#158 | Album Review | Return to Worm Mountain – Therianthropy
An outlandish cross-pollination of psychedelic synth quirks, verdant folk melodies, acid-churning sludge, and a sundry of timbres balmy, bitter, and beatific.
Album Review | Oranssi Pazuzu | Mestarin kynsi

One thing is certain, and the Rest is Lies;
