Church Of Void – Church Of Void Review

It feels like it’s been a long wait for Church Of Void’s second full-length album (and indeed, I felt especially eager to hear it after hearing some sneak peeks of it at Electric Fox Studio last year!) but their self-titled piece is finally here and it is an absolute treat to listen to.

Church Of Void has always been a quality band and this new album of theirs is certainly testament to that. Cutting a long story short, everything about the album is excellent from start to finish and there isn’t much to fault over its forty-minute duration. The band clearly has a lot to give and it shows in how powerful, emotive and gripping Church Of Void is as a whole. The album packs a real punch and will really draw you in.

One especially great inclusion is fifth track Lovecraft. The repeating melody will really get under your skin as you listen to the track and although each track features some top-notch guitarwork, the solo in this one is truly something else and it will give you goosebumps. It’s just a mighty song and although all the songs are great, this one just has a special sparkle to it.

This is a great album. If you like your doom with a nice fuzzy edge to it with a little bit of psychedelia thrown in for good measure, you’ll love this.

9/10
