Fall Of Efrafa's final album in the "Warren Of Snares" trilogy is something to hold dear. It marks the farewell of the band, and it is also their masterpiece. The last two albums from this band, although were decent enough efforts, didn't reach the potential and awesomeness this band showed. Inlé does everything their previous efforts couldn't do, and it does it comfortably. EPIC is the best way you can describe this LP. It's a mammoth of an album. Five of the seven tracks all surpass the 10-minute mark, totaling the album at 80 minutes. Everything has leaped by miles on this effort. The riffs, the instrumentation, the vocals, the atmosphere, the production, everything. Build-ups that easily stand up with all of the above artists I mentioned (May not sound like GY!BE, but the influences are evident). "The Burial" is as beautiful as any music can ever get, but once the final track "The Warren Of Snares" starts, it's the band's final farewell and their defining masterwork. So, who said the apocalypse can't be beautiful?
