SHRINEBUILDER's long-awaited debut full-length is available now via Neurot Recordings. The group -- dubbed by the media and fans alike as a "doom supergroup" -- contains members Scott Kelly (Neurosis), Dale Crover (Melvins), Scott "Wino" Weinrich (Saint Vitus, The Obsessed, Spirit Caravan) and Al Cisneros (Om, Sleep) channeling their energy into a massive culmination of spiritual, empowering, doom-heavy rock.
"...built from slow riffs that seem a thousand years old and pulled from the sea... enlivened by clear vocals and fat, authoritative, superhero guitar solos. This band slows down your sense of time, but doesn't end up wasting it..." - The New York Times
"Stunning, and at times simply staggering, the album undulates like rolling pasture, moments of extraordinary beauty cheek by jowl with elemental outbursts of tectonic riffing..." 9/10 - Decibel Magazine
"The album does a splendid job of representing the collective talents of Shrinebuilder, and for once justifies the existence of the term supergroup." - Outburn Magazine
