Panopticon's "Collapse" appeared on many lists of 2009's Best Black Metal Albums. Combining elements of crust, doom and post-rock, "Collapse" is nonetheless a black metal masterpiece. Now finally released as a double LP containing a bonus track featuring anarchist/crust legend Rob "the Baron" Miller of AMEBIX on vocals. The Baron's contribution to this updated blacked version of the AMEBIX classic, "Beginning of the End," speaks to Panopticon's considerable merit. "Collapse" is Panopticon's second full length, following 3 previous sold-out releases: 2008's self-titled debut and two self-released split CDs. "Way recommend, an exciting new variant of the ever evolving sound of black metal" Aquarius Records "Hailed by multitudes as the best USA black metal album of 2009!" Hells Headbangers |
