I love this album due to it's oppressive heaviness. I understand fully that what I'm about to write is counter-intuitive; however, the music on this offering relaxes me into a pensive state fueling visions of The Badlands with howling winds and wolves. This is fantastic doom-work for pensive moments of somber reflection. I'd encourage anyone to listen to this when the mood arises. It's a 3-song journey into one's soul. Grinding, heavy, wildly over-driven, yet without sounding muddy. spaceman2250

get it for the bonus tracks. Bit hard to tell but this digital actually includes 1000 Lashes and Necrolatry - two of the sickest tracks from the garage demo days, plus Gate live Kate Moss

A ferocious display of blackened stoner-doom from Moscow's Moanhand, who offsets moments of bleak ugliness with clean, haunting melody. Bandcamp New & Notable Jun 23, 2021

Most bands I can go through their discography pretty easily - not so much in the case of Cult Of Occult. Their music is so visceral & overwhelming that I lived with "Five Degrees of Insanity" for days before things began to come into focus. After a few months, I felt ready to hear more. The band just put all of their nihilism into a massive black mass of sludge pain & lay waste. "ANTI LIFE" takes the former album's power to the next level. Going to be playing this one as well for a while. Huge. bcb723
