Not heard Ancst since that split they did with Ast, but Discogs tells me they’ve release an unholy amount of records since then. Truth be told I don’t feel so guilty about the flagrant gaps in my knowledge since ‘Ghosts Of The Timeless Void’ seems to pick up where my moth-eaten memories leave off: a hyper-competent mix of icy black metal, steel-toecapped crust and vestigial Shikari-isms. Things surge and storm, showing an admirable refusal to relent as each ravening blur bleeds into the next, and if things risk becoming a tad too faceless they at least temper this with a satisfactory blend of energy, aggression and sound political beliefs.
