There is no Chokebore love around here from what I've seen. This hasn't left my disc tray for a week now. These riffs are perfectly melancholic, and played over some of the best drumming I've heard in a while. Troy's voice is almost beyond perfect for singing these sombre hymns. I am inclined to say that depressing black metal owes its existence to this record. Put this on late at night, and let the tears flood your pillow.
