Kristallijne uitputting

The synth integration is genuinely surprising for a Krallice album, adding a cold, atmospheric layer that still feels brutal. Side A flows perfectly into those dense guitar riffs, and the vinyl pressing is dead quiet.

The synths really cut through on this pressing, giving the whole album a sharper, more layered feel than their older stuff. The vinyl itself is quiet and flat, no surface noise to distract from the complex riffs. A fantastic pressing for such a densely arranged record.

The synth-forward mix really comes through on this pressing, giving the guitars and keys room to breathe in a way the digital version just doesn’t capture. Sleeve’s sturdy too, though the inner sleeve was a bit snug getting the record out the first time.
