A filtered glow from the angel's bones
Summoned as they rattle on the lightless altar
Austere entities circling the abnormal communion
Choral exhalations erupting in the chamber
Sanguine rift bellowed forth
Ethereal tendrils engulf the ceremony
Of which none could comprehend
But an entry into the esoteric storm
One accepts the alien pathfinder
And follows through the oculus portal
For all to witness they set a vigil
And upon them shapeless creatures dance
Traversing the limitless planes
Drifting through the eternal twilight
They adopt a bottomless catacomb
And the familiar one greets them
We are a Melbourne-based duo of musicians who play a unique blend of doom metal that draws influence from sludge, funeral doom, drone and numerous genres outside of metal.

Some pretty good atmospheric death-doom. The track order of this album is odd, with the first two songs being far longer and grander in scale than the latter two songs. It doesn't work super well to me, but I can appreciate the attempt at something new, and maybe it's someone else's thing. It's worth a listen. Camel

“Iris” is one of those albums that pulls out all the stops and when it isn’t blurring the lines of multiple genres, it’s setting down stalwart ramparts firmly within one or another. An album that plays out like The Heroes Journey- an arc of inner turmoil, exterior conflict, a test of mettle on all fronts as you make your way in the world toward your one true destiny and stand at the gates with an open heart and all of the world at your back. justanoldgod

Mizmor is one of my favorite bands. So versatile and dynamic and best artist to create vast variety of tangible atmospheres. Yodh is a bountiful album that sails the ocean of sore emotions arousing psyche's hidden parts. Perfect unholy marriage of mystic, brittle acoustics and limbo-quaking heaviness. 𝙅𝙤𝙚 𝙎𝙥𝙞𝙣𝙚𝙡𝙡
