Hastur 1 is the best album Cryo came up with. When that guitar rhythm comes in, you just know this album is quality. kevybluesy

Another fantastic Cryo Chamber Collaboration; nearly 2hrs of Dark Ambient music just the way I like it, with menace, foreboding, and apprehension, to the fore. pf22

Tsathoggua
by Cryo Chamber Collaboration

supported by 7 fans who also own “Baffling Beasts: 15 Tales of Weird Creatures”

What an exceptional collaboration, I loved it in every way. Dark undertones, ritualistic elements, a great cinematic feel and immersion into the chasms. Couldn't ask for anything more. elmoantoncantor

Yog-Sothoth
by Cryo Chamber Collaboration

supported by 7 fans who also own “Baffling Beasts: 15 Tales of Weird Creatures”

Yog-Sothoth. The thought of something lurking beyond time and space, seeing and knowing everything and all in existence at any given time, is deeply unsettling and yet fascinating. This outermost, outerworldly feeling is being transported in a good way. Part 1 is good, but Part 2 indeed sounds like I would imagine The Lurker at the Threshold to feel, if he felt anything. An outerworldly, cosmic and desolate piece of dark ambient. David Fischer
