From the opening track "The Black Death," the album sets a foreboding tone that never lets up. The use of ominous synths and distorted vocals creates an eerie atmosphere that is both unsettling and captivating. The album's standout track, "The Plague Doctor," is a haunting instrumental piece that perfectly captures the dread and terror of the titular figure.
