Upon hearing "Decrepit Flesh Relic," the first album from CIVEROUS, one was crushed beneath its suffocating weight and bone-breaking death hymns. Now, with the towering new release "Maze Envy", LA’s most creatively destructive black/death/doom entity unleashes an evolved yet equally brutal storm of immersive horror and morbid lamentation. Refusing the safe confines of the genre, "Maze Envy" ventures into unusual technicality, progressive atmospheres, string flourishes, and chaotic mysticism, radiating a purple light of ascension from the black oceans of dread CIVEROUS call home. Chain-dragging dirges, blackened blasts, and Lord Foul’s hellish vocal exorcisms crown this record with a grandeur worthy of oblivion. This is end-times music - a labyrinth of crushing sound from which escape feels impossible. Pink 12"LP format.
