“Gnosis is much more than just a damn good Black Metal album.
It is an artistic statement that speaks to all that Black Metal can and should be.
One that has the potential to ring out through the ages.”

8 / 10
“At turns progressive, psychedelic, melodic, atmospheric, and ambient, it’s a release that revels in diversity.
While it’s a cerebral journey that requires multiple close listens, it’s also incredibly rewarding.”
(The Metal Observer)
“Gnosis is a masterpiece.”
(Nine Circles)
