  I think this album might be my favorite metal release so far this year.

  I listened to it a bunch of times when it came out last month, and then it dropped off my radar for a bit. Then I was reminded of it again by a list of April metal albums I was reading today and I am once again floored by how great it is.

  There are parts of Ego Dissolution that are pretty straight-ahead death metal, but it's got a lot more going on than just that. Lots of shifts in tone and pace, but it all holds together and is quite a journey when you listen to the whole thing.

  And that cover art! I have to think it's channeling those HP Lovecraft mass market covers from the 1980s and I love it!
