Another fantastic Altar of Betelgeuze record! Another Transcending Obscurity win! This shit is so so good! Heavier than the first, and more of a 90’s vibe, yet heavier at the same time. Love it!
Favorite track: No Return.

The Soundgarden-goes-stoner/doom vibe mixed with the harsher elements makes for a dynamic and invigorating listen. It reminds me a bit of the sadly defunct Horn Of The Rhino, which is certainly no bad thing.
Favorite track: Sledge of Stones.

Altar of Betelgeuze Digipak CD
Compact Disc (CD) + Digital Album
We decided to offer something special to our first 50 buyers in addition to just the digipak CD, which is a A3 size poster of the extended album artwork. This is a very economically priced package and a memorable one at that we hope. This band deserves more and hopefully we're doing enough. Thanks.
Please note that the posters are now sold out but the digipak CDs are available separately.
Altar of Betelgeuze from Finland are onto something special. Not content with playing either doom or death metal, the band merge influences from both realms so to speak and create a seamless sound where clean singing and growls both have a place. Essentially Altar of Betelgeuze play stoner doom but with the heaviness and relative structuring of death metal. Long, winding songs that are at once emotive and crushing enthrall the listener for extended periods of time, while you are left wondering about suitable parallels for this unique band. 'Among the Ruins' is a definitive present-day album, when it's no longer about mimicking your idols but taking the sound forward in a logical, sincere manner.

I missed out on this gem of an album by this Awesome band the first go around. However, with the Awesome newest release I had to check out the back catalog. Thank you De Profundis for the great METAL and to TO for bringing the music into the hands of us crazy METALHEADS. gwcon2006
