A WORLD IN THEIR SCREAMS

A World In their Screams is the final Elend album, their final planned five-album arc being contracted so this third piece covers all the ground they wanted to cover in parts three to five of the series. This is somewhat to the album's benefit, because it forces them to trim the fat and condense their ideas somewhat, It also has the highest production values, to my ears at least, of any of their material, which is a bit of a help. It's probably the most rounded of the Elend albums, though the Art Zoyd-esque excursions from the previous release seem to have been dialled back, which is a bid of a shame.
