4.0 out of 5 stars
Brutal Lovecraftian Antique Horror Metal, February 9, 2012
This review is from: Seepia (Audio CD)
I will start by saying, Portal's music IS NOT going to be for everyone. The scathing, atonal guitars create a real sense of claustrophobia. Drums hammer down and in bizzare new variations of traditional blast-beats and disorienting fills. Creating the illusion of complete chaos, yet always in control. Bass is almost inaudible, just enough in the mix to know its there. All this swarms around the raspy-gurgly-death rattle of The Curator.
4/5 stars because, as much as I like this one, I really enjoy their new album, 'Swarth', much more.
Long May They Continue To Cure The Sane.....
