the observers
are waiting for you tonight
they hide
beneath the stars
thirsty they are for whole new life
savoring
your offer
sacrifice your blood for wine
bringing you
the auspicious omen
conveying meaning with your gods
the libations of the dead of the night
elements, of earth, wind, fire, in plight
patera and altar
from which bull blood flow
natural oils
honey and wine the ground consume
loftious of spirits
my first and second bowl to thee
cauldron of sanctuary
sacred grove pouring precede

An outstanding Extreme doom death album, in the best tradition. The funerary atmosphere reminds of Evoken ('Centuries of ooze" bears striking similarities, for my delight). It is overall sharp, dark, hypnotic and unrelenting. One of those rare convincing new bands that hold proud the legacy of the biggest names. Bertrand Marchal

Over the entirety of "Darkness Devours," Hanging Fortress brings some serious primal death metal aggression. Like captain fucking caveman riffs. It's so good. Almost missed this, which is just a straight up beat down that you want over again. bcb723
