Comprised of a half dozen epic, time-stretching hymns, this disc is a vitriolic & hypnotizing assault on the senses.
Recognised as one of the most virtuosic guitar wizards today, Mick Barr displays his awe-inspiring 6-string histrionics in such bizarre outfits as Ocrilim (Hydra Head) + Orthrelm (Ipecac), bending & stretching the rules of modern-day playing and giving new meaning to progressive guitar-work... Nonetheless, Mick (who has also collaborated with John Zorn & Mike Patton of Faith No More) remains quite an enigma today.
Colin Marston, one of the most prolific & recognised musicians in technical / extreme progressive metal, also boasts an impressive pedigree, having played in Behold; The Arctopus; Dysrhythmia; Byla, etc.
These two men are the core of Krallice. This, is their self-titled debut album, where Mick & Colin tread a familiar musical landscape, though translated into a visceral, tremolo-layered black metal monolith. Comprised of a half dozen epic, time-stretching hymns, this disc is a vitriolic & hypnotizing assault on the senses that marks Krallice as singular in U.S. black metal today.
