    All doom fans should check out this album; those who aren't yet Inter Arma converts will more than likely be swayed by the cohesive chaos and neurotic introspection that define this album.

    They maintain a slow, directionless drift that weights their third record with the dread of what’s beyond the sky.

    The apocalyptic tone that hangs over much of the record is suffocating, in the best possible way. [9 Jul 2016, p.52]

    The result is a captivating, dizzying record by a band aware that they can do anything--so they’re doing it all.

    There's a lot to take in, but Inter Arma are one of the few bands who could deliver a work of such punishing excess, expansive musicality, and devastating beauty.

    On the whole, this is an excellent record by one of the most exciting bands in experimental metal. The fact that Paradise Gallows struggles under its own weight, and feels somewhat out of order, does not drag the LP under like a boat being dashed against the rocks of an unforgiving sea.
