Metal Injection reviews EOD: A Tale of Dark Legacy from The Great Old Ones:

Who doesn’t love anything inspired by the likes of HP Lovecraft? That irresistible New England hermit who is responsible for some of horror’s darkest tales and creating the all-powerful Cthulhu has inspired countless artists to interpret his work. Spawning from the depths of Lovecraft’s tales is the newest record from blackened-death metal heads The Great Old Ones, EOD: A Tale of Dark Legacy (Season of Mist). What EOD ends up pulling off effectively is a combination of sound that 1). Comes off heavy and thrilling, and 2). Pays excellent tribute to the vibes and aura of Lovecraft.
