Mounds of Ash

This album makes me tense, anxious, and kind of angry. It is not an uncommon feeling with this type of noisy-USBM-meets-abrasive-hardcore sprinkled with atmospherics to make certain that you also become paranoid over some undefined feeling of impending doom. Yep, it is one of those Profound Lore rel...
