Ao longo dos anos em que os irlandeses Wreck Of The Hesperus têm estado em actividade, habituamo-nos a duas coisas: primeiro, a trabalhos extremos. Segundo, a não sabermos quão extrema poderá ser a novidade que se segue por parte deste trio atormentador de almas. Tem sido assim desde a demo 'Terminal Dirge' ou, se preferirem, do EP 'Eulogy For The Sewer Dwellers' e o seguintes lampejos de actividade são a prova que a banda de Dublin reforça a sua postura no panorama metálico irlandês e europeu.
Chegados a 2011, os três temas que compõem este 'Light Rotting Out' confirmam o exposto e, também, o aumento do grau de insanidade musical e visceralidade patente em cada descarga musical ou vociferada por AC Rottt. O podredo instala-se ao longo destes 40 minutos, em doses colossais, directas e incisivas, como são os casos de 'Kill The Monument' e 'Cess Pit People'. O terceiro e último tema, 'The Holy Rheum', dividido em duas partes, é ligeiramente mais comedido - na falta de um termo mais adequado -, onde há espaço para dar largas à introdução de um saxofone em 'I - Night Of Negative Stars', adensando o clima doentio já existente e à presença, discreta mas magnânime no seu tom muito pregadordoapocalipse, de Albert Witchfinder, na segunda parte, 'II - Hologram Law', onde a letra mais não é do que uma adaptação do Salmo 102. Apesar disso, em nada se desprende dos dois primeiros assombros, mostrando que 'Light Rotting Out' é, na nossa opinião, o trabalho mais conseguido da banda e que os pode anunciar como um dos projectos cimeiros das correntes mais extremas das franjas do Doom Metal. Dizer que estamos perante Funeral Doom é bastante redutor, pois aqui abraçam-se estilos como o Sludge mais sujo e bruto e Ambient/Drone, conferindo um tom algo apocalíptico e obscuro às músicas.
A par dos Murkrat, este poderá ser um dos álbuns que mais nos chamou à atenção ao longo deste ano e, curiosamente, chegam ao mercado com o selo da britânica Aesthetic Death, que preparou um artwork bem especial para este trabalho, digno de peça de colecção. (17.5/20)

Over the years, the Irish Wreck Of The Hesperus accustomed us two things: first, to wait for extreme records. Second, we do not know how extreme can be a novelty from this tantalizing trio of souls. It's been like this since the demo 'Terminal Dirge' or, if you prefer, the EP 'Eulogy For The Sewer Dwellers' and following flashes of activity are the proof that the band from Dublin strengthens its position in the Irish and European metal scene.
Arrived in 2011, the three themes that compose this 'Light Rotting Out' confirm the above and also the increased degree of musical insanity and visceral patent in each discharge or ranted by AC Rottt. This rotting sounds settles over the 40 minutes in huge doses, direct and incisive, as in the case of 'Kill The Monument' and 'People Cess Pit'. The third and last song, 'The Holy Rheum', divided in two parts, is slightly more restrained – in the lack of a better term - where there is room for unlocking the introduction of a saxophone in 'I - Night Of Negative Stars ', densifying the existing unhealthy climate and the presence, quiet but very magnanimous in their tone of preacheroftheapocalypse, Albert Witchfinder, in the second part,' II - Hologram Law ', where the lyrics are nothing more than an adaptation of Psalm 102. Nevertheless, it doesn’t comes off the first two astonishing tracks, showing that 'Light Rotting Out' is, in our opinion, the band's most accomplished work and that can advertise as one of the top list of current projects of the more extreme fringes of Doom Metal . To say that we are facing a Funeral Doom album is very reductive, because here they embrace styles like Sludge, the rude and gross, or Ambient/Drone, giving a somewhat apocalyptic and obscure tone to the songs.
Together with Murkrat, this may be one of the albums that most caught our attention this year and, interestingly, achieves the market with the seal of the British Aesthetic Death, who prepared a very special artwork for this work, worthy piece of collection. (17.5/20)
