As presaged by their track to the Chasm of Aeons four-way split, ASTRAL TOMB are all-too-perfectly monikered. Theirs is gross 'n' gooey dredge of deranged death metal that slices and sluices in obscene ways - all at the listener's discomfort, most of all, challenging even the most diehard death metaller. And yet, they've done such across teasingly short lengths, setting anticipation high (literally) for their inevitable debut album. Soulgazer seeks to Uncomfort the listener, taking him/her to places as-yet-dreamt and making them manifest within alternately intelligent/ignorant death metal barbarity. Which is all to say nothing of the utterly melted solos sprinkled across the record or the actually-really-beautiful moments of clean-toned placidity.
