Upon hearing ‘Decrepit Flesh Relic’, the first album from Civerous, one was left with a feeling of intense suffocating weight and agonal prostration in the service of bone-breaking death hymns. With the towering new album, ‘Maze Envy’, LA’s most creatively destructive Death / Doom ensemble let loose a freshly evolved but no less brutal conflagration of immersive horror and morbid lamentation.
Where Death / Doom may often stay in safe and unadventerous realms of narrow focus, Maze Envy’ presents a more far-reaching breadth of ambition, where unusual technicality, progressive atmospheres, string flourishes and chaotic mysticism radiate a purple light of the soul’s ascension from the black oceans of dread Civerous inhabit. Chain-dragging dirge, blackened blasting, and the savage ferocity of Lord Foul’s hellish vocal exorcisms exalt ‘Mazy Envy’ with a hellish grandeur within its myriad paths to oblivion.
With a massively crushing sound, ‘Maze Envy’ is end times music for an age in which that reckoning feels unfathomably close. Civerous batter the senses into a state of labyrinthian turmoil from which emergence is ever more implausible.

Stank-face the entire listen. This is f'n gnarly🤘🤘🤘
Fantastic, dreary at moments with intensity panic and anxiety like you’re in a maze
Man, that eerie beginning... perked my ears up immediately. Amazing track! This album is going to decimate all.
Been loving 20 Buck Spin's catalog! Pre-ordered this album. I can't wait!
Another day... another 20 Buck Banger.
Can't wait for this masterpiece 🤘
The beginning melted my face off
Absolutely gorgeous
I can get over how visceral the Civerous listening experience is. There are very few bands I've come across with this unique approach to DM, but Civerous is absolutely going on my end of year list if the rest of Maze Envy is as incredible as both singles. The only other bands I can think of with a similarly unique approach off the top of my head are Inter Arma and Haunter.
Sewerable!!!!
Tremendous! 🤘💀🤘
So fucking good, love the production.
Yay
LET'S GOOOOO!
