Description/Reviews
On The Word as Power, Lustmord continues that tradition of using outside sources to build from his clear and consistent artistic base. Here, he pairs long, slow, and steady vocal takes from five singers with his usually sedate machinations of plunging bass and droning textures. The distant, near-monastic intonations of Maynard James Keenan, for instance, echo as though from the mouth of a cave on “Abbadon”, fading in and out of a punishing electronic web like they’re being whipped by a gale. He practically bullies Jarboe’s bewitching tone on “Andras Sodom”, occasionally letting it drift like smoke above a fire only to soon scramble, reverse or otherwise warp it.
