"Though being a death/doom band, the needle leans a little more towards the death side than some of their label mates, though they do deliver plenty of sickly, slower rumbles throughout the self titled debut. The palpable stench of Autopsy, Slugathor, Obituary, Incantation, Bolt Thrower and others seep through the down-tuned, no frills, compact 27 minute album that does not reinvent the wheel at all, but certainly looks like the wheel has been through a field of rotting corpses.

Staring with “Warlust Contortions” and ending with “Empire of Rot”, the album rumbles and lumbers with a thick, fuzzed out guitar tone and rough, throaty growls that come across like a deeper Martin Van Drunen (Asphyx) . A couple of tracks delivers brief moments of more doom-y psychedelic menace like “Born of Dying Stars”, “Hunted By The Light” and “Devourment of God’s People”. But its generally a mid paced, mudslide pacing that’s got a perfect production for the style." - Teeth of the Divine review
