AMAZING album!!! 1996 Release on Relapse Records. Two LPs. Includes booklet. Cool Gatefold jacket. Mint condition - except very minor wear on the bottom of jacket.
From History of Music - "Continuing Neurosis' evolution, Through Silver In Blood (Relapse, 1996) outperforms Enemy Of The Sun in terms of musical construction and sheer emotional power. The 12-minute title-track is a concentrate of everything that makes Neurosis such an extreme experience: tribal drums, terrifying riffs, death-metal vocals. The music teeters on the edge of the psychic abyss, like King Crimson's 21st Century Schizoid Man played by 21st century schizoid men, and then relents into an agonizing declamation set in a desolate soundscape. Another 12-minute nightmare, Purify, exhales a loudly stoned, Hendrix-ian blues before erupting with evil riffs and manic screams; until the sound fades in a surreal sonata for clangs, bagpipes and tribal beat. The same mood is reflected in the shorter tracks, whose intensity is simply suicidal. Eye and especially Locust Star are mini-opuses of utter dejection, disassembled songs that seem to be falling from the moon.
Aeon has a different feel, because the spasmodic tension is released in Pink Floyd-ian calm and then in utter cosmic panic. Enclosure In Flame is the lengthy ceremony that closes the album, the musical equivalent of piercing an eye with a blazing blade. Each of these complex scores materializes slowly, following a few minutes of instrumental introduction a` la Tribes Of Neurot. Music has never been so black."
