[*Signed*] Cult Burial - Collapse of Pattern, Reverence of Dust - Green/Black Marble Vinyl LP

"“The Religion of an Oath, ” writes Ralph Cudworth in 1678, “is a Necessary Vinculum of Civil Society.” Similarly, George Grote, in 1876’s Fragments on Ethical Subjects, tells us, “Intimate connection drives us to conceive an ideal vinculum.” It is these various breaking bonds, these cleaving vincula that expand from our internal arrangements and stories we tell ourselves through interpersonal links between individuals to the shared fantasies, ideas, beliefs, and bases for reality that are meant to form cohesive, manageable, and stable societies, that Cult Burial rightly document as dissolved, devastated, and destroyed. “Vincula” sets the tone for an album that takes as its task the difficult work of making sense of the unmaking of meaning. But if—and, Cult Burial understands this perfectly—”the vincula of the Intellectual World are principally formulas of invocation” and thus nothing more than appeal conjuration, or supplication, what, precisely, can our faith be in those supposedly unbreakable bonds that are all the time either coming undone or being ripped apart? How does one keep going? On what basis? This is why we might revere dust. Scattered eternally to the winds yet collected together just enough to maintain some sense of unity or identity, dust remains. It comes after collapse. It rises, disperses, adheres, settles."

"Collapse of Pattern, Reverence of Dust is thus just the thing for those dark dwellers who only crawl out of their holes in the deepest darkness. A damn powerful performance!" 92/100

"Just unmitigated heaviness and a huge step-up in musicianship and production compared to the band’s last album. If you want a true, creative and complex band that is picking up the torch of black metal/death creativity that bands like Anaal Nathrakh were doing, this is the band to follow." Rated 5/5

"Cult Burial have crafted something genuinely special here. Sophisticated, emotionally complex, and utterly uncompromising in its vision."
A Certain Taste acertaintastebm.blogspot.com/2025/09/album-review-cult-burial-collapse-of.html

"My words don't do this album the justice it deserves. If you want powerful, intelligently constructed music that constantly challenges and provokes you....then buy the bloody thing now."

"Collapse of Pattern, Reverence of Dust is a handbook of annihilation. It teaches that all bonds rot, all beauty withers, and that all structures fail. Raise your horns, ye faithful of decay, for Cult Burial has given us the gospel of dust."
