This is my favorite release by a criminally underrated American black metal project. The astonishing musicianship (this was a one-person band), the way the dense howl of vocals and strings contrast with the spacey 80s Joe Hisaishi keys, the unusual and endlessly creative ways the drum machine is utilized - there's still nothing quite like Petrychor, even now. I've listened to 'Planets Born of Human Ash' a hundred times and the percussion still blows my mind.
Cheers, and thanks for the music. Vintage Devilry

Shades of Agalloch at times, but more occult in tone. Nasty heavy parts weave seamlessly with beautiful acoustic passages. 27 minutes goes by awfully fast; not a second wasted. Matt A
