xedenisgonex - the cold tomb of decomposed utopia

i have a real soft spot for edge metal of the belgian way of the nineties and early 00's. this bad boy right here sounds like it came right out of that time. besides it's just a damn good metalcore album in itself. record of the year material. bound by modern age records. 2021/2023.
