Tanjiir's debut album is an exhilarating piece of post-metal best listened to in a dark room while rain patters the glass of a nearby window. The soaring guitars serve as the backbone to the band's identity as they traverse through 5 experimental and interestingly arranged yet entirely distinctive pieces. While there's no dip in quality across the album, my favourite tracks are "Against the Backbone of Night" and the aptly titled "Hypergiant", which feels both adrenaline-rushing and colossal.

Litany is an other-worldly composition that stirs incredible emotion using manipulated vocal textures. The choirs of sound feel as giant as a wave crashing down in a turbulent storm, and yet it also has the remarkable effect of conjuring calmness and tranquility.
