  1. Harpischord, bombast and multi-tracked vocals create an eerily outdated sound, setting Destroyer of the Void's stall as an overblown oddity.
  2. There's nothing wrong with Destroyer of the Void, but it's not the thrill one would have wished for.
  3. On an album that quite simply comes up lacking in spots, they provide a healthy dose of the same brilliant elegance found on "Furr."
  4. Under The Radar
