Harold N’Hiver
I recall receiving this and Agalloch’s Marrow of the Spirit in the mail on the day of release, and wondering which I should choose to listen to first. I love both bands, but it was an easy decision. I chose Thou. I will always choose Thou, for they are the 🐐.
A fellow below said that Thou’s lyrics are a huge draw, and I couldn’t agree more. Some of the most thoughtful and intelligent lyrics you will find on a metal record. Or on ANY record.
