Lost Hours from Atlanta, Georgia offer a dark take on post metal which includes doom, sludge, and drone elements as the main ingredients. … And Masses Spat Upon All That is Holy is part of the band's EP, IV: The Silence of the Perpetual Choir in Heaven, originally released in 2018, expected to be pressed on vinyl for the first time soon, and out through Propitious Artifact.
The seventeen-plus-minute epic is a harrowing journey that alternates between atmospheric moments, crushing weightiness, and full-on thrilling sentimentality via a deftly blended, eclectic mix of styles. It's a piece which leaves a powerful impression, both vocally and instrumentally, and distinguishes the band's edginess in great detail.
