A bit long but still great. The first song is head and shoulders above the rest.

"This album appeared to me out of nowhere and I love it. I like shoegaze. I'm not sure why but the sound, the atmosphere it creates, it's all so comforting. And yet at times it can be terrifying. The duo of Dan Barrett(Giles Corey) and Tim Macuga makes for a thrilling adventure from beginning to end. Once the album starts we are introduced to the song, "A Quick One Before the Eternal Worm Devours Connecticut". The track name alone lets everyone know they are in for something special. The album proceeds to get darker and produce heavier sounds. The vocals are at first a little hard to get into, but once you really hunker down and listen, you understand how big of a role that plays into the completion and tone of this album. The atmosphere that is created when any song is played on this album just engulfs you."

"Droning textures, hopeless ambience, dark echoed vocals drenched in misery, and eclectic attitudes are all things that just work on Deathconsciousness. It's everything I love in a well done record and there are few bands that can pull it off. Excellent."
