Feedback

"'Where Blood and Fire Bring Rest' demolishes the previous incarnation of Zao in every way. Forget their past albums; they don't matter. This is a study in well-produced texture: the texture of pleasantly gurgling saliva in black metal vocals, the texture of grinding distortion flowing through vibrating guitar strings. The new Zao is a slower, more thoughtful beast."-The Phantom Tollbooth
