Grigou After listening to this album dozens of times, along with "Those", I can safely say that this is one of the best bands around.

The level of craftsmanship and the attention to details is astounding, and, along with those entrancing melodies, this all contributes to making of "The greater evil" nothing short of a masterpiece.

A suffocating and oppressive one, but a masterpiece nonetheless. Favorite track: No Escape.

Robin ColdCell is one of these lesser known bands, but they somehow managed to release a pretty flawless discography so far. The Greater Evil is no exception, they build upon their trademark sound and expand it. This album is a dark and disturbing journey with a great production and particularly stunning vocals.
Though not from Iceland, I always felt ColdCell capture that trademark dissonant Icelandic sound pretty well. Favorite track: Those.

H.L. I discovered this black diamond based on a friend's recommendation and got caught by the dense darkness this album spreads. "The Greater Evil" is heavy, unpathetic and serious, similar to acts like Borgne or Ov Shadows. Check the soulful "Back to the Ocean" with additional clean screams. Favorite track: Back Into The Ocean.

about

We are born from a ColdCell. Only to become part of a dying species, facing extinction by its own egoism, intolerance and emotional bleakness.
“The Greater Evil” is a heavy heartbroken ode of despair to the futile selfishness of mankind. The reckless disregard for nature and humanity alike. Mankind's sacrifice of reason for the greater evil.
We are extinction’s advocates.
