This is a special album, it's my favourite of all the thousands of albums I've listened to. It mixes skramz (screamo), post-metal and to a lesser degree blackgaze - and it's perfect to my ears. I don't relate to bereavement, which is what the album is about, but it has some well-said lyrics: "Is it right to determine a life's worth through productivity? All shall recieve, according to need." - from "Critique Programme"
An obvious 10/10 for me. Artificial, Soulless, Ashen
This album is my first contact with this band. I am in absolute awe at the beauty and cretivity on display here. Incredible work of art. I’m glad there is still music like this, that moves me in this noise of everyday life. Zrinko Maloseja
Dark electronic music gets warped and clobbered on the latest from Author & Punisher. Brooding, cutting, and claustrophobic. Bandcamp New & Notable Mar 18, 2017
