one of their best! the norse mythology & lovecraftian horror was tied together extremely well and jonny's narration as lyfrassir works very nicely. absolutely beautiful vocals especially on tim ledsam & rachel l hughes parts, the clashing of various instruments and vocals especially as this state of pure cosmic madness is reached just is everything to me ,,,, also adore kofi's performance as thor !!!! which i couldve gotten more attached to sigyn though

my absolute favorite mechs album. all my favorite things!! drumbot brian, arthurian legends, polyamorous bisexuals & transgender sons, cowboys & banjos, drumbot brian, drumbot brian, drumbot brian, drumbot bria
