The Greatest Burden

pinkytheent A pleasure seeing you guys at Fire in the Mountains! Ghosts of Glaciers do an excellent job of thoughtfully evoking their concepts. Each song really felt like the single word or phrase with which it was titled, a feat that is not always easy to nail. In sum, this work is an effective naturalistic sonic landslide. And they took a great leaf out of Sleep’s book in repeating a phrase just enough to make it meditative, while changing things just in time to keep things fresh. Well done! Favorite track: III. Epigenesis.

Kira K'yuz~ With all their heaviness and gruesome tales.. They are the only band, that doesn't drive me into deeper despair then I'm already into.
Its like to become a ghost. And get away from all this. Favorite track: IV. Return to Entropy.

spaceman2250 The "grooviest" album of 2020 in my collection, and I get the pleasure of watching them live on home turf. This album is a non-stop catchy riff fest from heaven. It's lots of mellow tones when a song gets started, but then the overdrive gets engaged for sufficient face-melting fun. Favorite track: III. Epigenesis.

Matthias The first EP 5 years ago was a blast and I nearly gave up on hoping for fresh material. This band delivers everything early Pelican releases made me cheer and bang along for.

This review is long overdue. This album right here is the album that finally pulled me out of the "commercial" music world and into the world of the raw, experimental, and sincere. An amalgamation of everything I love about post-metal and hardcore taken to a mathy, heavy, ambient extreme. brineryte
