One of your humble host's favorite aspects of the outer fringes of metal is the fetishizing of sub-sub-genres; many "extreme" bands exist within one of their very own, as is the case with Eight Hands for Kali. Here we have one fifty-five minute song in the seemingly paradoxical category of "Buddhist War Doom," which, while difficult to picture perhaps, rolls nicely off of the tongue. Say it aloud three times:
"Buddhist War Doom."
This too must pass.
"Buddhist War Doom."
This too must pass.
In my humble opinion their first effort ("Mount Meru") is way superior.
