gawrone This album sounds like thousands of drones assimilating you simultaneously. As a Star Trek and metal fan for three decades, I've never had an idea those two passions could be connected. As with all good and beautiful things, both Star Trek and metal have their darker elements. I'm very grateful that Cpt. Aaron Osborne found them, extracted them, crystallised them into their purest form, and said "engage!". Trekkie-metalheads definitely do need more of this stuff. "Make it so!"

Scott Spiers Deep, growling vocals are a tough thing for me to get past. Most of the time. AGLO has such a compelling, dark guitar tone with a bass and drum section that grooves so hard it compels me to embrace the bleakness. This is Doom/Death that never loses sense of pace and purpose: resistance to this Riffage was definitely futile. Favorite track: Storm of Fears.

Captain's Log, Stardate 47634.44:
After a difficult period of illness and a scarcity of recorded music, a peculiar entity has emerged from the heart of a dying star in a nearby cluster of planets. The crew has aptly named this enigmatic monolith "AGLO". It has taken on the form of down-tuned guitars, slow hooks, and death metal sensibilities, infecting all who come into contact with its ravenous power.

Upon conducting communications diagnostics, it has been discovered that the latest audible horror, known as "Build Fear", was recorded and mixed by Taylor Young (God's Hate, Kruelty, Tribal Gaze) at The Pit Recording Studio and mastered by Brad Boatright at Audiosiege. Although the crew remains relatively calm and entranced by the sounds emanating from AGLO, fans of musical stylings similar to Crowbar, Incantation, Eyehategod, and Morbid Angel should approach with caution as their obsession could potentially pose a threat to their lives.

Finally, this log entry should serve as a warning to all who encounter this beast. Prepare yourselves, as the drive to worship at the altar of The Almighty Riff is strong, and resistance may prove futile.

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

What an impressive piece of black metal. This one-man hurricane is pure art. Sgah‘gahsowáh creates an haunting atmosphere. He puts so much soul in his music. Sælzer Bub
