Do you ever stop whatever you're doing and let your mind wander? Do you ever notice that every thought that seems to run through your head is negative? That happens to me all the time; so is this common to all people? Listening to Evoken certainly makes it seem so...
In a style where bands are only concerned about being slower and even more minimal than the next guy, Evoken towers over their Southern Lord contemporaries as they showcase actual songwriting ability. Although they still manage to be appropriately lethargic, they write real riffs and arrangements that allow songs to actually develop. The production is properly thick and clear to let the oppression of the music eclipse your day. This is very much like a Death Metal answer to The Austrasian Goat's debut, which happens to be my favorite Funeral Doom album by far. Coffins, Winter, and Mournful Congregation fans must hear...

is it supposed to sound like that?
