Since I posted Leviathan last night, it feels only right to post Xasthur tonight, as I've always seen them as two sides of the same dissonant, suicide-endorsing USBM coin. It's impossible to pick a favorite Xasthur album, as they're pretty much all 10/10s, but generally, I'll go with either this or Telepathic with the Deceased. And sorry for the string of entry-level posts but school has been kicking my ass, so I haven't had time to dig deep.

Track listing:
1. In the Hate of Battle
2. Soul Abduction Ceremony
3. A Gate Through Bloodstained Mirrors
4. Black Imperial Blood
5. Legion of Sin and Necromancy
6. A Walk Beyond Utter Blackness
7. Nocturnal Poisoning
8. Forgotten Depths of Nowhere

Stare through the eyes of my mirror master
And the mirror stares back into me

Just a reminder that Xasthur has made some of the most fucked-up, depressing, claustrophobic, anxiety-ridden music, black metal or otherwise, ever produced by humans. REALLY wish this dude would put down the acoustic guitar and get back at it.

Track listing:
1. Dirge Forsaken
2. Maze of Oppression
3. Achieve Emptiness Part II
4. Masquerade of Incisions
5. Damage Your Soul
6. Inner Sanctum Surveillance
7. Obfuscated in Oblivion
8. All Reflections Drained

To kill the pain, cut twice as deep
