Fuckin' aye. Long time since i've done a review but it's also been a long time since Shai Hulud has released an album. Yep, Mysanthropy Pure and it is one heavy ass c.d., from the opening of Venomspreader to the final Cold Lord Quietus, the c.d. is much more openly heavy and aggressive than previous attempts. |

"Heavier Than Heaven, Lonelier Than God" is their 2nd full length and follow up to 2007's standout 7" EP "Peace on Earth, War on Stage." |

First off, I just want to say that the record layout is awesome. Great artwork and gatefold LPs are always awesome. I'd been anticipating this record heavily since I began to consider "Vicious Skin" one of the best things that came out in 2006. This record did not disappoint for me. It is slightly more metal tinged than "Vicious Skin" in my opinion. |
