With songs going on for over 15 minutes, they do quite a lot in its duration, languidly traversing various realms, putting the emphasis on creating a meditative, transcendent atmosphere more than anything else. The music naturally evolves within each of the songs as they progress, and it isn't fatiguing just because it's done in such an intuitive manner. "Ritual of Split Tongues" is an astounding album where multiple influences converge to create music that's at once expansive, stirring, and dissonant, and lingers on in the mind for longer than one would think.
