    Portal are a band that never break character and Vexovoid is their fourth full-length release (along with two demos and two EPs), continuing their well-established theme of creating deep feelings of dread, alienation and confusion in the listener, all through exquisitely made and intelligently deployed aural assaults.

    If these 35 minutes feel like twice that, it's because Portal thought through every step, packed all of its ideas as tightly as possible, and left it for you to decode.

    Vexovoid is possibly the most inscrutable, evil-sounding thing to emerge from Australia since Mel Gibson.

    It doesn’t sound as if the songs were inventing their own structures and falling apart in the process.
