The stars have aligned perfectly for another thoroughly Lovecraftian tome of badness, so here's a rotten hunk of metal to sink your choppers into, you gob! Occult one-man death metal from Denver signed to the mighty Razorback Records, Crypticus truly plumbs the depths of black magic and weird science on this album. Maddeningly bereft of a lyric sheet, we can't draw solid lines between the works of old uncle Howard and the abominable experiments here but there is a distinct Herbert West/Charles Dexter Ward/Doctor Muñoz vibe, with writhing things in jars and crackling electrical coils and beings unseen swimming through the air just outside of our perception.Moat of Blood
