Der Ohlsen "[...] if the opener of this album did one thing, then it was amplifying that WTF! impression I had from the artwork. What happens after the atmospheric intro especially in terms of production choices just completely escapes any palpable comparison for me. Seemingly low-fi and blurry in an ultra obscure and hardly listenable way, but somehow at the same time just so bold and intriguing [...]"

my whole review: derohlsen.blogspot.com/2022/12/me-voidhanging-with-forlesen-neptunian.html

Slut Aus Nord ZOS have created an intensive and mystifying work that I can only describe as "blackened kosmische"... A record with many twists and turns, and some stunning, eclectic surprises. Favorite track: The Whole of the Body I Call ZOS.

________________________

From the thick fog of an acid ritual of chaos comes ZOS, a latent memory of doomed visionaries that leads the listener to each one's own subconscious shadow planes. ZOS owes its name to 20th century counterculture pioneer, Austin Osman Spare and his body of work.

Recorded between November 2019 and June 2021, "The Whole Of The Body I Call ZOS" is the third and most mature release of the Polish band, a jumble of electric guitars, thundering drums and unique occult atmospheres. Focusing on automatism as means of creation, ZOS follow the thread of inspiration during intoxicating improvisations where psychedelic rock, doom and drone metal dissolve into lysergic melodies leading to inner bliss.

In guitarist Aāos-Ra's own words, "the sounds featured on The Whole Of The Body I Call ZOS phonomachy are the fruit of an incense process of unlearning, of automatic expression of imaginative vistas from far beyond the veil of what is conscious and deliberate, from an estate of mind within and without."

An outstanding Extreme doom death album, in the best tradition. The funerary atmosphere reminds of Evoken ('Centuries of ooze" bears striking similarities, for my delight). It is overall sharp, dark, hypnotic and unrelenting. One of those rare convincing new bands that hold proud the legacy of the biggest names. Bertrand Marchal

never been a big death metal fan but this is actually super accessible for the genre, has fun concepts, and personally i'm always a fan of albums with short tracklists and huge runtimes (for individual songs) Great time, good jumping on point for newbies too. alienasu
