The album rolls along like a bulldozer at a mid-paced dirge, highlighted by moments of rolling double bass, blastbeats and melodic passages that would satisfy any extreme metalhead.Ashen remain very active Downunder supporting acts such as Nile, Fleshgod Apocalypse and Wolfheart. They will be joining up with Left to Die this March when the band hit Australia.For fans of Frozen Soul, Bolt Thrower, Helslave and Graceless
