On this year's gripping effort, Cryo Chamber wrote: "Juk-Shabb is a Great Old One which communicates by changing color and using telepathy. The being is a powerful psionic and has extensive knowledge of magic. The cult of Juk-Shabb was well known for its brutality and sacrifices to appease their deity. The priests of this cult were feared throughout Egypt for their knowledge of dark magic and rituals involving human sacrifice."
Juk-Shabb is available here on Bandcamp both digitally and as a 2CD set with a 16-page booklet diving into the lore behind the record.
