Beastmaker are also more than capable of delivering some nice, atmospheric breakdowns, with nimble guitar solos as embellishment, and some subtlety to the arrangements, like on Heaven to Hell, or Now Howls the Beast, where Lucifer’s Johanna Sardonis takes a guest vocal turn. If I had a gripe, It’d be that I want to hear more of this side of the band. Give me a nice slow build of dread, some tension and release like the horror films Church takes as inspiration. But until then, two fistfuls of driving doom are nothing to sneer at.

Seven and a half Abominable Eternities in Doom out of Nine.
