Gripping, mesmerizing and flat-out massive; Seattle, Washington based doom/death metal band Anhedonist’s debut full-length “Netherwards” is an aural and aesthetic masterpiece. Spanning over 40 minutes spaced out across 4 songs, Anhedonist have created a mournful album which is sure to please even the harshest of critics. Their 2010 demo “The Drear” only touched on the capabilities of this band combining harrowing melodies, monolithic riffs and scathing vocals to create an extremely memorable and complete debut sure to leave definable marks on the listener’s psyche.
