Commended by Outburn in an 8/10 review for its “depressingdynamics topped by ethereal wonderment,” Constantinople wasreleased stateside via Neurot Recordings late this Spring andcontinues to reap critical accolades from fans and critics alike. A collusionof musical forces precipitated by the haunting and inimitable vocal prowess ofsinger/bassist Sera Timms (Black Math Horseman), IDES OF GEMINI paintdark black tapestries of sound that are at once delicate and menacing.
“…a dirg-y doom crawl of an album…” – Decibel
“Processional doom, ethereal female harmonies andhigh-strung riffs incite head-bowing, not -banging.” – Spin
“IDES OF GEMINI perceptively balance subtletywith dexterity, appreciating that music with this much emotive potentialrequires poise and sagacity. “ – Hellbound
“…darkly beautiful…” – Pitchfork
“…haunting and intriguing…” – The 1^st Five
“…a proverbial treasure chest in terms of atmosphere,ideas and contrasting musical textures…original and breathtaking.” – About.com
“Their accretion of small musical gestures invertsmetal’s normal use of space. They imply terror without ever exposing it. Eachsong is an accumulation of outlines, a sort of sonic daguerreotype.” –MetalSucks
“…music that calls to mind deserts and tundras, angryghosts emerging from the ether.” – RVA Mag
“Whereas Black Math Horseman makes you feel as if you’vetaken a wrong turn into a desolate medieval village, illuminated by the flickerof mere lanterns, IDES OF GEMINI hovers above completedarkness in a realm that can only be felt by those who welcome it.” – This IsNot A Scene
