Australian Warhammer 40K inspired industrial/doom/sludge trio are taking no prisoners with this release. »The Portrait« is the band’s sophomore album and follow up to »As All Life Burns«.

Continuing the documentation of dark tales of desire, ambition and a legion fallen into corruption.

Delving into the depths of hedonism and depravity, stoking the flames of chaos. »The Portrait« serves to experiment through various sonic realms while building on the core, miserably doomed sound of the band.

“Every portrait that is painted with feeling is a portrait of the artist, not of the sitter.” — Oscar Wilde, The Picture of Dorian Gray

This album was created on stolen land of the Boonwurrung and the Wathaurong people of the Kulin Nation.
