at least tried to make the album flow. There was no flow, there was no journey, there was no feeling. For fuck’s sake, if I wanted a jerky retarded trip, I’d ride the beat up VW hippie van with bald tires all the way to…San Diego, CA. I knew it. I could just feel it, Now the lyrics make sense, and the completely stunted music makes sense. I would have said Portland myself, but…you know what…Portland might have actually given me something better.

Don’t buy the album. Just don’t. Unless you like them or are into this trash then by all means, that’s on you. But take it from a guy that likes his Doom. Take it from a guy that has dipped a toe or two into prog. Go listen to SLEEP instead. Go listen to REDSCALP instead. Go listen to WEEDRUID, just do NOT submit your ears to this absolute shite.

Nothing redeemable here. Nothing to salvage. Move on.
