Review of new record 'CRUSH DEATH' released earlier this month on Southern Records...

What can you say about 12 piece doom house electro-disco metal phenomenon that dress like sacred knights from the 25th century?Tight prog chops and disco-ball hedonism - the most unashamedly enjoyable record you'll hear this year.INCREDIBLE!
