I thought "why is my metal cousin playing this bluesy vibe music" and after 10 seconds I realised I was listening to one of the most interesting bands in 5 years or so. Wow, discovery of the last half decade. Thank you so much Z&A! Keep being awesome!

My recommendations: Ihsahn and Katatonia

The sound of this band is AMAZING. Death to the Holy, Church Burns, and Götterdamenrung and masterpieces and I've listened to them non stop for a year now.

Bring out the wolves of the north, The flies of the east, The birds of the south, The snakes of the west.

Went to see Opeth live and these guys opened the show. With Mastodon following up. Zeal & Ardor. Mastodon. Opeth. I should’ve worn the white pants....

I believe in God and believe there are aliens. What if aliens believed in a God and found out there were "aliens" on planet earth? Not sure why you don't realize people believed God created everything. We don't have to see the dinosaurs in person to believe God created those as well.

Or our ancestors thought the aliens who came centuries ago were gods, and people have wasted their whole lives believing fairy tales, and committing the worst atrocities in the history of mankind, in the name of some species of alien, who were probably laughing their asses off as they watched in sadistic glee, like we were just ants in their own giant ant farm. 100x more plausible than any organized religions' origin story! And 500x more likely than Christ being immaculately conceived, walking on water, rising from the dead, telling people to turn the other cheek, and yet doing nothing as the Spanish inquisition killed and tortured innocent people by the thousands trying to bring Christianity to the world!

Just saw them live, incredible

Perfection. I'm loving the lyrics on these 2 new songs as much as the music.

Still my new favourite song since it came out. This album was so well constructed.

What an absolute anthem!

Love this song. They seem kind of heavy on finding a good grind immediately into a song and then just making the entire song two hooks and two chorusii. I feel like I don't appreciate them enough but I also feel like appreciating them more than I do is inventing appreciation so, what I decided to do, is just listen more. I suggest you do to.

hands down, best live band ive ever experienced, only 55k followers on YT, its a shame. should be 2.3 mill or higher

This song surprised the shit out of me. What a sound, I'm a fan now

Best song I've heard in a long time. Amazing!

This one makes me smile, such a great beat and great lyrics, it deserves more views.

Easily one of my favourite songs of the year!

Great performance at Rickshaw a few nights ago, thank you for coming over again 👍

First time, I entered the wrong channel on my remote and their name came up for purchase to listen to. Came to yt to listen. I like it.

Blues + black metal = bruised metal

This video published in nuclear blast record would have million views. Very solid material !

Who knock my door It was open the night before Seal is broken, I can't no more Lot of folk in this circle of salt First order of business First order of business We sin, don't pray for forgiveness The night will come again and you'll be the witness Of the resilient spoils of the weakest Gather the wolves of the north The flies of the east The birds of the south The snakes of the west Death to the holy Death to the holy Who howl my name?

I'll live as if he's not and simply try to be the best person I can be and if that's not good enough for some god; if they would reject me because I didn't stroke their egos... well, I guess I'll go to Hell then. A god that'd let a good person go to hell because they didn't believe is not a good, kind or just god, imo, so I wouldn't want to go to its heaven. If religion helps some people deal with the stresses of life, that's all fine and well, I won't knock them... but when they turn authoritarian and abusive, that's where the problems start and I start standing behind the notion of "death to the "holy"." My default state is more "meh to the holy" though. Never strongly cared one way or the other that I can recall.

​@@TheKarret I believe it's insinuated that the man on the hill was abused by the cardinal as a clergy boy. So his beliefs are engraved from childhood but knows the abuse was wrong and can't face the trauma thus turns to drink. By bathing in the unnatural light he's shedding his faith and the trauma it inflicted. He represents the absolution of western society when the Christian God is purged.

Such a killer album, well done you guys.

Its funny that you think all Christians would have a panic attack upon listening to music about Satan. Im a Christian and I love this album, actually I got to see these guys open up for Mastodon and Opeth back in december. Sure there are some people (not exclusively Christians) who freak out about evil bands but they are not usually the majority. I think that anyone, religious or not who forms opions about bands based on their image needs to reevaluate their music listneing.
