scott's nightmarish lyrical visions meet their perfect foil in sunn o)))'s brutal, droning guitars & avant-garde soundscapes, exceeding even the highest expectations of this pairing.

a 5-track 50-minute body of work that cements both acts’ wide-reaching & otherworldly renown. the doom metal duo have tweaked their sound to gel more with walker's modus operandi, so amongst the monolithic, low frequency guitar chords you can hear atonal, jazzy lead guitar lines, synthesisers & a focus on the literal sonic embellishments to scott's narratives. walker's vocals power over it all with a nightmarish intensity, reaching a shocking climax on the screeching, sinister 'lullaby'. "a powerful mix of dramatic, slow-moving sound & walker's melodies & narratives" 4/5 - mojo "together, they prove even scorched earth can feel like common ground" 8/10 - uncut.
