this album is fucked up. it starts off with slow sludgy vocals and a slow riff with repetitive drumming. then after those vocals go away we are introduced to another style of vocals. these are a bit like Julie Chrsitmas' but this is a dude. the screams are frightening and just haunting. then we get some soft clean vocals that will scare the shit out of you. at this point there is just a single guitar tone slowly building up alongside the vocals. the sung vocals get a little bit more intense and mixes some screams in. "JUST ME MYSELF AND I AND THE WILL TO STAY OR TO CLIMB!!!!!" the music picks up a bit here and we get those sludgy vocals back. this part sounds similar to Neurosis but with some drone elements. the only downside to this album/song is that after this part it kinda drags with the repetitive drumming and wall of sound but the vocals and atmosphere make it one haunting song to sit through. i might add that this is just one song that is 39:26 minutes long. what i described was just the first 18 minutes. after that there is just a bunch of drone-esque stuff and sludgy doom drumming and vocals. this isnt something you can just throw on, you have to be in the mood for it. its the only way to really appreciate this song. i only would have wished that the clean/screamed vocals would have come back in the end and that there was some sort of climax in the end instead of in the beginning
