The album description mentions an “emotional apex.” That’s really the difference between Stare and the band’s previous albums. Ulcerate was always supremely technically proficient. I just didn’t care all that much. Their growth has come from making music you will feel. Metallurgical Fire

There's a certain mood, an oddly specific aspect of existential misery triggered in me when listening to this - especially Von Alcoholische Verbittering Naar Religieuze Cult and its follow-up tracks. It's almost like spectating myself being overwhelmed by my demons: an ego death; a vicious, delirious frenzy induced by e.g. Salvia Divinorum, fighting over the control of my fleshly vessel, torn apart from within. I live for tracks like this, thrive in the 'visions'... absolute god-tier ambience. David Fischer
