The Baneful Choir is Teitanblood's third full-length album (confirming the rumor that they are ritually releasing their albums every five years, for whatever reason), and one that continues the vile path that they have been traveling. Besides a cacophony of incredibly unsettling bells, horns, marching calls, and the roar of demons, the ambiance is highly claustrophobic and immediately unnerving. This is the soundtrack to everyday life in the seventh ring of Hades, so much so that the listener can almost feel the prickling of flame against flesh and visualize the hot blasting furnaces eager for souls and laughter.
