Ben Z. There's a mood somewhere between uncomfortable darkness and irrepressible intrigue that Hasufel consistently manages to capture perfectly. We're lucky to have this project.

Pagan Centurion Just got my tapes in the mail today, a few days early before release. I knew it was going to be good from the few released tracks on here (as of this review being written only 3 tracks are on bandcamp), but after listening to the whole album I can tell you this is top notch Dark Ambient music. I'm usually more for whimsical or epic dungeon synth but this took me to another world just as well as those other genres. Top quality tapes and insert from So Called Hell & top quality music from Hasufel.

about

Southern California carrion crawler Hasufel's third full-length is both its most atmospheric and most unholy, unfurling like clouds of cursed smoke from the mouth of a crumbling tunnel. High priest Helmut's synth throbs and fogged tomb groans lurk in the lower depths while cloaked collaborator Ryan Parrish summons serpentine wind currents on kaval and Egyptian ney, woven within subtle field recordings of dripping caverns, midnight insects, graveyard bells, and rumbling tectonics.

Like recent Chondritic Sound collection Winter On The Hill Cumorah, Lamentations is laced with Latter-day Saints malevolence, channeling a palette of dark ambient and occult ritual into eerie electro-acoustic exorcisms. Music of bewitchment and banishment, cast into shadows south of heaven.
